how about an update!
my progress of the past few days
11/21/11
Went to visit my folks, and got on the tractor.
And headed out into the woods
hmm, whats that?
its my new donor rig!
94 F150 with 250,000+ miles on the clock. BUT with a rebuilt 302 with around 20,000 miles. it was retired to wood hauling duty several years ago. after the shifter cable broke, my stepfather drove it into the woods one last time, and left it there when he went to afghanistan about 2 years ago. when he came back, he didn't have time to mess with it, so it sat. I asked him how much he wanted for it, and he said to just haul it off.
So I did.
Used my mom's truck, since this a little too much for my 4.6 with 3.55 gears.
So here it sits now
my stepfather hauled the brown b2 back to their place, and i am going to cut my own little "storage area" in a small clearing just past where the f150 was parked in the first pics.
This means my plans have changed again. oh well, I'm having fun, and that's all that matters.
The Bronco is getting (almost) the entire wiring harness, motor, fuel injection, and some other goodies from the f150. its free, its in good shape, and its sitting right here.
I have already disconnected, labeled, and removed the entire wiring harness from inside the cab, and under the hood of, the B2.
Now i am removing the "cab side" wiring from the F150, and labeling everything. kinda rainy lately, and thats something i can work on and stay dry. once i swap that over, then i'll work on "engine side" wiring and the fuel lines.
