    4 Weel Drive Problem

    Its a new one, I really dont wanna take a hammer to it. The fuse was for the inside lights, which dont cut off (no wonder it was blown). Leaving it off the battery for an hr did nothing. I checked the wireing in the dashboard and found nothing odd, no frayed or bent wires, no broke wires, 1...

    4 Weel Drive Problem

    Same problem I have the exact same problem. My radio doesnt work, and neither does my 4x4. I though the radio was fried so i tossed it. For the 4x4, I replaced the shift motor (today), and it still doesnt work. I hit the button, and the unit in the back of the truck (black box) makes a...

    Name my problems you see...

    Its a new spring, thats about 5 inches longer than the old stock springs. My tire hits the radius arm when I max the steering, thats what the rub mark is. The drop down brackets are as far as they go, or so that alignment place told me. Not sure how to fix the tires rubbing (unless i get the...

    Name my problems you see...

    Springs, radius arm brackets, shocks. Stuff I didnt use were the bronco drop down brackets, and rear blocks. Im sure I was missing parts, paid a dirt cheap price for the kit. The dropdown brackets I got from jcw nearly tripled the cost of the lift heh. Minus rims and wheels your lookin at...

    Rear Shock Mounts

    Rear Shock Mounts

    Had to use the old crosspins for the top mount (was a pain to get out but they work fine). Problem im running into now is which hole to use of the old sway bar bracket. The top one gives me 3inches of upward travel on the shocks (top mount to where the bar goes into the shock itself, rancho...
