The D60 is locked and geared. On to the 10.5

Couldn't get the horn to fit because the hub adapter wasn't deep enough. It doesn't work anyway so I filled the hole with a thick piece of orange rubber from behind and will have to address the horn another time.

It does. The diameter is a little less than an inch smaller, should be nice.

Not much happening on the B2 front, but my steering wheel came in. It's a cheapie but will be much more pleasant than the nasty stock one in it now. Still waiting on my adapter hub though.

Isuzu 4BD1T. I have an old thread here where I was putting it into a 01 Sport. It's now sitting in a 04 F150.

That's a good pairing. I'd like to find an EB to put a 2.3 ecoboost into. Possibly even just a tub and put it on an IFS Explorer frame. I've seen one done and it fit pretty well.

That's an unusual engine to swap into anything. But you may recognize something here.

I'm going to follow this guide tomorrow. https://www.broncocorral.com/tech_library/ford-bronco-ii-headlight-switch-wiring-testing/#Melted%20Ford%20Headlight%20Switch%20Connector

I'm not entire sure what fuse is for the headlights but they're all good. My high beams do work. But no low beams, no instrument illumination, and no tails.

Heck of a find!

Last night I hopped in the old girl for the first time in the dark and found I have no headlights. Hmmm. Hopefully it's just a fuse. Won't have time to dig in until tomorrow.

On my list for deletion since they only half work now. I picked up a couple manual doors, going to transfer the guts into these then cut those down to half doors. I think I have a set of explorer visors around still, looks like they're getting used now.

SxS seats. They fit the B2 sliders with a small adapter.

Thanks @410Fortune. The gauge style doesn't matter a whole lot, I just have a soft spot for gen 2 gauges. Function is ultimately more important. I might just find the missing dash trim from the junkyard and spray bomb the whole thing black, I'm not a fan of tan and faux wood. There's what...

I agree. Also since it is a trail-only rig it added a whole nother element I've never had, not worrying about body damage. I haven't got any yet, but being able to hammer down on muddy rocks and roots inches from a tree was fun. I was with a buddy in a new Bronco and there was one obstacle it...

Aussies in both. I figure someone will give them a good home when I'm done.

So I've heard this was a somewhat famous rig on broncoii.org back in the day. I picked it up in October last year in southwest WA from the builder and immediately stopped at Elbe before heading home. It's geared a little high compared to my 21 but it got around great and was a riot. It has a...

All my Explorers are gone, sold the ST to help fund the 21 and sold the 07 because it was a never ending money pit. 21 Badlands, 2.3 7MT. 2.5" lift, 35" Mickey ATZ for general use and 37" Swamper SX2 for play.

It was rear ended shortly after the 5.0 swap and totaled. I bought it back and rolled the payout into the suspension work. The engine in it is pretty fresh and ran great, it just started dumping coolant out the front. I changed the water pump and it still leaked from behind the timing cover so...

Have you gotten any further on the old beast? I moved on from it back then to buy a new Bronco. Then I bought a B2 to build into a trail rig, and I started wishing I still had the ST to build instead.

I never ended up installing the tank but now i want to put it in my sport trac to free up room for a 4 link. The fuel pump assembly will take some modification, mine bolts down instead of the locking ring.

I found a nice little defrost switch from a crown vic that I think I'm going to put next to the mirror adjust controls instead of using the radio bezel switch since I originally wanted a second fog light switch there to run a rear light bar.

From what I've seen 300k is the general upper limit for most OHV 4.0s and 300k should be the expected life for a 5.0. It's pretty well known that after 500hp from a 5.0 you're playing with fire. What a 4.6 piston is capable of does not make an argument for or against a 5.0 piston.

This is how mine looked. I've since converted to manual shift so I'm using an AWD bezel.
