Took out the old cage and test fit the new one, it actually fits really well. Going to be pulling it back out for paint.

Re: First Time Bronco Owner - 1969 Bronco
Very nice ! did you use a disc brake conversion kit for the 9"? if so what brand. I really like those beadlocks where you able to get the tires balanced or are you using bb's. Bronco looks awesome!!

Re: First Time Bronco Owner - 1969 Bronco
Been making progress and hoping to get a lot done over the next month while I am on break. Started picking up stuff for the ZF5 swap:
Have/enroute ZF5 Cross member Master cylinder/clutch rod Clutch pedal Upper shifter Flywheel
Need to get Clutch set Slave cylinder Engine plate (what works?)
Anything I am missing?

Re: First Time Bronco Owner - 1969 Bronco
Do you have the clutch line? Also- the fluid? I recommend the Redline MTL.

Re: First Time Bronco Owner - 1969 Bronco
If you end up buying an Atlas, I have a 3/4" spacer kit that I didn't use. Let me know if you need it.

Re: First Time Bronco Owner - 1969 Bronco
It will be fine, tube work is going to be kind of like the Scout below, all the stock sheet metal will bolt back on. Threw in a shot of the front axle almost done. I am looking forward to seeing how the tube work comes out.

Re: First Time Bronco Owner - 1969 Bronco
Front end waiting on hubs while the motor gets buttoned back up. Went to do the Explorer front dress swap and found some leaks and the need for a new timing chain, gears, and oil pump.

Re: First Time Bronco Owner - 1969 Bronco
I think I am having withdrawals since my Bronco is in the shop getting tube work, etc. done. Got a chance to do some Bronco related work today. Picked up stuff from powder coating and started reassembly. Pedals are now ready for the ZF5 swap and rebuilt with all new bushings and pads.

Re: First Time Bronco Owner - 1969 Bronco
That looks great. I'm jealous, I wish I had a tubing bender (and the skills to use one).

Re: First Time Bronco Owner - 1969 Bronco
Transmission and T-case swap getting started, ended up pulling the motor since it was only bolted to the trans. Having the tubing removable is working out well.
