Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Installed my Explorer windshield washer / radiator overflow tank. Also added all new lines to and from the tank. It really cleaned up that area of my engine compartment and looks like it came from the factory that way.
Thanks to Viperwolf for the info on the tank. Great Mod!!!!
Tonight I'll be adding spring loaded needles & seats and whistle tubes to my Holley to help out in the hills.

That Explorer tank looks new - did you Armor All it? Was it in a 2012 Explorer?

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
I like that, I'm missing all the components for the wash and also the overflow so I think I'll be following that route as well. Anything to look for besides looking for a 90's explorer setup?

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Goldenboy - Were you driving the bronco? A six speed would be sweet. Not sure how the clutch was limitting 2 gears........Were you always running high RPM's cruising in 4th, or was there a huge gear drop from 2nd to 5th? Curious to see this one.

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Picked it up from the frame shop today. They measured up down and at every angle and can't find any issue with the frame. Not sure what the next step is.
Called Roadrunner Fab to get an ETA on my powdercoating but he couldn't give me a firm date. I was hoping to have it today for the weekend:(

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Thanks to Classic69Bronco who gave me a donor Wshield frame...Today was spent removing the old WS...straightening the new one and reworking some of the problem areas on the new WS. At the end of the day...I have a straight frame that's rewelded in the corners, smoothed, and painted on one side...
I have to say up front that the WS frame I had had the worst rot Ive ever seen at the bottom...and whoever decided that 38 spot welds was what it would take to keep the WS frame on needs smacked in the head...
and YES...I USED A FORKLIFT TO PULL MY WS FRAME STRAIGHT...whatever works!

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
(yesterday) got her all ready for today's wheelin trip
checked all the fluids and was surprised to find it 2 quarts low on oil so I spent time trying to track down the leak(s)
all I could find was the oil sender leaking (slightly) and even smaller leaks at the valve covers. I guess I will have to keep my eye on it more.

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Spent last night mounting CB and fuel regulator and then neither one worked. Time to go tune them in before the wheeling trip.

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Drove it around the property and up a real steep incline. No issues. Gotta get my roll bar, soft top, rear seat and disk brakes now. I also need to get new tires and wheel flares. JP
