I have been building this for about 8 months now. Taking my time and hoping it will be ready to drive again this summer. I drove it one summer and decide it was time to make it respectable.
40,000 original miles EFI 302, 3 speed, 35" MTR's, hydroboost brakes.
What kind of tubing bender do you use ? I'm trying to figure out what to buy summit has one on sale right know from woodward fab but know nothing about benders ?
My mom died last Thursday from cancer so I have had a few days off work. Spent most of it with family and yesterday after my relationship with my girlfriend went south I had to do something.
So I started working on the Bronco, pulled out the trans and transfer case to swap in the 4r70w that I have had for a few years.
Also debating on putting the motor from the same donor as the trans, a '99 mountaineer.
Need to find out if the flywheel from the new motor will work on the old and if the dampner needs to swapped out as well.
The trans and transfer case are in, waiting for a crossmember and need to make a mount for the 205. Have an issue with the long tube headers, either need to bend the passenger side header to try and get it off the bellhousing and frame rail or get a different set and possibly shorties.
She fired up last night. Kinda loud without the exhaust being hooked up but I was too excited to wait.
Waiting to hear back from Poly about the 205 yokes I ordered, the dimensions are a little off and the machined part goes past the seal before they bottom out.
Piping in a little late but I love the tube work and welding
