Yep thats the old shifter boss on the column. I took the column shifter off and converted to the floor shifter. But it remained three speed. I guess four if you count reverse. Twelve years later and way too much dinero later shifter went back on a Flaming River column but was connected to a...
Hereās a photo from a ā74 as opposed to the ā72 or ā73 shown by OP. You are right, the thing that I said looked like an ignition switch is the shifter boss. Not sure what the big circular thing is. The steering wheel is not original, which is not unusual since a lot of people used after...
My ā74 was three on the tree, RAT tranny. But the steering column shown in the photo is definitely from something else. Looks like an ignition switch on there? EBās always on dash.
Wow, I didnāt know that. Probably worth a look for OPās friend. Mine was ā74 and the seats looked exactly like the photos. So maybe those seats are orig and that sheet is still there. Really good catch.
This. Also another VIN posted on driverās side door jam and also on passenger side frame just rear of engine although that one is hard to see. But they should all match. VIN is best way to identify year. Too many people have messed with these over the years to rely only on features. Uncut...
Ha, I did join MCA just to have access to X-Plan. It was $50, so not that big of a deal. I did get a really cool Mustang magazine, which my wife liked. Sheās a Mustang person and not me. But I have seen a couple posts recently that indicated some got X-Plan discount even though Ford wasnāt...
Love that BCBroncos safari top on your ā68. IMO, the most attractive and functional top for an EB. Somewhere buried deep in classicbroncos.com is a thread where I posted photo install instructions for the BC top. You and your wife have a couple of great looking blue rigs! Congrats and enjoy!
Thanks @North7 for your info in this thread. Perhaps you or someone else can answer a question regarding X-Plan pricing. Back in March I got an e-mail from my dealer stating that they would honor X-plan pricing. I took that to mean they would offer an equivalent discount even if Ford did not...
Looks great OP!
As much time as I spend on this web site, I should know the answer to this, but can anyone say if the trailer package is still a constrained item? Sorry for the hijack OP. Thanks!
I think Iām going to bookmark your post. Then if I ever get in a bad mood, Iāll just read what you wrote and canāt help but feel better! It reminded of Ralphie in A Christmas Story when he finally got the Official Red Ryder carbine 200 shot air rifle. All kidding aside, really happy for you.
Yeah, I agree with you. Looks to me like very little improvement. I couldnāt see much improvement even in the video. I do think his idea of using a butt connector is very clever, just not all that effective.
Yeah, Iāve been wondering about how this would work ever since I saw this thread yesterday. My ā21 WT order was 99ed so when the banks open back up I need to reorder. As of now, Iāll end up ordering pretty much the same thing as before, although Iām considering switching to a soft top to...
Many thanks for the pics Doug. I really enjoyed wheeling with you. All of your comments in this thread are spot on. I already stole the pic you took when I got the driverās side rear wheel up in the air. Just an all around really fun day and renewed my desire for a Bronco. Wish I could get...
