what have you wrenched on your bronco(s) today?
Horn started blowing by itself today. I am always worried about fires so I tore it down as soon as I got home. Contact pin wore slap out and spring came off. Anyone know the correct term for this part so I can buy another one?

Yea I figured out that it's actually part of the turn signal switch which I really don't feel like replacing.

So many things I need to attend to and trying to figure out what to get at next. So today I just road some of the back roads in the bronc for awhile and then picked up a friend and let him drive me for a bit. Locker or new roll bar to fit the half cab or 435 or what to do next. I did pick up a stock rim today and got a used 33 inch spare. So today other that finishing the axle bearing I just spent some time trying to get a plan together. Maybe tomorrow I will iron one out.

i would say 435....gearing is the best option!!! that posi in the back worked perfect! then cage/halfcab

Awight Clay you hear the man. I will be ready to pic the 435 up when you are available. Thanks for giving me some direction on how to proceed Chuck.

No problem Dwight, control makes all the difference, any time you can go with gearing...that's the way to go. Now, instead of possibly slipping a clutch, you'll be able to crawl

Found a set of 33x12.5x15 wheels and tires with 25% tread 2 are 8 in wheels and 2 are 10 in wheels, 2 hold air and 2 i need to put air in to see if they hold for $20 tonight picked them up so I can see the size on the Bronco with the lift on it, gonna wait till engine is in to put them on due to clearance in the garage.
