got a visit from ncsubronc today...he showed up in his 1/2 cab(sweet bronco)! i ordered some QA1 heim joints to replace the worn out joints on the tie rod, hope they show up Monday or Tuesday. so after installing the pass side warn hub, we took the bronco around the hood for a drive. pulled into the power lines and crossing a ditch when alot of smoke...THEN FIRE! the whole driver side when up in flames...luckily the new fire extinguisher was ready and easily at reach. got the fire out, backed out of the ditch, and replaced the hose that blew off. put a quart of PS fluid in it to get it back to the garage. glad it happened today and not next week at URE. need to get a compression fitting to make this hose more fool proof. thats twice it came off and caught fire. thanks for the help Jeremy!
