what have you wrenched on your bronco(s) today?

[chuzie]

Okay. Why would you ask that? Is there an issue.

Torch the rubber first.

Thank you that worked perfectly after I got the rubber out I was able to grind the top off and it fell right out. That should work for the front 4 body mounts as well hadn't really thought about them yet but this saves me even thinking about them.

Ok got 2 more body mounts off and will save the last two till after I pull the engine. Just a quick question the little clips that are on the inside of the frame rail that hold like the fuel lines, electrical and maybe brake lines are those pop in clips or screw in clips or bolt in or something else? Didn't see a head on them so wasn't exactly sure.

[chuzie]

Rivet.

You can't remove those clips without destroying them. I choose to use insulated rubber clamps instead of those clips.

[wepuckett]

Ok since I can't remove them do I need to worry about them being on the frame still if I am going to have the frame sand blasted or media blasted? I figure I can use a screwdriver and lightly pry them up to remove whatever is under them.

[chuzie]

Depends on condition. Give it a shot. If you break one just remove all and replace with newer variant. Blasting should be fine but, again, conditional.

Found my rear end leak. Nothing I can do unless I swap support. That can wait for lower gears!

JB weld. Not a moving part and that small piece will come apart when you want it to.

I managed to wire wheel, clean, prep, and POR15 my frame, D30, 9", and radius arms today. Wouldn't have gotten all that done but SCBronco stopped by to lend a helping hand. Helped so much I even managed to cut some grass before dinner.
