It's sooooo great to see another `75, we have the rarest year. There were only 13,125 units of `75's produced. It's always cool to see, when one pops up somewhere. You have a very nice truck there!
Nashville Early Bronco Houston. Find the Premier Edition of BRONCO DRIVER, with that screwed up-no engine-no transmission havin'- "paint everything Neon Chartreuse-ass Yellow Bronco on the cover. (i'm just mad because i didn't get the cover) I'm in the featured article right after the cover truck. However, I did get the cover of Vintage Truck magazine, along with the centerfold. The trucks name is "Ginger", there's a hole story behind the name & the acquisition of the truck, blah blah blah..... I'm trying to get enough good video footage of her, so I can cobble together enough material for a TH-cam video. She's a Ranger package, fully loaded, all original, UN-RESTORED, 45k mile (i bought her with 32k on the clock in`99) truck. With the original manual in the glove box, I use the original keys on the original key fob, the original dealership has all of the service records, and is 15 minutes from my house down Hwy 59. Occasionally I get a little crap, because they think I'm lying, but....F!#!K `EM!! Right about now, you're probably thinking you really want to see this truck.....this is gonna make you want to send me a pipe bomb in the mail!!!..........I bought her for $8k...........
+Cody38Super WHAT?!?!?! Yeah, seriously! Man. Now I don't want to look at any pictures of your truck. That's crazy! Well, if I'm ever in Houston or you're out in Nashville let's get together for a beer at least.
Nashville Early Bronco You actually found it ?!?!?That's fantastic! Thank You sooo much. It may sound odd to some folks that don't understand old cars....but, I know what it feels like to hit the lottery. (except no amount of money can buy what I was lucky enough to find) Thank you again!
Thank you. I got two quotes for 2,500 and 3,000 to do the front suspension. I thought it would be very difficult, but only took three hours to remove everything with me taking my time. Now off to installation
Hey John, is it possible to change the radius arm bushings without dropping the whole axle? Is there enough room when you separate the halves on the axle to slide the arm up/forward to get it out of the rear mount?
Do you think this would be a good first step in trying to resolve some death wobble issues? I looked underneath and some bushings look like some are new and some are probably 30-somehting years old.
Great videos. I'm officially in the weeds with this project and you have been a good help. I'm also a photographer and I do live streaming video stuff for a financial tech company (but nothing really on TH-cam), so I appreciate your handy work there, too. I think I'll just mimic everything you're doing on this channel. I need to redo the wiring eventually. How much of a time commitment was that for you?
+Mark Cafiero yeah definitely! It takes me about 3 times as long to film while I work. It's a pretty big pain in the butt when you are trying to move quick.
+David Baker on James duff site they suggest the 4degree bushing for 1-2 1/2 inch lifts and the 7degree bushing for 3+ inch lifts. So I picked the 7degree off that. Do you know your lift height?
Well I will need new springs, just not sure to stay with stock or go with 2 1/2 Coil Springs. I like the look of the bronco now. Did you lift your bronco?
+David Baker it came with a lift, but it's just blocks in the back and shocks and springs up front. I would like to freshen up the whole thing but it will have to wait. When I do it I'll go with a 3 1/2 inch kit.
It was the rear radius arm bushing so I had to listen to some clunking till I got home to replaced them. The other one crumbled in my hand. Hey it gave me a chance to put in new springs, now it's all good.
+george hirvela Just to let you know, we changed suppliers on those. We had some people have issues, usually because of long periods of the rig sitting. They are all designed to be self lubricated and sitting was their enemy. The ones we use now are downright slippery with oil so it will never be a problem.

Very nice, professional looking video. I have a 1970 Bronco and you've just given me confidence to tackle this job. Thanks and keep the videos coming!
+Jojo Cruz nice! Glad I could inspire you! I will

Not really. And you have to tighten everything so evenly to avoid body lean
Do you think this would be a good first step in trying to resolve some death wobble issues? I looked underneath and some bushings look like some are new and some are probably 30-somehting years old.
+Mark Cafiero yeah this would be a great place to start
Mark Cafiero did you ever solve your death wobble issues?

How do I know if I need to replace my springs?
Thanks for sharing, it really helped me
Are you going to be doing any more videos on this bronco ?
+aydanbilyeu Heck yeah I am! I just finished a Disc Brake swap on the front and just need to finish editing the video
hey i sub'd you what a great job of showing how to do this and going to watch part two i have a 74 bronco and i will have to do this!
+Rockin Pip Thanks man!
How did you come to the 7 degree bushing choice?
+David Baker on James duff site they suggest the 4degree bushing for 1-2 1/2 inch lifts and the 7degree bushing for 3+ inch lifts. So I picked the 7degree off that. Do you know your lift height?
Well i measured using this: www.bcbroncos.com/springheight.pdf
It came out to 7" (stock as the PDF says)
I have a 2inch body lift.
+David Baker do you plan on putting a different lift on anytime soon?
Well I will need new springs, just not sure to stay with stock or go with 2 1/2 Coil Springs. I like the look of the bronco now. Did you lift your bronco?
+David Baker it came with a lift, but it's just blocks in the back and shocks and springs up front. I would like to freshen up the whole thing but it will have to wait. When I do it I'll go with a 3 1/2 inch kit.
I hate to bad mouth anyone but my radius arm bushings from Duff cracked and fell of after a number of years.
george hirvela Oh man! That sucks! What did you end up doing?
It was the rear radius arm bushing so I had to listen to some clunking till I got home to replaced them. The other one crumbled in my hand. Hey it gave me a chance to put in new springs, now it's all good.
george hirvela Man that's crazy, I'll have to watch out. But anything to give you an excuse to replace more parts right!
