I knew them Washington folks are inbred. Guy I know that lives in Battle Ground told me about the mass flow of inbreds staying in Washington State.

Anyway... getting this one on topic: I found my front brakes pads are very worn already, and the spindle nuts came loose, hurting the SET 27 bearing in the proccess... which sucks... still, cleaned the bearing and repacked it with grease and seems to be working fine, but I'll replace it when I get to work on those brakes again soon. I wonder if 1 year is a short time for my brakes, as it seems that's what these lasted, Motorcraft pads btw...

Yikes 1 year does seem a bit short. Yet, I guess it depends on how often you drive and how hard you brake.

1 ton, if you have your license then you can't be half my age. That would make you 10 years old.. Last I checked in the US you can't have a license at 10. I happen to only be 20 years old and unfortunately can't even legally drink. Emphasis on "legally".

I replaced the heater core and thermostat. I also went out and got a fan shroud and put that on.

Dylan...squeal like a pig...boy.


Well my Bronco is still the same. Plan to put the 130 amp alternator on soon then the Mark VIII electric fan. When its hot around here..my temp goes to 190 yet I have a 165 thermostat in it. Hmm..



Thinking about getting a motorcycle and use it for a DD and park the Bronco and work on it and drive it on rainy days.

Squeal like a pig huh? Is that code for "you're buying me a life time of Bacon now"?

Also isn't the 130 amp alternator called the 3G? I've also though about putting on in but I've also thought about installing my headers that are sitting in my closet.

I pressed new ball joints into the passenger side knuckle and put a new U joint in the passenger side axle shaft. I managed to only smash one finger while doing all of it.
