I didn't see it either. Must've been some BS posted on it and they deleted it or one of the mods was being an ***. Who knows..

I didn't do anything to the Bronco today. My wife drove it to work because her car would not start this morning.

I am getting ready to take the Bronk and my son to the Dentist today.
When I get home tonight I will have almost 200 more miles on it.
We do this 2 or 3 times a month. Like a Timex, she just keeps on ticking.
Yes I need to do some work on her if and when we get a break from the
damn wind and rain. I am nursing an ear ache/infection thing and don't
really want to go out in this weather. But The Bronk has a great heater
and I wear a hearing aid so I hope It don't get any worse. Gonna sleep
good tonight.

Now, after the trip to town yesterday I have an ear ache in both ears.
I did get some windshield to mirror glue and will re install the inside
mirror as soon as I dare go back out in the cold air.

Pain Sucks.

I started swapping front and rear differentials (and the front leafspring suspension) from a 85 f350 onto my 89 bronco

I replaced my thermostat, turns out the prev. owner had a 165f thermostat in there. I then noticed why I couldn't get hot air through the vents. PO unhooked the heater lines from the heater core and just plumbed the two lines together. Not sure why at all someone would do that. Heater core doesn't leak or anything. Now I need to clean out the vents and such so I can get air coming out of more than just the defrost.

I managed to remove two boxes from the motor that were on the top of the pile of crap that has been piled on it over the last several weeks...

I had 33"s installed then removed my front sway bar and checked the transfer case oil level. Love this truck.

As you may have heard in the News, We are flooding all over
up here. But the Bronk made a 200 mile round trip to town for
a little girls birthday party like the champ it is. I also love my
truck.

Replaced the valve cover gaskets and painted the valve covers while they were off. Finally I can walk up to the Bronco without a big oil spot underneath it

Looks pretty good! I've wanted new ones on my 78 but it's low on the priorities. Right now in fact, the driverside seems to be hitting the firewall last time I checked.
