Nope. There is actually no hole. The air intake is behind the panel so it basically isn't getting any fresh air. This just gives it a chance to get more cool air eaiser.

And do you think that maybe I can find them there??
Try this link out for the wreckers searches. Sometimes it is cheaper and faster to have it shipped in, even though you don't get to see or touch the part till later.
Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market

With all those lights your almost gonna be as bright as a train.

That one has alot of stuff. Don't recall alot of Bronco II's but they had quite a few Exploders.

Well I had a look around the back yard today and wasnt able to find the correct coil spacers. I have the ones that you can mount a shock onto.
So I went to Ford to see if you were right there Kona. And they told me that the right side was $50bucks and they had to get it from Ontario and the Left side would cost me $130 bucks and had to get it from vintage ford in the States. Like you were saying. How ever I went to the wreckers that I use to work at many moons ago . Found a pair and they cost me 40bucks for both so I figured that was a bonus. Theres more here if you need a pair there Kona.

I would not mind having a set to have options but I do not need them. My old springs were done, finis, toast thrashed even. The ride with the new springs and tires is unbelievable!
