Progress, that's good Aaron! I know what you mean on waiting on parts, I was waiting on some valve locks from summit to put my heads together. Supposed to be here thursday. They are still snowed in in minneapolis..

Nice work Aaron! I am sub'd and following. I am anxious to see the progress. I ahve had the same kind of frustration with mine this week. A broken oil cap led to an alignment, to new tires, only to find out my entire front end needs to be redone. I'll be doing everything except the axle pivot bushings I guess. Guess Gabe was right...you needed some sunshine! Beer always helps too...

thanks,I really took a lot from the driven diesel kit. its jic parker push loc with 401 hose. its all very affordable. I cant spend the farm on this..too many other projecs.
byron. The pivot bushings are so very important to tire wear. I am doing them and radius arm bushings on the bronco.the ball joints maybe though they seem nice and tight.The new tires are just too expensive to take any chances at all. I sure wish it had a straight axle under it but im not getting into any more projects until i am caught up.

I should have clarified. I'll be getting them done. I just won't be the one doing them. If I had help, then I would. I'll be doing ball joints and radius arm bushings, but the axle pivots look to be a two man job. If anyone has input, I'd love to hear it! Sorry for the hijack Aaron...back to regularly scheduled thread commenting.
