The whole lot including the visors for $20.00. You just never know what is in the next truck.

What a deal, where was the visor mirror/light getting its power from?

It came out of the old Bronco. Noted it was an XLT and took a shot and looked. The whole inside except the rear seat was nearly stripped clean.

Hard to tell from the photo but, it looks like the rear sway bar assembly is still on the Bronco.

I put a '79 Bronco rear sway bar on my '69 F100 Ranger and my frame isn't even the 'right width' for this component (my F100 Bumpside's rear frame is 4" narrower than a Dentside F100/F250 frame). On a Dentside F100/F150 though, this would be a very easy install.

If the Bronco rear sway bar is still there, it would be a very good item to go back and get --whether you used it for yourself or, whether you had it to sell or use for barter material.

Grab those cab lights, side mirrors, and brake booster/MC from the F350. And if it had dual battery set-up and it's not rust out get it too. Check out the radiator and trans cooler, might be worth grabbing!?

Nice score on the other stuff!!

Thanks for the great advice. I am going back to get the cab lights. Pressed for time. Yard was about to close. The mirrors on the F350 are pretty rusty. The MC is gone. Never thought to look for the dual battery set up. The Bronco was in a muddy spot due to the recent snow melt. But Thanks to Ultra Ranger I was "swayed" to get the bar. Once the ground freezes again , it will be easier and safer to get it off. Thanks again.

Being that it's a Bronco, and if the 3rd member is still in the 9-inch rear end, good chance it has a 31-spline 4-pinion Traction-Lok differential in it. That would be a really good item to have.

If the Bronco has a front sway bar (probably does since it has a rear one), it would be a nice item to have for someone that has a Dentside F100/F150 4x4 truck.

It looks slightly damaged, but Bronco caps are really hard to find.
