Good looking ride, man. I'd totally rock that thing. Glad you got it all sorted and back to 100%.

Well, pulled the dash Sunday for the ol' broken pass side tab fix. Since Ford quit selling it bronco graveyard luckily sells a replacement. No more rattling and swapped in some fresh door speakers.
If only I could make my radio work correctly now. Radius arm bushings on order for the creaking front end. Suxs because to look at them they should be good. Oh well, I have yet to own a twin I that I didn't put a set in lol All otherwise is good. Using no oil or cool and and no leaks. Life is good! |
It makes my heart soooo happy to see you love this truck like this. Well done sir. My grandfather would absolutely love seeing this. Thank you

well the radius arm bushings really started making noise. They really weren't terrible once apart. I'm a lil perplexed but hey they are done now. |

see that piece between the spring and metal centering part? That's a plastic spring centering deal. Yea that's the pass side.. It's deteoirated on driver's side. That's letting the spring contact the spindle. |
|
Need a replacement for the driver's side. I found that the spring is off center and actually contacting the spindle. Now that's an odd noise.
|
That's a little odd... Those radius arm bushings don't really look all that bad, either.

Oh ,rust is not an issue lol.
Yea Nate,the back up plastic ring was the worst offender. I sprayed some lube on it and noise stopped mostly for a few days. It's all good tho,new Moog were like 25$ and then these deals are 12$ each. This deal will be in the books tomorrow. |
Welp, I have been kicked in the jewels for 2 weeks now. This noise is a fun one to find. Last night I made a brake thru finally. The fender to door gap has always been wide at the bottom. I was suspect of that and the rear cab mounts we're for sure sagged.
Long story short the cab is basically sitting on the upper trans crossmember bolts. That makes an odd groaning,popping noise that's hard to duplicate when you try to find. I guess this coming week I'll Rob Clifford's body mounts to fix this deal. No loss since Clifford will never get back together any way. |
