That looks cool! Should be a neat project.

Welcome!

That was a nice bike! I still be riding if I could.

Very cool! Neat picture!

The interior is nice! One thing I'm happy about on my Bronco is the dash isn't cracked, it's interior is in really good shape.

If you just want to check that the timing marks are correct . You can use a pencil in the spark plug hole while feeling the piston with the pencil, and bring the number one cylinder up to TDC on the compression stroke, and find the spot where the piston doesn't move and check if your marks are on.

No pictures of the interior or engine that I saw. A big Buy It Now price! The bow does it for me though!

Welcome!

Awesome! What a machine!

Gary, The way to initiate the test, according to my book at least, is to wait until the KOER test is complete and clear, and then you give the accelerator pedal a 1/4 tap, and then the test will start. It's very noticeable when under test...the RPM's ramp up, and the engine misses and shakes as it drops each cylinder out individually. It does each cylinder, about 5 seconds each with about 5 seconds between each test. You'll get a code between 10-80 if it finds a cylinder out of balance, and a code 90 if they're all good;). That's cool! I don't remember that test when I tested my Bronco. Speaking of which, I haven't had my tester hooked up forever. Everything has just been working.

Another thing in my opinion, is to service it as per the factory manual. Those hubs aren't load bearing and don't require a bunch of grease. The auto hubs on my Bronco call for submerging the hub in ATF and letting it drip before install. Folks will complain that those auto hubs don't work when it's cold and they pack them with wheel bearing grease!

Welcome!

I wish, but not in the cards right now.

They added more pictures. I didn't notice the roll bar before.

Very nice truck! But I agree, 20K, not seeing it get that much.

Welcome!

Welcome!

Welcome!

I suppose you’re thinking of Dane? That's not me with that nice truck! Guess I should get that Bronco!

On your noise, have you checked the front wheel bearings? My 92 Bronco was making a noise at speed and I cleaned, inspected and repacked the front bearings twice. Finally replaced the bearings and races and used some good old NLGI #2 grease and it solved the issue.

Ralph, is that an optional manual overdrive transmission? Edit: Typo! Edit again: After some research, looks like the 82 Bronco came with a 4 speed manual OD or the AOD.

That's cool! It was recommended to run MT90 in a 1987 4runner I used to own, it made a difference. Good stuff!
