Catching up: My Bronco II build thread

That sucks about the title on the '84. Great vehicle finds over all though!

I was on a run there for a little bit. It’s been pretty dry lately.

Way back up in the thread I think you put a 4.10 rearend out of a ranger into your Bronco. Did you wack the spring pads off the ranger housing and move them to match the Bronco? I just did a ranger 7.5 swap on my Bronco, and ran into the problem of the pads being wider on the Bronco than the ranger. I forced the springs in and made it fit, but now looking at the pinion angle on the ranger rearend, its a little low. Don't know if it's going to give me problems or not, the u-joint at the diff is at a fairly radical angle. It's not pointing up like the Bronco rearend was. I have a feeling I am going to be redoing the spring pads, widening them and fixing the pinion angle at the same time.

What size tire were you running on the stock BII mags? If they are 31"s, what brand tire?
