Bronco 2 Is Home - Pictures Added
Just got the bronco 2 home last night, was too dark to do anything. My only issue is the alternator isn't connected properly and I don't want to screw it up. It does have the external voltage regulator on the driver's side fender with 4 wires coming off of it. What wires go where? Yes I realize there's a tech section LOL, but the wiring schematics make my head spin. Sorry guys for dumb questions I just don't want to mess it up.
I'll get some crude pictures taken here this afternoon and get posted up. Lots of work to do to it but it runs and drives great other than the battery dying after a while.
Axle Code shows 44 on the door which means 3.73 gears, which is a good thing as it came with the 235/75-R15 tires which I'm going to end up replacing as soon as I can with the correct size tires as this is going to be a daily driver not a rock crawler LOL, will eventually get another set of larger tires for hunting season but right now I'm just looking to get it on the road as soon as I can. Just have to get the alternator hooked up as it wasn't working properly, so any help on the wiring hook up would be nice as well without the wiring schematics I keep finding which I admit are far more difficult for me to try and follow at this point. It has the external Voltage Regulator so it needs the wiring hook up for that type of setup.
Thanks guys, and I'm happy to have it home finally.
