So last night I phoned the prospective purchaser of my engine and transmission and related starters and such, he confirmed arriving Wednesday for p/u of said parts.
This project of getting a diesel Bronco has been a 6 year undertaking of collecting info and bending Mel's ear...so to speak..more like his fingers for the keyboard...Thanks again Mel!!! Along with many members here have I also bent fingers/ears. Gary, Russ, Darren to name just a few all of you thanks!
So with out further ado...Kaleb...KanadianCC4x4 came over today and in about an hour we tore off the clip..
and with that completed I'll be continuing shortly.
I'll get the drive shafts pulled, the assorted lower wiring and lines disconnected. Also I'll be dropping the transfer case and the transmission cross member and exhaust and starter and undoing the fuel lines and motor mounts in prep for the tractor coming by on Wed to pull engine.
Unfortunately, I had some problems with my Shop door... and it's not rolling up...cable came undone and spring seems screwy for one side, thus I am doing this OUT SIDE AGAIN
Anyway, pull the engine, pop the mounts of the cross member and get the diesel mounts fabbed to the Bronco x member no fill hole for now...got some other ideas...shorten 1 ton frame...or continue with my bare frame buildup!
nuff for now...6 years...wow...the reason I joined this site was MEL's Bronco...did that google search led me here and voila....been a fun ride!
