Polyurethane Body Mount Problems
I just changed out all of the body mounts on my 95 Bronco with a set from Prothane.... I reused the factory washer / sleeves, after grinding off the flared portion, and used new grade 8 bolts. After torquing the bolts to factory specs, which I believe is 65 lbs on the cab mounts, and 45 or so on the...

Re: The Owyhee Mustang - Idaho Adventure Bronco
As I've mentioned, this winter I've been concentrating on collecting the rest of my desired suspension components. As if it was predestined, my tax return was the exact same amount of money as a set of King 3-tubes, so finally I have a set of front and rear shocks! https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.n...

mountain home, ID is a gateway to some cool places based on the map. that camping picture is amazing. It is, I am lucky to be so close to so many amazing places. Admittedly, when I moved to Idaho I was really hoping to find a good job in Boise as I do enjoy a bit of a social life and the convenienc...

Re: The Owyhee Mustang - Idaho Adventure Bronco
I was surprised that the speedometer lens is still able to be ordered from Ford... I am a Ford parts advisor for work, so I get lots of time to look for odds and ends when it's slow. Probably will experiment with some cheap Amazon LED bulbs on this too. They only look this nice for a day or so! :lo...

Re: The Owyhee Mustang - Idaho Adventure Bronco
Yesterday morning after putting the dash back together, I went out for what was intended to be a short drive. Next thing I knew, I was a few hours into the desert exploring some areas I've never been to. Had I have planned better, I'd have made a weekend out of it and done some camping... This area ...

Re: The Owyhee Mustang - Idaho Adventure Bronco
New dash bezels are also still available from Ford, but only in one configuration. It's got the opening for the rear window switch (which is the fuel tank selector on trucks), manual transfer case, and no rear defrost opening. I found the aftermarket ones only come this way too. I guess I can either...

That looks like like a slice of heaven. Idaho is on my list. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk It sure is! I'm in a pretty good location here to have quick access to LOTS of mountains and wilderness. The landscape, climate and wildlife throughout Idaho is pretty insanely varied. Funny that you s...
