I saw the SwitchPro and had assumed it was more for lights and that sort of thing. It was the lone toggle and the push-button in the panel that triggered my post.
Right on those are strictly for starting it that’s it

So toggle to "arm" the push-button?

Worked on the bronco some this weekend. Fighting out the location for my second steering swinger made mounts for the radiator picking away at it a little here and there

Got some time to work on this again now that my vacation is over and ribs have healed. I made my brackets for my double swing steering and I’m going to start on the wiring. I also rolled it out side to wash it

I have been working on getting my barn emptied out and cleaned up for the winter. And it’s just about there so I decided to bring this home to my shop. It will make it easier to work on at home. Plan is to knock out the wiring at home. I will also do some more cage and sheet metal work on it here.

A couple updates.. I been collecting more parts and have decided the 460 is going. I have acquired a coyote so I’m on the hunt for a few more things to go that route. I need a trans and t case as well as a wire harness. I have also picked up some new 35” bfg a/t’s cheap. Full set of 5. So the current tires and wheels are up for sale.

Some progress is better than no progress right? Lol I started routing my brake lines. That’s all. I been busy my grandpa just passed and I have been dealing with that and I started working on the original black one for my wife to drive in the summer. Along with my tow rig camper and Harley. This has taken the back burner for a while.
I need to get the coyote power plant stuffed in it with the trans then I will start working on it a lot again probably around August

Hopefully I will be getting back to work on this soon. Looks like I will be pulling the q80’s and linking it. I want to do it once and be done. I’m taking my time and enjoying the process. Right now I will start getting a parts list and watching market place ect for deals. In the meantime I hope to start fitting the coyote and 6r80 in the frame rails.

Ordered some coyote motor mounts and some link mounts for the rear. And a few other parts. Hopefully have a nice pile of parts soon. Hopefully they will all be here so when I get the pins out of my hand. I can work on it.

Nice! With it being dual overhead cam is it a tight squeeze? Are you going to use the stock transfer case?

I’m not sure yet. I do plan on pushing the engine back in the chassis and cutting the firewall as it will get stretched
