So yesterday I got the 3rd member in along with the shafts. Didn't get the pinion angle set because I wasn't feeling well.

Well after after being sick in the house the lady couple of days I couldn't tale it anymore. Today I decided to remove all of the ABS wiring. A huge thanks to Monkei for the great write up on the process. Took me about 3 hours but it's all out and taped back up. Hopefully by this weekend I'll be feeling better so I can get the pinion set.

Question for you guys with fiberglass fenders. How are you mounting the fuse box? Anybody have any pictures of what you've done that you could share? Thanks in advance.

Thanks, I have looked over your thread many times. I might have to see if I can for mine like that. Problem is im running the f350 booster and master cylinder so space is a bit limited there.

Thanks For the pics Tanner.

If that doesn't work JUst search in the general tech forum for removing ABS. There a couple threads that have been merged. just look for Monkei, hes who did most of the write up.

Had a couple hours to kill this morning so I went out to see about possible locations for the fuse box. I think I'm going to try and mount mine like Tanners as soon as I build my support from the firewall to the core support. So in the mean time I set my pinion angle and got ride of that huge chunk of aluminum supporting the steering column and fab up a mount coming off the dash bar. I still need to add a couple braces but I ran out of time for the day.

Well it took 2 months but the bronco is finally at my buddies shop getting the cage finished up. Last week I started on the rear disc brakes and this happened. Yes I was wearing safety glasses, ImageImage

Ended up having emergency surgery to close the wound. Not the way I wanted to spend my 40th birthday.

Oh man that sucks!! I've caught myself looking under or over my safety glasses before. It's a really bad habit. Glad you still have your eye though.

I had the same happen to me twice.once was a stick when I was a kid and another time it was a chunk of aluminum oxide off a grinding wheel. I was also wearing saftey glasses. I try to use wire cups vs wheels whenever possible, and try to position yourself beside the line of fire not in it's path. I know it's a lot easier said than done. Agian sorry to hear.
