Tech Pages
These pages describe some of the repairs and modifications I've made to The Bronc over the last several years. I hope you find them useful. I'm always happy to hear what others have done, and would like to add other tips and tricks I find useful to these pages. Drop a line if you have something to add! I can't guarantee any particular item will be added, but I'll sure look them over.
DISCLAIMER: Remember that these pages show how -I- did the work, not necessarily the way -you- should. I have an extensive mechanical background including racing and custom vehicles, and I am an engineer by training. If you are the least bit intimidated by any job, GET HELP! I highly recommend getting in over your head, it's how you learn, but be smart about it. Make sure someone who understands what you are doing is close by to help out. Follow all safety guidelines, your life will depend on it. And most importantly, especially when modifying suspension systems, remember that you are endangering the lives of others every time you hit the road with a modified vehicle. If you do something wrong and it breaks, you may never overcome the emotional and financial penalties of your actions.
IF A MODIFICATION YOU MADE FAILS, YOU COULD KILL OR SEVERELY INJURE YOURSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE. EXTREME VEHICLE OR PROPERTY DAMAGE IS POSSIBLE. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE COMPETENT HELP AVAILABLE BEFORE AND DURING ANY WORK!! FOLLOW ALL SAFETY RULES!!
I must pass along many thanks to the dozens of people who have helped out over the years to make The Bronc what it is today. It would have been difficult to pull off without you.
