Re: how do i remove break hose from caliper?

If you have to go ahead and break it out. I've had them rusted to the point of breaking when I tried to knock them off.

Re: how do i remove break hose from caliper?

Look like this one? If so, mine came out with a few taps from a hammer.

Re: how do i remove break hose from caliper?

The side away from the frame will have to be pried up enough to clear the boss on the hose before it will slide off. You may have to rotate it some if you can.

Can you take a picture of the clip?

Re: Transmission interchange?

Started to swap the pedal assembly today. Not as easy as I'd hoped. I thought I may be able to swap the pedals without pulling the cast aluminum bracket above the steering column. No such luck.

Re: TRANNY?

I've talked to a bunch of transmission guys and all said the A4LD is junk. Go with a C5 or 5speed.

Re: TRANNY?

Same thing mine did. I chunked the auto and am putting in a manual. So far I have under 400 in the swap.

Re: 1985 B2 project

As of 11/28/09, we got the A4LD on the ground and all associated hardware from the automatic removed. The Transfer case from the A4LD mounted right up to the FM145 like it was meant to go there. Replaced the slave cylinder as well. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g260/cajun66/Bronco%202/DSCF3171.j...

Re: Age old question about tire size

Your tachometer is liable to be a lot more accurate than the speedometer. Unless you're using a GPS.

Re: 85 Gas Tank Rant

Got my 1986 sending unit in today. It will work in my 85 tank. All I need to do is plug the return tube, clip the unused wires, and extend the pickup tube.

Re: Age old question about tire size

In Louisiana? Well I have it on good authority they have winter there too, just a different type than we have in the northern climes. The 215's will work great. Does your truck have a tach in it?
