Re: bronco eng, trans, case and axles in a B2? will it work?

A solid axle out of a '78 or '79 F150 or bronco would be a good swap. most were dana 44, some were dana 60. the 44's were high pinion, I don't know if the 60's were or not. But the high pinion is the way to go if you are going full width. good luck. :canada: :redneck:

Re: 89 b2 2.9efi 4x4 fluid leaks

Get a couple of cans of brake cleaner, do your brakes first since these are most important, spray in the aera that you think is leaking, get it clean! Hit your brakes lightly and take a look around, if it's wet, bingo! If not move to the next susipitious aera and repeat. Whatever the problem is FIX ...

Re: New white type smoke

Now I have lots of white smoke whenever I gun the engine and let it idle. White smoke? Usually a sign of a head gasket gone bad, do a compression test on all cylinders. If a gasket goes between a water jacket and cyl it will not get in your oil, but will form steam from the tailpipe. Good luck. :re...

Re: 1990 BII Hard to rev up and cuts out while driving

Go back to basics,air filter? I've seen some really dirty ones before. A temp sensor may cause a rich condition. Is there any smoke coming out of the tailpipe, black would indicate a rich condition, blue is burning oil and white (steam) is usually a sign of a head gasket problem. Have you had the in...
