[@silentblacknessx8080]

I did a frame off in 94 on my dads 73 now I have a 79 and I’m rebuilding it as well love these trucks

[@WilliamCollins-sh6lm]

Unlike most channels Ya'All threw in the "Ball Park" , "Prices" !!! Most of the others figure if you have to ask you can't afford it !!! Which is usually way beyond the normal guy's Wallet !!! Thanks an keep on building !!!

[@ramonriveraroman4170]

I was really impressed with the build and more impressed that you could even find one of those in fairly good condition.

[@doctorprick2843]

$600 for a rolling chassie is a smoking deal . Somebody is doing favors on this show . I deal in 73=79 fords including this 4x4s and the orices are going past the moon these days.What I saw them drag home is $2500 with the junk 460 all day long. Only differance ;is here in Az you wouldn`t have to replace the floors. no big deal.

[@bduff007]

This is like 10-12 years old

[@MastaT_150]

Yup this is from 2009/2010…. Dang that makes me feel old.

[@jamesmathers9294]

I miss my 78 and 79 Broncos

[@SegoMan]

X2 on that, I actually installed Dana 60's in mine before Currie even thought about it

[@Rockmobile1]

I DO love the old square body early 70's Broncos but my favorite Bronco by far is the 78' - 79" body style.

[@lisamitchell1355]

What’s crazy is it drives and handles better than the new ones.

[@ajconvert]

In the transition from the Jeep to the Hummer in the Army, there were a few Broncos in the system. I will tell you that as great as the Hummer was/is, they had to fight me to give up my Bronco. I loved that thing.

[@harrywalker968]

hummers are rubbish..just built wrong with a sht engine.. buik petrol/diesel conversion..gm should of used cummins or cat,,not buik.

[@nobodysgarage]

The whole video is good, but the best part it right at the beginning when you explain HOW to find a deal.

[@rogeramorine4391]

I always told people that the clean engine runs better and I really believe that that's because it's true

[@heavyearly2232]

I remember this one. A good one.

[@martiniv8924]

I loved the original Yella ! 😜

[@lisamitchell1355]

My husband still has and drives his 77 4x4 short bed, with only 184000 original miles.

[@MastaT_150]

Ahhhh I miss the ol’ Sunday Power Block, that was the highlight of the weekend growing up. That and magazines was where a lot of my car knowledge came from…RIP to them. 🪦 😢 Thanks for posting all the old shows, especially these full build series compilations!

Wherever this Bronco is now, I hope it got a proper paint job. I can't even look at this.

They have.

[@goldysgarage189]

damn, a few hours wire wheeling the frame and some black rust paint woulda been a nice touch.

[@joeschlotthauer840]

Dazzle Camouflage was used in WWII also.

[@doctorprick2843]

sucked then, sucks today

[@brinkee7674]

Should of painted black and then apply Free Wheeling Stripes. Best looking paint job period. Spend the money and apply a Black Imron with 3 clear coats

[@johnnycheole]

Fun video. "Budget" is relative. Doubled checked a few parts. In 2004 dollars perhaps only $6600 but in 2024 dollars it's probably closer to $14k+. Yikes!

[@michaelaldredge-greenwell1692]

So cool

[@morton2200]

Which of the three rotors did you end up picking for the rear axle. Contemplating a similar upgrade on my 86 Cj7 (factory Dana 44 rear axle).

[@joshslackslack8115]

Needs some rock sliders

[@TheUsmc0802]

Oh old Trucks! Where did these guys go?

[@Anythingautomotive]

Doing their own things. Kevin has a channel on here. He Posts regularly

[@lowrangeinnovascotia2930]

The only reason they didn’t lift it higher was because LMC doesn’t sell driveshafts😂😂😂😂 Go to a field, check By everything from LMC, check Brag how you are on a budget😂😂😂😂😂

[@timothyplumley8316]

Hey guys, I don’t know if you read these or not. But I will ask the question anyway. Have you ever thought of using Line-X on your off road projects instead of paint?

[@steverives3060]

They also came with 400 cubic engines from the factory

[@nicholasfullerton5449]

46:00

[@kbakeritsallaboutnobody.5761]

It's funny when I watch stuff like this and they say "rebuild" rather than replace like when Kevin was talking about the steering and suspension. Today's "mechanics" are nothing more than glorified parts changers. True mechanics can take something old and broken and rebuild and overhaul it to be useful again like the rear brake cylinders. Mechanics didn't replace them with new ones, they rebuilt them and continued using the original cylinders. 🤦🏻🤷🏻 LOL the steering and suspension on this bronco was REPLACED. Not rebuilt. Also there was nothing wrong with the original rims. They could've cleaned them up, painted them black, and installed 37's on them and had exactly the same as what they put on it but CHEAPER!

[@mikehagen2498]

You do realize most of the replacement parts offered come with a warranty. If I rebuild a wheel cylinder and it fails the repair is on me. If I replace it and it fails the replacement is on the supplier. Most technicians are liable for come backs. I will not rebuild a part of a replacement is readily available.

[@kbakeritsallaboutnobody.5761]

@@mikehagen2498 I realize all of the reasons why REPLACING parts can have an advantage over rebuilding them. Especially in a mechanic shop. This video is explained and described by Kevin to show us DIYer's "how to rebuild this bronco on a budget". Not how we need to order new parts with warranties to run a successful shop. My point is he should have said replace rather than rebuild because when it comes to the steering, suspension, and brakes they only REUSED or REPLACED but none of it was rebuilt.

[@Rustytales]

Hello In one of your videos a few years ago you talked about a rechrome company that was recommended as the best in the business. I've watched a lot of your videos trying to find this information and can't find the episode that talked about this company. Could you please recall the name of this company?

[@Buckeyebob]

advanced plating in tennessee. I believe this is the one.

[@62-62]

Great build on a great truck! The exhaust sound is terrible. Sounds like a good system would have been a better way to go.

[@noduh736]

Thanks to the federal government and the cash for clunkers program now there's maybe a few hundred left that was the absolute worst thing for cool older vehicles

[@craigbowley6783]

Pretty cool but it needs lockers.

[@innsanewayne]

Not replacing the u joints in the front driveshaft was a rookie move and one that for probably less than 20bucks should have been done!

[@innsanewayne]

Also body mount bolts looked like shit damn guys how much can they cost, holy shit! And yes I know this was a long time ago but people still watch these so don’t get it wrong!

[@Anythingautomotive]

They weren’t gonna keep it long enough to warrant doing any of that. They used it for parts of the show, beat on it, then sold it.

[@Bumblebee4788]

I would of kept the yellow, easy to match...

[@brandond6724]

Wonder what happened to this beast?

[@Anythingautomotive]

Sold just like all the projects they have. They don’t keep any, they have to recoup that money some how.

[@rpscsx]

What happen to the bronco and can I buy it lol.

[@viscountslappy5085]

Ahhh remember the days of spending thousands of dollars on a paint job for a rig you're going to thrash on the trail? 😂

[@bmstylee]

Could be worse. Nowadays people consider rusted out to be cool.

[@Hirthirthirt]

why a visco-fan????

[@thomasmennis]

I gotta laugh at the idea of the 400 hp from a stock 460 with a towing cam, dual plane intake and stock heads. And why the hell would they reuse those body bolts.

[@doctorprick2843]

yea, they are smoking crack thinkn 400 ponies, 350 /375 MAYBE . The drag is getting the exhaust to flow, and the only headers you can get thats better than manifolds is L&L engineering. Last check their cheapies were over $650, but ....they are quaility. But ya gotta grind out the AIR hump in the exhaut port or your just draging your dick in the dirt. what are you talking about body bolts?

[@davidhimeback9087]

Sorry flairs doen't eliminate that rust it covers it an will be getting bigger..

[@frankwolfe3181]

You get what you pay for.

[@harrywalker968]

this is old vid,. anyhoo,,351m = 3.5 diffs.. with 47,s you need 4.88 diffs.

[@doctorprick2843]

Its a dog untill they gear swap it and at least put clutches in that smoked factory trac loc.

Nothing low Buck with a Bronco anymore

[@Helloverlord]

They forgot to drink brawdo through the show!

[@UpperDarbyDetailing]

Guys... please respect your viewer's time. We aren't watching these episodes 6 months, or even a week apart. We don't need to get caught up on the last episode. Cut that part out and save us five or ten minutes.

@@jacoba102 of course there is, but we shouldn't have to use it with proper editing. These people are professionals for Christ's sake. Why are amateur KZbinrs better editors than trained professionals?

I can not understand the logic you have in the work. One of you fits the valves and then another grinds the head… where will the filing go? On newly fitted valve stems!

[@raginroadrunner]

Whoa...460? ..way way too much motor! Foolish.

[@doctorprick2843]

hey ragin....you got to be a millenial. everyone born in the last centery KNOWS that there is NO substitute for cubic inch displacement. Don`t tell me, youd put a LS in it, right? The best way to do with it is take teh 460 and bore and stroke it to make a 550 inche stump puller. Now your talking

[@raginroadrunner]

Ford beat the Ferrari V12 with a 3.5 V6. That old axiom is outdated. Ive built 460s for 40 years

[@doctorprick2843]

@@raginroadrunner I been doin 460s for only 50 years and have 5 running 460 trucks as I type. Let me tell you about V-6 turbo engine that use a computor to make them run , after a EMP hits us. Question is not If it will hit but when. Scrap metal is worthless after it hits, and thats what ECM controled fuel injected engines are then. Never had a Ferrari,never wanted one.Wont trad 200 of them for one of my trucks. You ought to get one, just in case.

[@frankwolfe3181]

Still a piece of junk

[@johngraves9201]

I don’t know why, but every older truck or car show was so dang cheesy it almost hurts to watch. Never any real work shown just a dude walking around with a terrible smile and a stale sense of humor.

[@doctorprick2843]

they ought to hire me to host the show. But being born in the 50`s and raised by a drunk ole man from the depression and getting the crap beat out of me daily for no reason, working for ford in the 70s and having my own shop for 43 years afterwards untill a truck fell on me in 2015( always use jackstands), I dont think corperate would go for my honesty nor my vocabulary. All the milleniums and beyound would run away crying for their mommy and all you older guys would love the show, and the builds. But the reality is the pilot would not even get half way though filming and corperate would be there with a restraing order for me . Welcome to America today. "You cant handle the truth!"

[@dano9421]

So you cut the wheel wells and you didn't do anything to make the cuts secure and safe from rust and debris thrown into the same wheel wells and rust it out faster than before you hacked the whole mess out and that was really bad for your big rebuild that is mostly replace everything, anybody can do that

[@doctorprick2843]

Did they hirre Ray Charles to do their welding for them? They failed to mention where the timing cover , valve covers, exhaust mainifolds and all the bolts the 460 did not have when they drug it home. they were not in the expenditure list they gave. must have fell from the sky.

[@Anythingautomotive]

They only have certain time frames for certain things. It’s blatantly obvious it’s missing all that. They do a lot off camera.

[@doctorprick2843]

so I guess a machine shop did the 460 rebuilt for freee and gave ya all the engine internals for free too. Gee, I wonder what kind of 'favors " you had to pass out to pay for that. It kinda leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I also didnt see any tax paid on all that stuff. So how do ya get away with that. Still got that bad taste but the tax man is sure smiling.

[@Anythingautomotive]

They aren’t gonna tell you specific prices lol that’s the shows job. Don’t watch if it “leaves a bad taste in your mouth”
