[@Lumencraft-]

I need a bobblehead Phil.

[@PaperBeatsRock]

HAHAHA yes. That would be amazing.

[@calebedwards4056]

I just got my 1978 bronco to start and I’m so excited

[@FrequentVirtue]

My favorite beer!

[@Maximus43968]

That thing is going to be so sweet

[@PaperBeatsRock]

hell yes, brother. It's going to be sick.

[@beans4gas]

Keep up the good work.

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Will do and thank you.

[@TwistedEngines]

Good to see you getting it done . Man it's going to be a beast ! #moneyhelps!

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Hell yes brother. Love the #moneyhelps

[@mudmakerbydesign5424]

Hey Adam, I have a 9" disk brake convert you can make at your shop. Only thing needed new is caliper brackets. weld to housing. The whole thing in new parts $30.00. Rotors and calipers are doable with lay around parts. I have done it on a jeep xJ running 36's. Holla at me later. Looking good man.

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Thanks, Troy. I'll throw you a text later about this. Thanks for the heads up brother.

[@plgout9493]

Paint your fuel tank before installing, i suggest the Frame/chassis as well

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Most definitely will be. The frame and everything else will have to wait for later when we do the full break down.

[@MrKelso11]

Loving these vids! we are paralleling in builds looking good dude!

[@littlerey2000]

Broooooo love this I just wish I can see more

[@Scrapy-ih7ob]

Well after few months of research finally watched this video all the way through , seen the teardown front hubs, On my bronco it was already torn apart had no ideal what went where, That thin spring @time stamp 6:03 is what I am missing, my parts, once I located them inside the bronco where ruined sitting in a bucket, one was rotted away. At least now I know the used part I just bought are just spares for the locking mechanism. Back to still looking for One "Spring" nice rebuild.

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Thank you so much bed. They take a bit to get up and going but so worth it.

[@brianmaynard7320]

Great vid as usual Adam!! Glad to see you focused back on the Bronco !! Going to be an awesome wheeler!!

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Yeah super happy to be back spinning wrenches on it. Always puts a smile on my face. Thank you.

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

Love this build & your enthusiasm. Hope the 2020 lock-down dosen't fuc...mess with your plans. Stay safe man!

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Thank you so much bud. Doing what I can around all this and push out content. You stay safe as well man.

[@Ohiocountryboy-se2cn]

I had super swamper sx on a 79 ford f150 4x4. They took me anywhere i wanted to go

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Yeah, they are a very solid tire and hook up great. Can't wait to pick them up.

[@Ohiocountryboy-se2cn]

Mine were bald but still did great. To bad i sold the truck. Was a short bed step side

[@PaperBeatsRock]

@@Ohiocountryboy-se2cn dude yes. love them short beds and they are becoming rare.

[@Ohiocountryboy-se2cn]

Thats for sure. Just wish i kept it and fixed it up. Had a 460 in it

[@460fourwheelin2]

This was a good video thank you for being one of the good KZbinrs

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Thank you so much brother, I really glad you enjoyed it.

[@markifi]

Matt Smith sent me

[@xsadapz4308]

Good thing you were doing the breaks that shock would have done some damage

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Dude for real. I was super surprised when I saw that. This is the exact reason why I'm going through it and didn't just do a few basic things and run.

[@xsadapz4308]

Yeah good thing you did

[@xsadapz4308]

I got to get new valve stems for all four tires

[@Iamthathillbilly]

I don’t know what engineer decided it was a good idea to make it so you have to pound the studs out to get the rotor off but I’d like to kick them in the butt! Same setup on my 94 f150, makes a break job take a lot longer

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Dude I know right.... This is King Tiger IQ.

[@nathanmccree3089]

Awesome man 👍

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Thank you so much

[@HaventHeard307]

Wow, no juckyard high pinon 8 bolt, wow

[@PaperBeatsRock]

We will be doing 1-ton running gear later when we do a full tear down on the bronco. This set up is just temporary to play a bit this summer.

[@Scrapy-ih7ob]

So your replaced your OEM hubs with new ones, What you do with the Old Parts from the???? I am Missing 1 Spring on my project, Parts where in a box,. in the back seat when I got it a year half ago, just now found out I am missing one Part that spring that goes in first any chance you have those parts laying around I would be willing to purchase them if you still had them?

[@PaperBeatsRock]

I will have to look in the scrap metal container but im 99% sure they are gone. sorry man. I may have one setting around. will keep an eye out.

[@Scrapy-ih7ob]

@@PaperBeatsRock Well thanks for the reply I did find it "missing spring" in a bucket of water must thrown it in there when I was cleaning out cab.. No good now, all rusted apart; so thanks for looking , in the mean time il keep searching as well for one. I will continue to get the interior cleaned up, found Mouse house in the heater box, snake skin, Old residents.. put back together tomorrow minus the Turds...

[@Bearking-ij6qe]

Hey I’ve got a set of 15/12.5 rims 5-5.5 lug pattern. If you need rims.

[@i_am2685]

Clean, paint, THEN assemble. And, no, it doesn't matter if people can see it or not.

[@i_am2685]

PS... A GREAT truck to restore. The best looking Bronco ever made.

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Thank you so much bed. Yeah like with most projects we jump in to them with eye larger then budget or skill level. haha its ok. I'm doing everything I can do keep her moving in the proper direction.

[@HaventHeard307]

Or at least a 8 bolt rotor swap front and 60 rear?

[@mudmowercentral1999]

That was awesome to see you are getting parts for it my dad kinda did that with his 2010 ford raptor he got brakes all the way around new bfg Goodrich tires for it too and he needed a new wheel bearing and control arms I forgot if it was lower or upper honestly I'm glad one of these old fords not many are around especially broncos my dads old 91 was junked because of rust ( his pontiac g5 is a whole different story) im curious If what engine is under the hood of that truck if you mentioned it I guess I didn't listen

[@mib_patdawg]

My neighbor gave me his 1999 s10 blazer and the motor ran hot and what should I do to it

[@nathanmccree3089]

Change head gasket or just throw it away an buy Ford

[@mib_patdawg]

And the motor has not been started in years and what should I do to it

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Need to check if it lifted a head. Is there oil in the coolant. easy to check. The coolant will have a rainbow in it from the oil. or is there coolant in the water. Again an easy check. The oil will have a milky gray look to it and not be black. If either of these have happened you will need to pull the heads and replace the head gasket and flush the motor with new oil if this happen recently.

[@Ohiocountryboy-se2cn]

Drop a v8 in it

[@mib_patdawg]

The motor is a Votech v6 4.3

[@rjsparling1696]

Bro, I love that the case of beer was in the parts pile during the first shot of parts, then missing during the unboxing of the fuel tank!! You know what went down before parts got opened lol! Been awhile since you did a bronco update, is west coast Corona, Chop, etc keepin' ya down? Or are you busy with other projects? I dunno cause I'm not on your fb group. Sending you and yours the best.

[@PaperBeatsRock]

RJ sorry been so long getting back to you. Things got crazy over here. our house that we where buying deal fell apart but we found a new place and are super happy. I have a new video coming out. make sure to check it out and get up to date and whats happening. Thanks so much for watching bud.

[@xsadapz4308]

Was that the new tire it looks nice

[@PaperBeatsRock]

you will be amazed to hear that its a 20 year old tire lol. He has 3 more just like it and in as good as condition.

[@xsadapz4308]

I couldn’t tell that’s nice

[@xsadapz4308]

I don’t know how old my tires are but I guess around 15-20 maybe

[@PaperBeatsRock]

@@xsadapz4308 yeah man. As long as they are kept up nice and when your not wheeling for long times take them off your truck so they don't have the load on them. I think I should do a video about this. Thanks bro.

[@xsadapz4308]

Paper Beats Rock ok thanks
