POWER STEERING
Are you tired of having armstrong steering?
Maybe you're afraid to drive the Bronco because the stock manual steering is so worn out you can hardly keep the thing on the road. You might have even tried a rebuilt manual box but you found it has as much play as the old one you turned in for a core. Could be it's time to make that Bronco drive the way you always wanted it to by converting to power steering. We know our customers use their rigs in many different ways, therefore, we offer a number of different P/S systems so that you can pick the system best suited for your Bronco. No matter what the terrain, we have a system for you.

DEATH WOBBLE
|
Item #: death_wobble
Dangerous and scary, the "Wobble" is definitely something that needs to be remedied.
Question:
I'm doing a restore on a 1973 Bronco that I bought 1 1/2 months ago. When I bought the Bronco, it had the radius arms disconnected from the area they should be, but they were still attached to the front axle. The vibration that I speak of is comparable to the space shuttle during take-off. When the vibration does occur and I look out the window at the front axle, it looks like after-burners in full idle ready for launch. After installing the 3 1/2" lift ( bushings, shocks, coil springs, and leaf springs), the vibration stopped, but now at times the vibration is slight and once in a while it comes back to shake me back into orbit but not as bad as at first. Also any bumps in the road can spark the rocket motors. The lift kit is on correctly and tight to specifications. I will be buying new rims and tires this week, which I hope will help. I'm puzzled by this freak problem. Do you have any suggestions? Your help is greatly needed.

Item #: Steering
From 1966-72, Broncos came with manual steering. From 73-77, power steering was optional. The power steering boxes from 73-75 turned approximately 6 turns lock-to-lock and from 76-77 4 turns lock-to-lock. Some people prefer the 76-77 box because of the quicker turning ratio. Others prefer the earlier box for rock crawling because they're easier to turn.
