Understand the Part Before You Turn a Wrench
Watching the video on this page is the fastest way to get familiar with how a part looks, functions, and installs on a classic 1966–1977 Ford Bronco. We highlight the details that matter—mounting points, hardware, tools required, and any small adjustments that make the install smoother. You'll see how the product fits with original components and common upgrades, so you can confirm compatibility before ordering and plan your project with confidence.
Our goal is to shorten your learning curve. A few minutes of video can save an hour in the garage by clarifying steps, order of operations, and "gotchas" that don't always show up in written instructions. Whether you're replacing worn factory parts, restoring period-correct details, or adding modern performance, this walkthrough gives you real-world context you can trust.
Use the video as a checklist: verify what's included, note any recommended accessories, and preview the final result. When you're ready, you'll have a clear picture of what to expect from start to finish—so the install is cleaner, the outcome is better, and your Bronco is back on the road without surprises.
WILD HORSES HISTORY
Late in the 80s, with the likes of Bon Jovi, Guns N'Roses, and Van Halen blaring over the local radio station, a 25 year old Jim Creel was wrenching on a recently purchased 1966 Ford Bronco. Tucked away in the back alley behind his one room studio - wrenches, screwdrivers, and buckets of grease strewn about - Jim had little knowledge of the adventure he was getting ready to embark on.
While Jim thought the Bronco would just be another 4WD vehicle that he could enjoy with his buddies, what has evolved from that back alley in Stockton, CA has proven to be one of the most familiar and respected companies in the Bronco community. But how did we get here?
The Evolution of Our Bronco Stable
From Alleyways to Warehouses
While the back alley served as headquarters for Jim to part out classic Broncos, as Broncos began to stack up, eventually Jim had to rent a one car garage a few feet away from his studio. Word spread, as it was known to back in the day, and in no time, Jim was fighting for space and time to keep projects moving forward. In order to alleviate this issue, about 20 miles outside of Stockton, in a small town called Clements, Jim found his first real shop. With space for eight Broncos, things were really looking up for this young roofer! Jim decided it was time to quit his roofing job, and in 1989 he dove head first into the Bronco business.
The 90s would become the building blocks for what WILD HORSES 4x4 is today. As inventory piled up, Jim decided to move everything to a 3,000 square foot warehouse in Stockton. As fate would have it, Jim married local mud bogging phenom, Sheyla, who owned a 1973 Ford Bronco. With Sheyla taking over the office work, this dynamic duo worked hard to keep the shelves stocked and orders fulfilled. In 1995, Jim took it upon himself to produce the first ever WILD HORSES catalog. Soon after, Rames Creel, Jim's younger brother, created the first WH website. As the Bronco world slowly began to spin faster, more staff had to be hired. Just as the century was wrapping up, WH moved to its first 28,000 square foot warehouse facility located in downtown Stockton.
The 2000s arrived with seamless transition. With over 10 years of business experience, WILD HORSES 4x4 was truly beginning to take the shape of the amazing company that it is today. During this period, Sheyla instituted the famed "customer service" policies that our customers openly admire.
"We aren't just here to sell parts," she would say. "Our job is to go above and beyond for our customers in whatever way we can."
Putting that idea at the center of our company has improved our trajectory in the best way possible. With this mission driving our efforts, our phones began to buzz non-stop, and within a decade we had outgrown our facility. In 2014, we moved the entire company 10 miles north to an abandoned Ford dealership in Lodi, CA.
Sitting on 3.5 acres, with approximately 41,000 square feet of space, this new location has proven to be yet another launching pad for the WILD HORSES 4x4 dream. From the back alleys of Stockton, California, WILD HORSES 4x4 has been blessed with the opportunity to serve some of the most loyal customers in the world.
