I would not drive it on the road the way it is the brakes are weak (need bled out) and the front end needs an alignment, tires have good tread but they are very dry rotted, in it's current state I would not drive it on the road till the brakes got bled out, was last on the road the winter of 2012 I put about 2k miles on it when ever it snowed enough for 4wd did all the mentioned suspension work last summer hasnt been on the road since. the mileage is actual this Bronco has been in my family since the 80's I got it about 3 years ago after it had sat in a barn for quite a while, my brother put a new tail gate on it several years ago tail gate is in good shape, and a new radiator, has the factory style exhaust "y pipe & catalytic converter still on it, could use some shocks when I did the suspension and springs the shocks were fine Rancho 5000, pry more new parts than I listed everything I mentioned I replaced was new in box from "Jeffs bronco graveyard. com" everything works on the truck even the power tailgate window, the top has the slider vent windows in it, I purchased the complete suspension & body Energy Suspension Red urethane "kit" I do have the complete body bushing kit still in the box never put on the truck. Jeff's sold me the right suspension kit "I believe 4 degree pitch" matching the 3" lift Spring kit I purchased, rear springs are complete new main leaf all new leaves new bushings no redneck blocks or add a leaf to achieve the lift. For off road you just need to turn the key and go.. I would suggest new quarter panels tires and an alignment before it be road worthy again NOTE::: has the set of 4 Bush Wacker wheel flares the photos show the rear drivers side missing I have it, I took it off so I didnt lose it somewhere on the road as you can see that quarter panel is pretty bad, also the photos show no rear sway bar I have that too just not on the truck atm.. - Mileage discrepancy odometer reads 64,000 miles it is original miles, the title however at one point when I filed it got filed as exceeds limits and shows 162k rather than 62k I know the history my brother was the 2nd owner since the 80's it never turned over but the title shows it has so im listing as undetermined miles, I dumped a ton of money in last summer with high hope of finishing it and painting it now I am just trying to avoid putting it back in the barn because I dont know if/when I'll have time to do any more work to it. ******************************************************************************* AS IS NEEDS WORK - PROJECT - PARTS CAR - YOU CAN NOT DRIVE IT HOME - NEEDS TOWED AWAY - PICK UP ONLY WILL NOT CRATE PACK OR SHIP THIS ITEM<>BUYER MUST TOW IT OR TRAILER IT AWAY Clean Ohio title |

2015 Ford F-150 enters production
Wed, 12 Nov 2014Ford has given the F-150 a dramatic makeover for 2015, switching to an aluminum body that helps reduce weight by about 700 pounds. Because the truck is dramatically different, Ford also had to change the way it makes the F-150, so we went inside its sprawling factory in Dearborn, MI, this week to see the Blue Oval's new manufacturing techniques in action.
The company has added 850 jobs at the site and upgraded its stamping and tool and die facilities. The body shop is also modernized, and it has been fitted with 500 new robots that join the structures together. The first 2015 F-150 rolled off the line on Tuesday, and the trucks will begin arriving in dealerships in December. Get a closer look at the F-150's unique assembly process in our video.
Ford Transit Skyliner Concept is a Gulfstream for the road
Sat, 12 Apr 2014If you are afraid to fly or just want to arrive at your ultimate destination in absolute comfort, then the Ford Transit Skyliner concept might be the perfect vehicle for you. Built by Galpin Auto Sports and based on a 2015 Transit, the van is basically a private jet on wheels. It even has a touch of Transformers about it with the ability to switch between four modes by pressing a button in a smartphone app.
Based on the long wheelbase, high-roof model with 487 cubic feet of cargo space and 6 feet, 9.5 inches of interior height, the Skyliner has movable captains chairs that shift around among four modes. In theater mode, the seats turn and recline to face a 52-inch retractable movie screen with 7.2 surround sound. For business, a motorized table unfolds, and the chairs gather around it. There is a mode for tailgating where the door opens four-feet wide, and, when traveling, passengers can recline back with footrests that extend for maximum comfort.
To make the ride even plusher, there is a satellite and media server to meet your entertainment needs, and there is even a built-in bar in the back. If this Ford had a bathroom, you could live in it. Of course, you would need to hire a driver to enjoy all the amenities in the back.
Check out Ford's fully automated self-parking car [w/video]
Wed, 09 Oct 2013As automakers continue to find uses for autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicle technology, Ford of Europe has announced that it is developing a self-parking system for future use. More advanced than the Active Park Assist already offered in many Ford products, the new Fully Assisted Parking Aid can take full control of the vehicle and can navigate angled and perpendicular parking spots.
While today's Active Park Assist can only parallel park with the driver controlling the gas, brake and gear selection, Fully Assisted Parking Aid can operate steering, gas, brake and gear selection all while making sure the car is properly parked in the intended space. As with APA, the driver pushes a button to make the car look for a proper spot (at speeds of up to 18 miles per hour), and when an adequate space is located, the operator pushes another button (either inside the car or outside via remote control) for the car to park itself - the button must be pressed throughout the whole parking maneuver. Even though Ford says that the car can effect gear selections on its own, the system must still start from Neutral, and the automaker isn't saying whether the car can put itself into Park when done or put itself in Drive when the operator is ready to go.
Ford is also taking the opportunity to announce its new Obstacle Avoidance technology. This automated system is able to detect objects - including pedestrians - in the road, warn drivers of said objects and, if needed, stop and steer automatically to avoid hitting the obstacle. Both systems are still in the prototype phase, so there is no word as to when we could see either on a production vehicle.
