FORD BRONCO BI-LED PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS
The Ford Bronco gained some new additions for the 2022 model year, including Base LED headlights for the Outer Banks, Badlands and Wildtrak trims. The Base LED option removes the LED Headlamps with Signature Lighting that are featured on these three trims and instead adds the Base LED setup, which does not…
’83 Bronco Tailgate Window Wires
After using a demo saw to finally remove the hitch-mount salt spreader, I was finally able to start investigating my Bronco’s issue with a stuck tailgate window. It’s looking like the sheathing for the driver side tailgate support cable dried out and split, exposing sharp edges. These sharp edges look to have sliced up the window wiring protective cover and the wire insulation, and the wires are badly rusted where the insulation was damaged. Would anyone know what gauge these wires are? I’d…
Headlight Bezel and Retainer Screws
I installed new headlights in my ’83 and found the screws for the bezels and retainers to be in fairly bad shape (had to throw out a few that got their heads stripped too easily). So, I was thinking that I ought to replace them. I was thinking to get either stainless steel of black oxide coated, but I’m not sure exactly what size screws these are. Can anyone tell me what size screws these all are and if they’re available in stainless or black oxide?

Starter Solenoid Wire
So, looking over my ’83, trying reconnect the starting circuit, I noticed that I cannot find the wire that’s supposed to activate the solenoid. In checking some diagrams, I understand that it should be a red/blue wire, but I can’t find it. And I don’t see any wires laying nearby that appear appropriate. So, before I make an attempt at running a new wire from ignition switch, can anyone guide me to where I should look for it, to trace its path? I figure I’ll likely need to wash some wires to…

New Addition to my Fleet
Just picked up this 1983 Bronco 4×4. Came with a 8′ plow and salt spreader, too. Has a 351W, and looking under the hood can see that it’s had some stuff done. Looks to have a standard carb in it, maybe a 2150 (all the emissions wiring just sitting there unplugged), and has Edelbrock valve covers. Sounds pretty damned mean, too.
It has a couple issues that need to be resolved before driving it around more. Waiting for a somewhat warmer day before investigating because it’s below freezing…

Load Leveling Front Air Springs
So, while tinkering with my ’83, I found a Schrader valve on the driver fender under the hood. Traced the lines from it and found red air springs installed inside of the front coil springs. I assume this is front load leveling installed meant to help when the plow is attached, since that thing is super heavy. Anyone know a way to identify what springs they are? Or perhaps know of a writeup somewhere that details what would be needed to modify it to use a compressor mounted in the Bronco…
