Yeah, WTH. At least have the class to put it in the glove box. :flipoff2:

Bronco is permanently Topless and Tailgateless. I would leave the tailgate but it was too straight too mess up. I'm putting a tool box back there anyways.

Time for a 12" Exhaust tip so I can match Travis

After 2 years of being my most used skid plate, it's finally showing signs of wear.
The good news is, I now have a tailgate! Whoop!
Ah, the joys of owning a fullsize.
Ahh, the natural stages of a 78/79 Bronco.

These things always end up exactly where they belong.
I have never seen someone so happy about body damage....
i have, my brother....
I finally changed the oil in the bronco today, not a big deal but I took a picture of the nasty oil.
It only has about 2k on it but I guess with the engine tuning and it running real rich and hot it got nasty.
It was as thin as water too
Oh well I took a picture and I might as well post it up.

Looks like your putting a motorcraft filter on there and running mobil 1, are you sure that is compatable? Good tech write up, thanks for the pictures.

This is the cage I'm going to order. 10 point for $300, not bad
How does that work? Does it come pre-bent and you weld/jb weld it together? Or can it all fit in from behind with the top removed?
It says the material is "1-5/8 x .134" wall EWS ", EWS is electric welded seam right? Isn't that like the pipe you run in a house, like a step down from HREW and 2 steps down from DOM, and 5 steps down from chrome moly?
Tommy stop wasting your money on little bull **** stuff that doesn't matter and buy this: http://houston.craigslist.org/cto/2329284969.html
It appears that EWS is HREW, for some reason that site is mega geah and calls it that.
http://www.rme4x4.com/showthread.php?t=2886
says ews is used for hand rails and exhaust.
Karl, what makes you say it's hrew?
ews= electric welded steel
hrew= hot rolled electric welded
same thing
The website you posted says there are these in order of strength:
DOM
CREW
HREW
Then it lists details about DOM, then SEAMLESS (Not HREW), The 3rd thing it talks about is EWS, I think EWS is like saying coke and HREW vs. CREW is like Coke Zero and Diet Coke. So EWS is electrically welded as opposed to seamless. Then hot rolled EW, cold rolled EW, and DOM are subsets of that group.
Further under this website:
http://www.steelnorthshore.co.nz/ind...Path=1013_1042
It lists EWS, then under that tab is ERW.
I also found a place on the miller welds forum where some guys had a similar conversation.
I figured this all out by using the internet, so it must be taken as the biblical truth.
In conclusion that roll cage site is gay for referring to it as EWS (The miller weld forum even says this). My recommendation to you would be to sell the bonco and buy a jetta.
ews is the same as hrew
Karl, my cage was from s&w, decent cage fit together pretty well for the money and the claw at bryan iron couldnt crush it.
i was just using my honed teacher senses to figure that one out.
Not sure about 79 Broncos, but F150 has run Mobil One with Motorcraft filters for most of its lifetime.
Not sure they even made 10w30 in 79.

haters gonna hate
If I buy you a case of flat grey primer, will you use it? Turd brown was played out in 1983, time to make it more contemporary.
