Does it have a lift?? If so then 33s are good if not maybe 32s are OK. Does your bumper have holes from the old lights in it?? If so just drill them out to fit the KC studs and bolt them on. Run the wiring behind the same way the old ones were run.

Nice Bronco man!!!

How the heck do i hook up my 2 KCs on my bumper?

This is the easy way to wire them. You should be able to buy the kit just about anywhere or order it on line. http://www.kchilites.com/accessories/electrical-wiring/add-on-wiring-harness

Normal.

How much will bucket seats be?

I would watch craigs list or your local pull a part. There is some great write up on here about using seat from other models like from an explorer. Do a search you will find info on it.

32X11.50 or 33X12.5 tires?

Personally I would go with 32's with no lift but if you going to lift it soon I would go 33's

It is an 84 xlt

Gary he has the lights already mounted they just are not wired in yet.:thumbup

The KCs were already on when I got it.
And it doesn't have a lift...for now. Maybey with in the next year or so.
if I got 32X11s would they look stupid if I got a 4 inch sus lift?

just go 33s. if you dont and you lift it youll regret it. youll only have minimal rubbing on the radius arms maybe till you lift it. not sure if you have to space out the bumper on that year though.

Good looking rig for $900 i say you got a steal if it runs good. If your going with a 4" lift i would go for 33" 12.50 IMO pretty easy tire to come by as well. If you want to change up the exhaust check out my build thread in my sig i completely redid mine it might give ya some ideas. Like Dale (79F150) said search your local JYs after reading up on seats around here. Good luck man and keep us updated. opc1:

Wow nice score Brother, very similar to mine but yours is TAN with Brown or Bronze sides, mine is TAN with RED and the ever so attractive "porno red velvet" interior, it's a special club don't you know......lol lol

Do you intend to keep the side steps.....?

Enjoy! :beer

the threads are arranged by time and date. the most recent replied to thread gets bumped to the top. I like most use the "New Posts" link and if you bump your thread it will show so people can remember to look at it.

Bump your thread to bring it back or to get more people to notice it.

 

[79F150]

People "bump" their thread to the top of the forum to try to draw more attention or known as "ttt" to the top.

 

[Red91XLT]

"bump" bumps your thread to the top of the forum in which you placed/started the thread.


Welcome to FSB, hell of a clean looking '84 you have there. You've got a lot to learn, but luckily, all the resources you'll ever need are right here...

 

[LTP1996]

:thumbupThanks guys! And yes i do have a LOT to learn, espcialy scince i am only 15...

Honestly, go with 33's for tires size because (I know from experience) you'll want to go bigger lift but you won't have the money to go with bigger tires as well. Also, my dad has 32's on his F250 and he has a HARD time trying to find a spare unless he buys brand new and has them shipped. 33's you can find ALL day long on craigslist for cheap

Edit: I have room for 38's but I went and bought brand new 35's before thinking "do I want bigger tires?" lol

Wiring up your lights the best way is to use a relay wired to the battery and and the lights with a switch to operate the relay.

You can go somewhere like the zone and they sell relay kits that have the wiring diagram and everything you need if you do not know what you are trying to do.

Using the relay keeps the wiring run between the battery and the lights short for less amperage loss and then your switch just needs to handle the amperage to turn on the relay which is nothing really instead of what the lights will pull.
