Hey!

Well, I'm sure some of you already know me

i´m Paulo, from Buenos Aires, Argentina and this is my 79 Bronco since 2008.

Originaly 351M C6 transmissión.
Now Cummins 6BT, ZF5 Trans and now I´m swapping the 9" for a Dana 70

Yo Paulo,
Congratulations on your power train enhancements!

If I recall, you have been planning the 6BT for awhile.

Keep in touch here friend!

Hi man, Thanks

This project is taken me so much time.

I´m not a professional a builder or welder. I work in an office and this is just my hobby.

btw I took a pair of Dodge Ram 2nd gen engine mounts and I made these adapters to the frame.

Hi @abrojal, I do remember your Bronco from a while back. Nice to see you on the site again. Looks like you've been busy. The engine install is super clean..How about some video of you driving it around??

Thanks man!

It´s not finished so, there are no diving vids

Im working on the transmission crossmember and the rear axle too

btw I will need a new double cardan, and big transfercase yoke. My D 70 uses 1410 universal joint.

Let me tell you this..For a guy working in an office you have some pretty good fab skills.

Thanks, I have professional builders friends, and I have learned a lot with them. I have seen many "fummins" projects and I have taken some ideas from them.

I did a "carnage" with the Radiator Core Support Mounting to make room for the intercooler. Basically half of the intercooler is inside the Core Support now.

Terrific job!

Thanks

 

[abrojal]

Well, I need to work with this

 

[abrojal]

That's awesome... Really cool 👍
I think we have a future FOTM contender here 😊

FOTM again?

 

[abrojal]

Why not 🤷 when was the last time you ran?

I think it was 3 Fotm and 2 Foty.
I shared tons of pics and vids
