The Bronco is getting close to driveable.
Installed a rear driveshaft. Sometimes you can visit a wrecking yard with a tape measure and get lucky. In this case, a front driveshaft from a '90's Explorer fit the bill with a few tweaks.
The transfer case output of the BII was a 1210 double cardan joint, and the rear end a flat flange with 2.5" bolt spacing. I don't have anything against 1210-sized U-joints, considering I'm making less than 140 HP, but finding a shaft with them is tough. The Explorer used a 1310 double cardan output for it's front yoke, so I grabbed it.
The Explorer front yoke fits the rear of the BW1350 transfer case, and I must admit, I like the extra strength.
The front diff end of the Explorer shaft was strap bolts. I grabbed the rear slip yoke off the same Explorer and it fit the front shaft perfectly.
My transmission is the Toyo R4 four speed. If it was the five speed version of this trans I would have had to shorten the shaft a couple of inches.
Speaking of trans, the shifter was bent forward and right, which made the reach to it difficult. I submerged the plastic housing in water, heated the shift rod with acetylene and tweaked it a bit.
Got an exhaust welded up. It's a simple straight section dumping into a Magnaflow muffler and then the stock resonator, then dumping in front of the right rear tire. I got the Bronco out of the garage and drove it around the block, relieved that the trans syncros are sound and there is no bearing noise.
Next up is to wire the alternator and jet the carb...
