Early Bronc I had a '66' half-cab. I took her through several changes in the years I owned her. The original drive train was a 170ci six and a three spd column shift. I transplanted a 289, with a toploader 4 speed. Next mod was to drop the suspension mounts to give it a 3" lift. then I...

So I'm out in the driveway on a Sunday afternoon trouble shooting a wiring issue with the Dodge accessory towing wire harness. My back-up lights were not working, they did before I installed the harness. Since I needed the truck in reverse, but I didn't want to hear the chime, I was putting it...
