My bad ... I just realized there were 3 of them in the video ... The first one was a mix of things, the black one was the Mustang V6 Dub Edition and the other was a MCA edition.. My fault Sean

Well the Bronco runs great and actually stops now. Did some brake bedding this afternoon. Not really a performance vehicle, but since I went with EBC Green stuff pads I figured I'd do it anyway. Also topped off the R-134a and it blows nice and cold now. It was on the low side before. And lastly gave it the Sea Foam treatment. Smoked liked a mosquito fogger for a few minutes.
What I learned was that my passenger locking hub is shot. There are no teeth on one of the rings. They were completely eaten off. Like I said I'll replace with Warn manual lockers and she'll be good to go. So far everything seems really good. I am now an expert at changing rotors and packing bearings on a '96 Ford Bronco.

I have that problem with my work truck. It's an F-350 reg cab long bed SRA with a powerstroke. I use it quite often to pull stuck semi's out of our dirt lot at work when they get stuck in the mud. But alteast once a month I forget to lock the hubs and end up falling on my *** in the mud trying to lock them. I wish it had auto lockers, I thought I had read somewhere that someone made a pretty stout set for those SLA Ford front axles.

No one makes auto lockers for it? Sure does suck when you have to get out and lock then in a foot of mud.

I have not found an aftermarket auto locker. I haven't looked very hard. My '99 F250 had manual hubs and I just made sure to lock them right before I got into the ****. I've just always liked the idiot proof manual lockers. But you are right, its really nice in the Raptor.

Ya, this was my last chance until two weeks from now for a detail, and for all I know it could be snowing by then. 
Thanks! Wish I could say the same. Way too many rock chips.

Car looks GREAT Nathan. Zaino looks super!!
I've got Perma Plate polymer on Bullitt (and it has proven itself on more than one occassion) and I'm trying 5 Star Shine (cause I'm a teflon junkie - except for my cooking pans [SS/Revere all the way]) on my Cruiser in the next few weeks. Let you know how it turns out. If it doesn't, I'm going Zaino in the spring.

Warn manual hubs FTW. No auto hubs for me... I mean if I can remember to reach for the 4X lever, I can remember to turn the hubs - before I'm in the shtuff.

I don't think I've even seen it before Jim's post. Guess I haven't been watching much tv though lately.

Anyway, I just could never get over these pics with 5 Star Shine - and no yearly Zaino maintenance.

How does it work? 
From my hw for psychology:
They give negative points.
