Guys, the knuckles on the '76-'77 Bronco axles are the same ones that are on the '78-'79 Bronco and '72-'79 F150, right? That's my recollection, and my google-fu appears to be malfunctioning. |

I don't think so. If I remember correctly where the tie rod mounts is in a slightly different position or thickness. That's what causes them to rub on 15" rims. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong though. |

Phyler is correct. The 76 and 77 knuckles where the tre mounts are slightly bent toward the tire where as the 78-79 are straight and slightly lower and just a bit beefier. |

Cool, thanks. Anyone able to provide the measurement between the center of the knuckle hole where the tire rod connects on the '76-'77 knuckles? |

If I remember correctly the 78-79 knuckles also have more clearance around the axle. |

I'm not going to get over to the 76 until after the weekend. |
