[updated:LAST EDITED ON 05-Apr-02 AT 10:08 AM (EST)] I have heard talk of a 4 Door Bronco or a centurion package on a bronco. I have seen this on the 90's styles but never seen or heard of them on a 73-79 Ford. Was this a factory option? Anyone have a picture? And does anyone have any pictures of a rear Window Defroster? Thanks in Adavance

 

Centurion is a custom builder, they are not part of Ford. There are all kinds of variations that they have done. They even do Chevys.

 

Centurian Vehicles in Michigan would buy new trucks from Ford, graft them into their own creations, and then sell them to the general public. They started with a crew cab pickup and mated it to the back end of a Bronco. They had two versions: 1/2 Ton (C150) and then the 1 Ton version (C350). The C150 was built on an F150 SuperCab chassis and the C350 was built on a stretched version of an F350 regular cab chassis. I'm not sure if they are still in business, but this was their contact info from about 10 years ago.

First off thanks for your service. I am 59 and disabled as well so I can relate but won't say I fully understand.

Second thing is we would like to see some pic's cuz pics are cool. Especially on a custom truck like yours.

Tranny being one quart low is a lot of oil missing. Is there a wet spot under it when ya park it to give an idea where it is coming from? I am not even sure what tranny you have. Do you know? An E4OD would be my guess. Look for a place it is leaking after running it in one spot for a wile and tell us what tranny you got and we can go from there.

I am old school like carbs and C6 3 speed autos so my first thought is a bad diaphragm in the vacuum modulator and the fluid is being sucked into the intake by vacuum and getting burned off. This I know after a time will damage injectors. But I don't know if an E4od has a vacuum modulator. The A4OD does cuz I just replaced it on my 90 Ranger doing just what I described.

 

No leaks at All??? Bottom of my tranny is completely DRY as is bottom of my motor..NO leaks anywhere???

 

Is it an E4od and does it have a vacuum modulator? Ya may have miss the edit to my last post.

 

All this forum is WAY over my head..im still trying to figure how to post a picture??? NOT computer wizzard here...I wrote ALL I know about my truck including VIN numbers & centurion numbers OFF My title in this post???

 

Also your in the wrong forum. Try posting here or in the powerstroke forum

1987 - 1996 F150 & Larger F-Series Trucks

 

Okay Bud it's all good. NumberDummy our resident Ford parts man will be along to decode your vin than we will know what tranny ya got.

And try this for pic's

It seems awkward, but whenever you "insert a picture" to one of these threads, the forum is looking for the picture somewhere on the web (which is always available) rather than from somewhere on your hard drive (which isn't always available).

 

I just sent Bill (NumberDummy) a PM so he will be along shortly I hope to run your Vin number so we can figure what tranny ya got.

 

There are all kinds of variations that they have done.
