During this production span, there were 2 different axles offered the 9" which was standard in '78-'79 Broncos and available through 1985 Full-Size Broncos, or the 8.8" axle which was introduced in 1986. It's important that if you have an early 80's Bronco that falls between 83-86 that you identify exactly what axle is installed in your Bronco.

You no longer have to worry about finding a buddy to weld the brackets on your axle for your Bronco Equipped with a 9" axle. James Duff is now offering a Bolt-On option, allowing for a pain-free install. Another benefit of installing this bolt-on option is the main bar of the Torque Tamer will be closer to the center of your driveline, keeping it out of the way of obstacles. This will require the removal of 4 bolts that hold on your third member which will be replaced with the included studs. It comes Zinc plated and includes all required hardware to install.
Note: This is only compatible with a 9" axle. If you have 400 horsepower at the crank, 35-inch or bigger tires, and do aggressive off-roading, we recommend you install the torque tamer with the traditional axle weld-on brackets that come with the kit.
