Tail Lights

Post by mcarlson11 »

Are the tail lights in 66/67 broncos the same as our trucks? I know the 67 have the backup lights in them, but Are they the same size?

The 67-72 F series tailights which have backup lights are the same shape also. The bolt right in. I can find pairs of those at my pull a part with the buckets for $10 a pair. Has all the wiring and the backup light bracket already mounted in the bucket.

There was a post on this about a month ago. One or two other people had ran the wires, used the newer tail lights and got backups in. I plan on doing it, someday.

I'd love to have this set-up in my Uni (stop light AND back up lights), but Uni tail light covers are different....(sigh) :help:

The reason why I was asking is I plan to get LED taillights and found these in my search:

http://members.tripod.com/~quicksilver6 ... light.html

Was not 100% sure if they were the exact same size. But that is a good thing they are. Now I have to decide if I want backup lights in with the taillights, or mount them hidden under the rear bumper.
