Classic 1970’s Ford Bronco Sound Deadening

Upgrade Your Classic 1970’s Ford Bronco with Sound Deadening

The 1970’s Ford Bronco is not only the most desirable but also the most available version of the SUV manufactured by Ford. Older generation Ford Bronco’s are sought after amongst car enthusiasts, for its cool design and its ability to crawl over rocks and slog through muddy trails, but many people are surprised to hear that the Ford Bronco’s interior is loud. Those restoring the classic 1970’s Ford Bronco often take the extra time and the money to install automotive sound deadening during restoration to quiet their ride.

B-Quiet Ultimate Automotive Sound Deadening Products

If you love your Ford Bronco but are yearning for quieter ride, B-Quiet.com offers a range of inexpensive automotive sound deadening products. One of B-Quiet’s most popular products is Ultimate Automotive Sound Deadening which can be easily installed in your Ford Bronco. B-Quiet Ultimate is a peel and stick material which can be applied to all metal surfaces in your Ford Bronco. It absorbs structural and mechanical vibrations from gears, engines, transmission, tire and road noise, converting them into low level heat. 

Why Sound Deadening Matters in a Classic Bronco

Classic Broncos were built tough but not quiet. Noise typically comes from:

  • Engine vibrations traveling through the firewall and floor pan.
  • Road and tire noise amplified by aggressive off-road tires.
  • Wind turbulence caused by the Bronco’s boxy shape and thin doors.
  • Cargo and tailgate resonance that turns the rear cabin into a drum.

Sound deadening materials absorb vibrations, block noise transfer, and reduce heat, creating a more comfortable ride for daily driving or weekend trails.

How to apply Ultimate Sound Deadener to your Ford Bronco

Ultimate can be applied to your Ford Bronco in a few key places, such as the dash, doors and floor. 

To apply B-Quiet Ultimate to the dash and doors of your Ford Bronco, simply remove the interior panels and peel and stick the ultimate sound deadening material to these surfaces. The floorboard can also be covered in Ultimate by removing the seats and carpet, which takes only a couple of hours to complete.

Cost of Sound Deadening Your Ford Bronco

The cost of sound deadening your classic Ford Bronco depends on how much coverage you want. For a full installation (floor, doors, roof, and cargo area), most owners will need about 2 × 50 sq ft rolls and 1 × 12 sq ft roll of Ultimate, plus VComp for added insulation.
