There are no replacement parts made for the Bronco Trem. You will have to get lucky and find another trem.

YOu would be better to forsake the land of the living. That trem will drive you mad.

I wonder if a quick release from a bike would fit there.

Dude,

you should've bid on that Bronco trem/bridge that just sold on ebay. I've never seen the part that you are missing show up on ebay by it's self. Once in a blue moon you'll find half of a bronco tremolo/bridge sold with that part, but it's rare. You might get lucky searching on ebay under "guitar project" or "project guitar", but it's gonna take a miracle.


Good luck!

It was missing the same part if I remember correctly and someone paid $160 bucks for it.

I paid $75 for the whole bridge assembly a few years ago when I restored my bronco. The only thing it didn't include was the actual trem arm.

Yeah it was also missing the ring that goes around the trem screw. There was a complete trem that was pretty rusty that sold for $200 I believe
