What wires from the 5901 are connected to what wires on the Bronco. AudioVox lists this as a reverse polarity, Type C, needing a couple of relays.

Page 26 of the Viper 5901 Install Manual has a description, but no diagrams.

Page 37 of the Viper 5701 install Manual has a description and diagram of what you might need.

I used this set up on my brothers 1999 Dodge Ram Pickup. Diagram supplied by The 12Volt.com in the relay section. First time I tried it, I had the switch and motor reversed and blew a fuse. Reversed my connections on switch and motor and it works great.

Relays SHOULD always have 85 as the coil ground as 86 as coil power, in practice unless there's a built in diode it won't make any difference.
I do agree that being anal the diagramme is technically wrong, it won't make any difference.
There are actually ISO pin conventions for everything on a car.

Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.
