HI everyone im new to the world of bronco's i was given a '66 bronco half cab today and i finally got her home and on my drive way. she runs like a champ with a straight 6 but i have some questions that i cant answer from past threads. the passenger side of this rig sits real nice but the driverside is pinching and bending in half almost. i can tell that most the floor is gone and the braces need alot of help. im trying to figure out the best way to approach this should i just order all the channels from JBG and i was wondering if anyone has had a rig pinch like this?

thanks everyone

you are probably looking at replacing the floors, supports and rocker (full), this will take care of any sag that you are seeing. The floor replacement isnt too bad, just take a lot of measurements during reconstruction. There is a diagram with measurements on here, lemme find it. Looks like a pretty cool rig, and if it was given to you you are well ahead of the game!!! Welcome to the addiction.
