Low Center of Gravity Broncos Picture Thread

rsharpnm · Sep 4, 2012

Hello everyone,

I am itching to see some LCG Broncos! I was going to revive my old 37's on 3.5" lift thread, but it has been moved to the archives.

Please post a picture or several of your Bronco along with the tire size and suspension or lift details. Feel free to post any other technical details if you would like.

I figure the LUBrs have their own thread, so the low Broncos should too ;D

Okay, I'll get this started, even though I don't really consider my Bronco a LCG build, because everyone knows a thread is worthless without pictures!

3.5" Stupid lift on 35" Xterrains. I am running the Bushwacker XL flares in the rear.

I don't but surely someone here has a pic of Adams stock height with 37's.

Not exactly sure what you're considering an LCG, but I did 'design' mine to have a lower COG. I had some new 5 1/2" Cage coils (saving for a special occasion!) and built coil towers that are 2 1/2" taller than stock. That gives me a 3" suspension lift but I have the dropout of a 5 1/2" spring. The front suspension is working very well so far.

Details on the front suspension include:
5 1/2" Cage coils
Taller coil towers
Custom shock hoops
Bilstein 7100 shocks
Lars Bars extended radius arms
Custom Heavy Duty Coil Cups
BC Broncos Track Bar
Chebby 1 ton steering
4x4x2 PS box

I'm sure Blazinchuck will chime in on here. He named his old red crawler FBG - Fat Bottom Girl.

I have 39.5's, 3.5" suspension (CAGE coils in front and Duff's in rear), 4 link in rear, D60's with CAGE arms. The front is narrowed with tubed core support and the rear is cut all the way out.

Here is how it sits in the garage.

Well since the Great Motoman did an action pic I thought I should add one.

SC74 · Sep 4, 2012

Thank you! And thanks JGbronc for the other pic from Super Cel.

This rig has been a 6 year build process and it's first wheeling trip will be to Fawl Crawl in October. I really need to update my build thread.
