Bronco exchange body build jig

Has anyone used this jig? I mean unless I was building multiple broncos I couldn’t justify it.

Wondering if there’s any plans floating around to build something similar. I searched and couldn’t find anything about plans for something similar. And I didn’t find any threads about this either

Haven’t checked that out yet, but interested to see what it is.
Where are you located? Anywhere near far northern California? I have a full rolling body dolly up in Redding right now.
Looking for a new temporary home.

If you go on YouTube to JasonandJonieBuilds I think he’s got a set of plans to make a wooden body cart…if I remember correctly.

First post looks like real jig to build, not a simple rolling body cart.

I have seen plans for the cart. Which is a great start.

But I have quarters that are way off do to rust. I have nothing to go off to start

Bottom of the page on the original link has a "Bronco Body Build Manual" $99.00 - Looks like it's got measurements & directions to build a new body - I wonder if the same can be used to square up or rebuild an original body? Anybody used this method yet?

So I am up in the Redding area as well and am looking to do some work on. I am fairly new to the Bronco world and would appreciate any insight you have

Hey JHill, that sounds great! Are you doing just a little work, or doing a full restoration?
Of course, it could start small and then end up roller coastering, and snowballing into a major redo. But what are the plans at this point?

 

[JHill1085]

I am making some pretty solid upgrades trying to get it to a good daily driver if I wanted to in the near future

Sounds like you won’t need the rotisserie then. But if you do go that direction, let me know and I can get a hold of the guy.

 

[DirtDonk]

Or too, if you ever head down towards the Bay Area, let me know and maybe I can get the rotisserie to hitch a ride with you!
He's done with it, but his gig down in Palo Alto ended, and so he doesn’t come down this way anymore.
