What have you done to your Bronco today?

If you keep that jack and the chunk of 4x4 under the back end..... you can run that tire. Lol

My Currie rear end was supposed to be delivered last Thursday, but the trucking company didn't have any local drivers who could deliver until today. Of course I got impatient and decided to test fit a 33" tire. 15x8, 4" backspacing 33x12.5 Wildpeak. The lift going on is a wildhorses 2.5". I realize the 12.5 wide tire won't fit with my lift and being uncut, but it is fun trying convince myself I could do it. The rear is moving back an inch and I won't know the actual lift height until I put everything on, I am pretty sure these are the original springs and they have lost some curve so the lift will be higher than 2.5" from current.

I really like the wider look with the 12.5" tires, but I know the choice will come down to 33x10.5x15 or 32x11.5x15. I was going to move to 17" rims, but I will probably only do that if I have clearance issues on the front disc brake conversion.

Would imagine they might be slow this time of year

Working on the steering box frame reinforcement. Getting the frame inserts in there nice and clean is a little tricky but turned out good.

Working on my brother-in-law's Bronco. His original grille was too far gone so a new one was ordered and I painted it Chevy Victory Red. We have bodywork ahead over the next few months prior to a full repaint. He wanted Red but I picked the shade and he's happy.

Finished up the frame reinforcement at the steering box. Found the drivers side body mount to the frame was bent down. Couldn't find fender washer that big locally, so I made a 3/8" shim. Now the bumper lines up with the grill nice.
