Yeah I'm going to switch my dealership if they can't confirm my Order# or get me some sort of confirmation. I can't wait for the days when all cars are as easy to order as Tesla. The antiquated dealership model is just stupid at this point (for ordering...maybe not for service, etc.).

Thanks Okie! So when you made the change did you get an email confirmation as well? My order was originally placed by this dealer without any input from me on 1/20 and when I finally got in touch with them it took me 2 weeks to get them to change the color to the right color. And I've never...

Is everyone getting this confirmation when their orders are placed? I had to practically teach my dealer how to order one (it literally took two weeks to get done!) and I never got any confirmation. Also...when you log in to your Ford Account does the picture of the Bronco on the screen look...

Hey man! Glad to see you still on here! We like to stay in Southern Shores and then drive up to Carova (about 30min) a few times during the week. Southern Shores is just closer to Kitty Hawk and other stuff and very quiet on the beach. If you want to spend more time on Carova you may want to...

Hey everybody...long time since I checked in! My '76 is still running strong. I decided not to lower her at all since it was going to be too many changes to make it happen. I'm still considering swapping in a new throttle body system, but haven't pulled the trigger on anything there yet. My...

This is good to hear. It seems like full stuff would happen very rarely and be not a big deal. I just have to figure out if I can lose that 1.5" on the cheap. Is it OK to just remove a couple leafs from an 11-leaf spring pack? either way I'll need new springs up front...and probably shocks.

Yeah I have like three sets of driveshafts at this point so I'm hopeful I can swap them around and make something work. This truck came to me on the 5.5" Duff Monster system. I lowered it to 3.5" and now want to go down again. And in between I had a shaft snafu that caused me to end up with a...

Ah...thank you. This is the kind of reasoning I was looking for. Not happy to hear, but glad I did before trying myself and causing a lot of downtime. My original arms are long gone and I can totally see how changing those arms would be more work than I'm looking to get into on this. I will...

Yeah I saw that and was looking at the truck and wondering why that is. I probably just need to call Duff and talk to them about it. I figured I'd check on here first and see if you guys had any other thoughts I should be considering first. Thanks!

yes THIS...this is what I'm trying to accomplish. Performance without the lift. I'm not prepared to go full custom chassis, but probably anything else up to that point. I just don't want to have to take her completely apart again. A suspension swap I could knock out in a couple hours if it...

I'm more wondering if I can get away with 33/35" tires on 2" BL with little-to-no SL...while maintaining performance. Just want her to squat down a bit and feel more stable at speed.

Yeah I'd rather not go that route as I have a lot of blood, sweat, and tears in this one so I'm sentimental. I've literally been over every square inch of this truck and changed (improved) almost everything. The only things I haven't done is paint and body work. She has a 351w with a mild...

Yes. This is why I'm interested in doing this. If you're not crawling over boulders you don't need all the flex and suspension travel. I'm looking for this build to evolve into something faster than it is a rock crawler. Very sound on the street and trail. I like the lower stance on the...

I have a '76 with a 2" body lift and a 3.5" suspension lift (Duff Monster system with long arms and everything). Currently running 35x12.50s. Truck is cut pretty significantly (unfortunately normally, but maybe good thing here). I would like to lower the truck as much as I can while...

Thanks man! I'm hoping to hold on to the long arms but i'll hit you up if that changes!

mmmmm...slurpees

Oh yeah and I'd have to swap my drive shafts too. The ones I have are Woody's and awesome and brand new, so the cost of this change is adding up on me. I have a vision for this truck though and it's lower and faster...more trail runner stance than rock crawler. Oh I also want to install a...

I want to lower my truck. Currently I have a James Duff monster suspension 3.5" lift and a 2" body lift. I may be able to drop the body lift to a 1" lift, but maybe not so I'd rather avoid it (unfortunately). It appears I have plenty of room to lose the 3.5" suspension lift. I was looking at...

Ah interesting...that's good to know. The guy who was helping me source it told me that, but I guess he got the truck or year wrong. Is there some way to tell or some reason to know? i.e. were 351s different in different years? I have done a lot of digging online today and found a bunch of...

Thank you all for the advice and tips. The 351w came out of a 1979 F-100 and was built for me by a professional engine builder. This is one of the only things I didn't have anything to do with which may be good for the truck, but bad for my knowledge of how it got to this point! The only...
