I wish we could post videos! I had about 1 1/2"-2" in the pass seat. My console lock wouldn't allow my key to fit in due to the sand in the tumblers until enough sand jiggled out that I could wiggle it in!
The sand drags were a kick in the rear. I just wished my engine hadn't lost it's tune 2 days b4 we left. LUCKLY we were saved by Garry and I could drive it at all since that happened. SOOOooo many guys had fun at the sand drags it will be on the schedule again next year unless something drastic happens.
I didn't mention the sand drags. Even with my engine unable to get any roost off the starting line (full Christmas tree light etc) I still had the fastest speed of the event.
I used to "slosh" the Bronco back and forth in the river to get rid of salt and sand but I think I'll try an oscillating sprinkler today for several hours under it and move it several inches side to side to help flush it as clean as I can.
It wasn't today Â…. But a few weeks ago drove it to my brothers house to store it for my next life chapter. After 25 years as a Police officer put in my retirement paperwork , took advantage of the housing market, sold my house, bought at 5th wheel toy hauler. We are going to traveling a little bit then settling in Florida.
Already missing the Bronco , my plan is to stay 3 weeks in Daytona and go to the Turkey Rod run. I have never been but heard it's awesome event. So once I get the 5th wheel parked, make a run up to NC and pick the Bronco up for the event. After the event run it down to my sons house.
Good to see you escaping VA. I think you will appreciate Florida a lot more. Good luck with your retirement and wish you all the best.

Great fun meeting new Bronco people and making new friends.
Soooo, bit frustrating that one of the best names in alum radiators only last 4 1/2months when used daily on & off road.
No wear, no pressure points, just a defective weld btw the tube and header.
Lucky for me the warranty is great but if it happens again like it does to so many I will go back to brass for durability. My last 2 brass ones lasted for at least 15 yrs each.
This one is framed inside a triangulated tubed frt end and is supported across the entire bottom of the radiator on 1/2" of dense foam
The pic shows how entire bottom of rhe radiator is supported w/o stress or pressure points sitting on 1/2" foam
Love the color. Good JobGot Her All Painted FINALLY!!!
Not today but over the "long weekend" %) Installed new leaf springs and Super Shackles, fuel tank fill and vent hoses. Guess where I got it all...
