Does anyone know of a good Bronco shop in the Bay Area (San Jose)? I am looking to have my frame and suspension, etc. rebuilt. The frame is a rolling frame and is separate from the body.

Thanks.

Wild horses would be the closest if you are looking for a bronco specific shop, they are in Stockton Ca, just be carefull when you go there as there will be thousands of dollars of stuff in there shop you will want ;D .

Jim of Jim's Bronco Stable could do that type of work pretty easily. He's in S. San Jose. Right now he's building a multipurpose dune-type EB. He grafted the TTB front susp from a Ranger onto it and 4-linked the rear.

You are correct. Wild Horses has closed their shop and converted most of it to warehouse space.

Thanks for the replies and contacts. I got in touch with Andrew at Baja and he seems really cool and can do the work I need. I also sent an email to Jim at Bronco Stable and I'll see where that leads.

Any other reputable shops that come to mind, just in case these guys are too busy at the time?

Thanks again.

Thanks for the props Justin. I have since shut the shop down in hopes that I will have more time with the new baby boy. So far I am right.

I am in contact with stingray427 and it looks like I could be helping him on his rebuild. ;D I am looking forward to it...
