[78Scronco]

OK, I can't stand it anymore, I Want an extended Bronco! Can't stop thinking about it for awhile now. Just need a good tub to start with! just thought I'd get that off my chest...

 

[cobralee]

Hey blue, check out kb6677, Tito, ponyracer and my "Stretch"!!! Then there's the big stretch!!!!;D;D;D;D

 

[ponyracer]

It's amazing what you can do with an extra 15 inches!!

You need to stay off those web sites!! Its not normal to be that big...... But, it would be cool....

goin in

Just pulled one in the garage and it aint comin out till its longer.

I am doing one as well. moving the axles and adding to the frame should end up in the 110 to 114" area with 39's and mog axles. Should have lots of room for the kid and camping gear.

NGA I looked at your build and think that it is great. I have seen Tito’s before. I wish I had the room for a project like that but I just don’t. I will end up buying someone’s when they are done with it.

I'm still thinking of possible using a 64-66 truck bed sides to do this if I can find one around for a decent price. But if I could find a decent tub close to me that would be nice to start with. and then possible putting it on 78/79 big bronco frame for strength reasons and not having to extend the eb frame.

KB6677-Details?

Quick version- built starting with two blank frame rails from Advanced Frameworks, '01.5-02.8. 12" stretch, added 12" behind the "b" pillar from another eb tub, cut in the same place, added sheet metal along the bottom to fill the gap, rear axle moved back 2" to end up with a total wb of 106. Everything from the Apillar fwd is in stock eb location.......... 60's front and rear, detroit, detroit, 4.88s, PSC rock ram assist steering, originally a 357sefi, now a 392 sefi, C4, Atlas, custom dash, cage tied into the frame in 6 places, traditional eb suspension-5.5 coils front, 5.5 lift rear leaves, 3" body lift built into the custom body mounts,has run a plethora of tires.House of Kolor paint and flames........ Now living in a retirement garage in Gerton, NC sitting on 40"MTRs, goes out to sonic for ice cream and taken out to play in the snow from time to time before the state puts salt on the roads. It is dated but still fun to drive-has run trails from Tellico to Paragon to Outerlimits in Johnson valley. take the sticky BFG Krawlers off, put on the MTRs and run 70 on the interstate.
I'll stop now before NGA accuses me of blowing my own horn.

That may be the bronco project that I bring home with out telling the wife and get into some serious trouble over.

What could she really do to me????

Wait dont answer that.
