[bremsa]

Hi there folks!, happy new year.

My name is Sverrir Karlsson and I am 23 years old and I live in iceland.

Ive been a bronco lover all my life, rased up in the garage makin monsters out of early broncos.

I my self have a Bronco II with 71 bronco chassic.

I have 9" ford rear end with Lada niva disks (yeah they fit") and 1981 subaru 1800 calipers (they also fit... almost )
31 spline axle, power lock and 4.56 gearratio, bronco 74 front springs and ranco shocks,

front I have dana 44, with detroit locker, chromoly axles and 30mm cross. 4.56 gears,disk brakes and a stearing jack (dont know what u call it) hydraulic jack thats help with steering.

I have 351w with forged pistons,crane cam about 286° if i remeber correctly (dont remeber all the specs) holley street dominator aluminum manifold, edelbrock carb, ported heads, 9.5 compression, mds pro billed dist, mds 6al box , headers and fiew other goodies ,

new process 435 gearbox that has 6,69:1 in first and rev.

dana 20 transfer case, model 66.

so I have 4,56*2,6*6,69 .. thats make about 80:1 to the wheel ratio,

101" from wheel center to wheel center

and on top of all of this i have a bronco 2 body,

I am just about to be finished with this project.. (pics about 3 weeks old)
here you can atleast see what I am doing....

I was just about finished with this project earlyer this summer (with the bronco II chassic. auto tranny and brand new 302) but then I desided to
switch to early bronco chassic. (lighter and stronger)

any way, here are fiew pics of the project

ill start by showing u what this looked like when I got it. enjoy

and one of my fathers bronco....

dana 60, ford 460, 429heads nos , forged everything and god knows what, homemade c6, airlocks, airsuspension and just amazing machine where ever you look.

That is awesome. Good build bro. I like your dad's rig too. Welcome to the board.

 

[bremsa]

thanks alot. U mabie have seen the big loooong bronco from iceland. White one? that was built in the same garage as the 460 bronco. I come from a big ford family.. Rased in the garage around BB Ford engines and broncos mostly

 

[Scoop]

You Iceland guys sure know how to do fender flares!! ;D

Both look good. Welcome to the site. There are some really interesting rigs in Iceland.

 

[bremsa]

lol when these pics were taken of the 74 bronco, it was on unimog front and rear with 8.61 gearratio 2.56meters wide about 100" wide looked so cool

 

[Dan76]

You guys sure do build some sick lookin rigs.

You guys sure do build some sick lookin rigs.

Note to Bremsa - in this case, "sick" is a good thing!!

 

[73stallion]

you guys sure like the dick cepek tires up there, don't ya? better in the snow than all the others?

 

[bremsa]

lol... i got that part but thanks anyway

thanks guys. I must go to the garage tomorrow or sum and take new pics... Got all the body mounting brackets ready (had to make all of them) the engine connected, radiator in and connected, the fuel tanks moved and connected with a little pump to pump between tanks and almost everything done

 

[bremsa]

well the 44" dick cepek are really popular in snow yes, most popular of all the 44" tires I belive, some have 44" mudders (or atleast did use them, dont know if they make em anymore) some use 44" trexus and some use 44" superswampers,

but yeah the dick cepek is the most common 44" tires on these big trucks here,
When in deep snow we let almost all air out of the tires.. Down to 2-3 psi cars float better on top of the snow like that ... on 44" tires that are 18.5" wide and on 16-19" wide wheels u can go anywhere u want

but the Radial Irok 39-41" is really coming in strong also upagainst the 38"ground hawg and the 38" mudder

 

[Potshot]

Did I see that red Bronco II in one of the previous Iceland threads? Way cool, and putting it on a EB frame is a great plan. Nice work

 

[bremsa]

thanks alot but I havent posted here before so i dont think that is my truck that you saw

 

[Dan76]

So I youtubed a few Icelandic wheeling videos, wow that looks like alot of fun you guys are crazy!

 

[howiebilt]

Very nice , like broncos on steroids ! Cut Ground Hawgs and Cepeks with huge motors and beautiful fender flares .

I have room for more tire , but no windshield or heater ;D I wonder how long I would last ?:?


welcome !

[bremsa]

lol in like 25°f and 30/meters per second wind and heavy snow.. I think you will open the garage door.... go like this and close the garage door and go on ebay and find a new top for your bronco.. and propably put like 3 more heaters in the car lol

 

[rednck21]

i like that BII and welcome to the board!

 

[bremsa]

So I youtubed a few Icelandic wheeling videos, wow that looks like alot of fun you guys are crazy!

lol thanks... I gotta send u more videos later this winter when we have more snow %)
gotta show u how to take out a toyota hilux diesel %)

I am the only one left in my town in northern iceland that is running a v8 Jeep
so I have to stand up for the V8.. Usually I have to wait for them on top of some hill, I can see the diesel smoke sign long before I see those damn cars... out of coffie and cola and everything when those ricers show up... almost out of gas also :-X

Talking about youtube.. god i love that site!

It sure is fun going up to the side of , camaro, trans am, vette, M5 ,evo, sti on 315 drag radial slicks....
SEEYA that 4.6liter 32valve on 13psi is so powerful.. First time I tested the car. I was like Whaaaaaaaa .... i just could not belive the power... I had a 77 grand prix with 455, c4 vette, 2003 Ford F 150 Boss kenne bell blown 10psi (one of 500 made) and many more.. but the cobra is by far the most powerful of em all, it ran 11.56 on 124miles... Love that car
