Lets see... New old school dual shock mounts, shocks, powder coated coils, spare tire rack, tailgate handle, spare tire latch, spare tire lock and a new shiny bumper, new polished stainless tailgate handle and every nut and bolt we took off was replaced with case hardened stainless. Probably forgot stuff but oh well. The coils are stock height WH prerunners and 8 new WH shocks. The ride is sooo much better is unbelievable. I have to give a big thanks to Josh Rubins of the So Cal Broncos board. Great job welding them on and it was free. :eek: If you see this I owe you another case of beer, well my dad will buy it with my money. ;D The red coils attract all the girls in the high school parking lot too. :cool:

Looks great. Ihave the old school set up too and am happy with the ride/performance. All the chrome/stainless looks very sweet.

Looks good. Do you think dual shocks put a little bit too much dampening on the suspension? Did you notice your suspension slowing down or anything afterwords?

Anyway very nice Bronco, and keep reeling in the high-school chicks

It does ride a lot tighter on the suspension but for a daily driver it works awesome. I drove it to the San Diego gathering today and it rides so much better compared to single shocks. I havent hit dirt with it yet but Ill let you know.

And for the record Im only a 17 year old Junior in high school so the whole chick magnet thing doesnt sound wierd. ;D
