Tony, those look awesome! A ton better than what you had for sure.

I drove the rig for about 30 miles today. Started off rough. I have 2 new calipers in the front and the right one keeps sticking. I have to release the line pressure with the bleeder screw to free it up. I had to get home after one mile of the caliper sticking and the damn rubber piston cover was freaking on fire. I released it and it drove and broke fine after that. Wierd.

I have a new caliper to replace it with then I will do the master if that doesn't work. I tell you, it was awesome shooting down the road at 60 mph, tires wobbling, radio blasting Seven Dust, and the top off, with the new door inserts I installed today. I wiped about 3 years of stress clean with that trip. Now to Moab biotches!

As far as the site, I am sure the crew we have helping are not working on it Easter weekend. I would not expect NCB back up until Monday. SORRY!:cry:

Happy Easter friends.

Thanks for all the work on the board and sorry I think I sent you another one before I logged on here%)

Its great someone is worse then I am so I can point at them and tell the wife "see he gets to do it;D "

So I am watching a couple build threads and hoping to push the front axle forward 5 - 6" soon and thinking about airbags (research mode) for the front and rear suspension, that way when I drive up to the garage I can just air down the rig and fit into the garage with 42's or Bigger :eek:

FM <><







**Now I got Pat wondering if he can push 44's . LOL. **

Everytime I say "Airbags" Aaron gives me this look and says "there Tony goes with the airbags thing again". My thought was to use the Poly adjustable coil spring towers and instead of bolting them solid set them up with the airbags used on big rig air ride cabs (smaller units). That way you still have a semi normal spring suspension and when you need to lower to get in the garage or some other covered parking you could just dump the air bags. I thought it'd be good for a couple o inches. Of course you'd need to have coil springs front and rear.
Sorry Aaron.

Thanks for the updates Carl... I will stop sending you database error messages. Tony, your rig looks great with those big baloons under it. The wheels came out great.

My radiator is at a shop so no engine firing this weekend. I did bolt up my new protofab bumper yesterday and I must say it looks sweet. I have also been working out some of my electrical questions and picked up an optima battery.

Where were those pictures taken? You are right, the weekend weather was awesome and it was killing me seeing all these heeps out cruising topless.

A little progress update... My engine can now crank over and there's spark at the dizzy. My gauges will work soon and once my radiator gets back from being modified, a little antifreeze and fuel is all that's between me and a running rig! Driveable? not yet, running? Yes!

Hollister Hills..perfect place to test out your rig when complete!

so does this mean the "cam break in party" is soon?

I'd give you some crap about your choice of beer but my fridge is currently full of Coors Light, my college beer of choice. I'm almost ashamed to admit it, but when the weather gets warm, nothing beats it.

I figured that was Hollister. I will definitely go there in my rig one day, hopefully before too much longer.

The "cam break-in party" is probably just going to happen when it happens. I was going to put the word out last week for the weekend, but the bronco gods were conspiring against me, and unfortunately the weekend came and went with me waiting on parts. I am hoping to do it next weekend but who knows, my neighbors may be getting a tune up sometime midweek.

The Bronco budget is shot for the month anyway... A bumper, an Optima battery, and miscellaneous odds and ends added up quick!
