Newbie question: What is a LUBR???

[magstar67]

I have been an old Mustang owner for years and have always liked the EB's too, my dad had a '67 and '72 when I was a kid. I want to buy one at some point so have been lurking this site for several months now trying to educate myself and occassionally see the term LUBR...What the heck does that mean???

Thanks ahead of time for educating me! Jeff

LUBR=Lifted Uncut Bronco.

I see guys use LUBER as well. Though LUBR isn't an accurate acronymn for a lifted uncut bronco, LUBER adds an E to it for whatever reason????

Theres just something about the look of an uncut bronco that I love. I wish i could own one and not cut it, but that is just one of the first steps a bronco ouner does when they starts to improve on his/her new favorite ride.;D

No need to cut 'em up with all the great lift kits avaialble these days.

Yes, technically it should just be LUB.

The original acronym actually referred to the the OWNER of a lifted uncut Bronco. The owner was a LUBE or Lifted Uncut Bronco Enthusiast but an "r" was added at the end to make it LUBEr. See this post on BFIX which I believe is recognized as the earliest reference to this term. But now the term LUBR refers to the Bronco itself and adding the E just makes it easier to spell!

Then if you put some 20" spinners on you would have a LUB on DUB's. The best way to make your LUBER look GOOBER.

Magstar, speaking of Magstar wheels, I did once see a couple of 5x5.5 Magstar wheels for sale, but he only had two. Would look cool on a LUB, LUBR, LUBER. Plus, the front 4x4 hub wouldn't fit through the hole.
