Hey guys,
I got a 72 Bronco that i have got a full width HP D44 and 9 inch for , and i'm getting ready to put the axles under it. I want you to post pics and some details of your Broncos with full width axles to help me out with some ideas of exactly how i'm going to do my buildup. Any pics and info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I moved the wedges on the axle in 2 inches per side so my coils still have a little bow in them but not much. Theres lots of info on the site if you search through it. Things to consider are custom made track bar and steering. Long tube headers will most likely not work with the hp front end. Im running 17x9 wheels with 5.5 backspacing so they are sucked back in alot but i think it looks just about perfect now. 3.5 lift 2" bl. 35's Sorry about the rambling my mind is not strait right now.

Here are some of my brothers. Mine still has stock width axles but my wheels only have 2 1/2" of backspacing and they are about 11" wide so mine is about the same width. Keep in mind that he has really wide tires and there are no flares on his in these pics. (He has flares on it now but I don't have any pics since then)

Here a few of mine. I moved my rear axle back 4 to 5 inches. I moved the wedges in to match the stock coil buckets on the front axle.

Thanks MikeEB and nope, it's all steel. I did some (ok a lot) of sheet metal replacement. But I'm glad that I did. I like the steel body! ;D
