Project Cash* Firts car show *

How does it drive with the inboard shocks?

It seems to drive great

 

[apachetech]

Very nice! Your project turned out great!!

 

[stupidboy]

Awesome man, glad to hear you're driving it!!

 

[J-man]

I must say I'm really liking this bestop I haven't put the windows in and prob won't

 

[J-man]

It would have been so much easier to change the oil pan gasket before I put the motor in O well. I got it changed last night with a one piece gasket. Hopefully this one wont leak.

Freaking awesome project man. Looks great. Haha i'm not too far from utah I might hit up your buddy for paint.

Flex it out

Went to the muffler shop to put on the lift to flex it out. The rear tires tuck awesome and have pretty good articulation on the front. I will have to be careful though, the front tires will hit the front fender flexed like this and turning. What shall I do. taller lift? smaller tire. O well I'll take it easy for now.

For the hell of it put the bronco in a car show last night. It was a lot of fun. Way to go Darrin, member Bronco Bandit won best of show with the dark blue bronco behind mine. Good Times.

More lift.. no
shorter tire.. hell no
skinnier tire.. maybe

Cut/Trim or taller bump stops. Knowing what you went through to keep it uncut though, bump stops or smaller tires.

I agree. No more lift, and no shorter of a tire.

That's a sweet looking rig. Nothing sexier than seeing a tire stuffed up into an uncut EB during a flex.

The only reason I won was because of a coin toss. The judge could not make his mind up. As it turns out he has owned Two Bronco's in the past and still love's them. If you live in Utah and get a chance to see Rick's Bronco you will appreciate the hard work that went into an awesome machine. WAY TO GO Rick.

J,
Quite the neck snapper. Give yourself a big pat on the back. You should be proud.

Thanks Dave I'm just trying to get it ready for Bronco Safari in Moab next weekend. You wouldn't think that if you came and saw it right now. I've got the front of the enging torn off. Changing timing cover water pump and front main seal but hope to have it put back together tonight or tomorrow

Hey J-Man,

Sooooooooooo sweet! Got a question on the wheels... I know they are 7's but what's the backspacing? They tuck nice!

 

[motoman]

Incredible job!! VERY VERY NICE! Congrat on getting it on the road

 

[BLUE72]

Rick
Bronco looks awesome. I need to see it in person. Mine has been on the road a few times but I still need a few things finished. I will try and call you tomorrow.

Can you please tell me the combination of lift and tire/wheel size you chose to get this all to fit? I am in the process of building an uncut and am trying do determine how much lift vs tire and wheel size I can go without rubbing.

Right now we look like we are going with a 2.5 inch lift. Any thoughts? THX

It was great to see you and your truck at Moab for the Safari. It looked great in the rocks. Congratulations on winning that trophy at the Show and Shine in Moab too! Here's a pic shamelessly pilfered from Sean Gaudette.
