SpareParts Build Thread...Linked and tons!

[bigmuddy]

Not much has changed on my Build… just added the new hood. It’s about due for a complete makeover again. The last 10 years have been a blast, but hard on the paint job!

New hood?

After the wreck, I had a black primer hood on it for OCBR. I have a Bronco Design hood on it now. All the graphics are done in Vinyl….I still need to do the grill.


I haven’t decided on a new paint scheme yet….more than likely it will be changed up too.

Finally all put back together, cb antenna and CD player has to be reinstalled but thats just plugging them in.

Just following your build from another thread. Looks awesome! So are you running full length Dana 60/ one tons here? Trying to get some good images that show how much wider it really is.

Yes, mine are out of a 1988 F-350. I’ve had multiple sets of tires on it. The ones I have are 17x9 wheels with a 4.75” BS and 40x13.5 Nitto’s. That’s probably as narrow as I’ve had on it.

I didn't get time yesterday to post the progress, I got too tied up working.

Here's some pics of the bumpers, they are a work in progress. Removable receiver mount for the winch on the front.

Cage is getting mocked up, it is the Trailworks kit. The rear supports "down bars" are cut wrong, they fish mouthed the wrong ends. If I have time I'll fix it, if not I'll call them on Tues. and see what they will do.

Triple sticks work, I don't like how far the throw is on the 203. So I might modify it again, LOL.

Rear brakes are installed, weld on calipers, 73 Impala Calipers, lines and shoes, 83 F-150 rotors with the axles turned down to clear inside of rotor. I still have to get the right studs, these are just mocked up right know.

I'll get some better pics of the triple sticks and brakes when I get it back on the lift.

Got to get back to work.

Hi David
A couple of questions if you don't mind, I am in the process of building a 74 bronco as a trail rig . With your 203/205 doubler did you have any drive line issues with the rear drive shaft?
Thanks Donnie

The rear driveline was pretty short with the stock wheelbase. Before I stretched it and linked it… I did run a center limiting strap to keep the center from overextending the CV driveshaft. I’m currently at 99” WB with 14” travel shocks and have no issues with the rear driveline and still running a doubler.
