And now the repair, and what a fun one it was...;) There is a fun river bed run out in western Kansas called the Pecker Head Run. The knickname my dad called my brother and I (yes, still) is Pecker Head. I have to run it. So I did and found out why everyone plates the frame where the shock mount att...

Once it was cool enough to run around traffic it was time to get the family and the kids comfy. Added rear section to the cage to mount the rear bench and harnesses. While Charlie was at it, why not some sliders with steps? http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a409/pricetrey/1975%20Bronco/678D49D3-4F...

Holy moly, another two years! Lots of updates and a repair! Motor kept getting warm in traffic, so I had Devlin Rod & Custom squeezed a Ron Davis rad with Spal fan...it gets TIGHT. Low pro water pump, machined pulleys, and while we were at it ran the engine bay side of a Vintage Air setup for down t...

Fenders look to west coast broncos and hood looks to be wildhorses

Sweet bronco - any link or additional pictures? Looks like it migh be a TTB

Subscribed. Really looking foward to watching this take shape.

Holy cow...TWO YEARS! I can't believe I haven't updated this thing. Motor was TOAST with shot bearing and a piston skirt laying in the pan. It now has a 5.0 Roller stroked to 331 and mildly massaged GT40 heads. It has tons more power...thank Gawd for 4 wheel disc power brakes! Fought some overheatin...

Awesome start and fun to see another EB, although this puts my little Sweet Pea to shame!;) LOL

Any updates?

Awesome story and lovin the solid axle Steed!!! Thank you for your service! Jim is a great guy! He chatted and shared a ton of EB info when I was collecting parts for my build a couple of years back. I ended up buying a set of old style rear shock mounts from him for the build. I have a build in the...

Boy, that looks like fun!!! Where in OK are you and what racing association are you running? I'm in south central KS. Might be fun to make the drive!?

Thanks for sharing experiences and updates!

Hate not having an edit button...too quick with a submit hit. Not sure if you want to consider but the "4x4x2" steering box swap on the early broncos is a pretty popular swap taking a F100 4x4 box and swapping the 2wd gears out so you can mount it on the outside of the frame rail. It might be worth ...

Not sure how I missed this... Awesome build with a solid axle 78/79 bronco!!! It looks sweet! Do you have any vids running it out?

Way cool!

How have you liked the Grabbers? I've seen lots people that run them in the desert but curious how they are in the Midwest dirt.

Well, some news on the "progress" as of late. Took the old girl over to have the carb tuned (Holley TA was running rich) and a little mechanical dial-in attention. The owner of the shop thought the motor was making a little racket so he pulled the pan. Yuck, trashed main bearings and journals, trash...

That is exactly right! Fun watching the smiles! We have really short vid of them putting around into the driveway around the block. Those smiles lock it in for at least another year or two!;)

And YES, power washer time!!!

Well, I suppose its not officially ready to go until my girls get to go for a ride!!! http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a409/pricetrey/E90B1576-DDCB-45D7-86BE-AA187B27A172-3544-000005071A532ABA_zps14749d19.jpg http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a409/pricetrey/847D335A-0476-4588-8480-02B8728FA407-...

Well, it's "finished...lockers, 4.56 gears, rear axles, rear disc, limit straps, new axle brake lines, pro portioning valve, steering fluid cooler!!! THANKS NATE & ROCKWORX4x4!!! Got a surprise in a couple weeks and hopefully to KSRocks shortly after!!!;). Woohoo!!! http://i1032.photobucket.com/albu...

Thank you!!! I'm stoked to get it out!!! Super close!

THANKS! Can't wait to drive it! Needs an alignment and the lockers and we're good to get dirty!!! Woohoo!

Oaky, well "phase one" is done and ready for "phase two" (ie TrueTrac, Locker and rear shafts/discs)... I might have to start calling Sweet Pea SnowBall!!!
