Re: Rear shock install (Jessica)

Well we had our off road trip this weekend, it was a blast. The reat setup kicks butt. Now we have to do the front to match Princess. Coilovers and bumps are on da way. If it all works out, I hope to have that on Jessica by the Baja 1000.

I have a 94 Bronco....I love it. Thanks to BajaBronco13 and tcm glx for convincing to buy one. My brother Tony did most of the build and delivered it to me in June.

Re: Baja 500 2010

The trip was awesome and my new ride kicks butt. Thanks to Chris and Tony for bugging me to sell my FJ Cruiser and to Tony for setting it up. It is much more comfy and roomier than my previous rig and she is a looker. Man, everyone loves the FSBs. :D
