Re: Nothing special class3 pics
threw in some more wiring!
then fabbed up the twin stick operation
I can jam it in and out of 4H on the fly. 4L is on the co-dog side. If we need 4 low he's probably getting out anyway.....

Put the seats and "interior" back in the truck to complete the (opposite of a) luxury prerunner feel
Fabbed up a quick spare tire mount just so I'd have one out at KOH. I want to build a dual swing out rack later but this fit the need and the timeline.
At this point it was starting to look promising... I wasn't sleeping, and hadn't seen my family for days....

Broke the steering rod with the bend in it. Murphy's Law also dictated that when the broken parts went tumbling under the truck it would center punch the oil filter and wipe that out. lol

Re: Nothing special class3 pics
Your bronco looks killer. I'd say 90% of the time, the first trip ends with a broken something. Can I ask what may have caused the break of the tie rod?
I'm just here for the views. It helps me feel wanted.
Re: Nothing special class3 pics
Glad to see it's out on the trails under its own power though!
