What's Up?

I am new to this site, but have recently purchased my second Bronco. We are actually in the process of a prerunner build. I have been using this site for info for a while. Figured I would finally join.

Welcome. Just watched the vid & looking forward to what you guys do. Gotta love the "It's way stronger than a solid axle" comment. That'll start some wars, but for what we do TTB is hard to beat.

Yeah, had to throw that in there. Sometimes, just have to fan the flames a little. LOL

The "Braptor" project (like what we did there?) will be a mostly bolt on project. We did considerable custom work on our Rock Crawler Bronco and just don't have the time anymore. Can you help me with the big players in the cut and turned TTB market and other parts? Here are the ones I know about: Desolate, Giant, Autofab and Solo.

Between those 4 companys you can build any level of bronco your wallet can support. Solo and Desolate have some awesome products that are bolt on ready to roll in a long weekend with a few buddies.

Dave at Threat motorsports is just 1 more to add to that list. But yeah, like Ryan said - those guys all have some cool bolt on stuff - in varying performance levels.
