Baja Oj Build

Post by Baja OJ »

August 2013 I had the opportunity to rebuild my bronco "Baja Oj" with Richer Racing.

My goal with the build was to do some minor upgrades, but that never happens in off road fabrication. The guys at Richer Racing are great to work with and I'll let the pictures tell the story.

Sorry, I do not have the part number on hand, but this radiator by CBR was designed to bolt right into the stock location of a bronco.

For the front suspension I decided to go with the Camburg ibeam set up and had custom radius arms built.

Here's the start of it.

CHO, I'm going to show off some of your work before I show off any of Val's work. Our new focus is on getting new suspension on OJ DOS, and he will be coming up whenever you say the word.

The hood is my least favorite part of Baja Oj.
I do not mind the artwork because he's gifted, but the original plan was to do a funny tribute to Oj Simpson and I got the terminator (No big deal), but the artist also painted his company name on it "Suicide Kings", which I was not to hot on. Next stop for Baja Oj is paint.
