4WPRusty,

I would love to. BajaLuv (Aaron) is always down. ( I actually have a list of guys on here that are always down)

I think CSDrums is back up and running as well and needs some test miles.

I was going to do a shock tuning trip here soon and invite people to come out. Basically drive find a sport and tune, spend sometime in a one sport then find different spot test and tune again. following the rules of 6 feet and no large groups ....basically so rangers don't get upset

after the first go with changes and clean up. I have been able to put 223 dirt miles and 165 street miles on the bronco.

I have been able to have some great people help me start the fine tuning of the bronco that has great bones. It has a ton of up side. The biggest thing that was great to see was the truck had been set up originally with tons of up travel. I think it was to keep the low stuffed look of a race truck. You guys would have been so surprise how low it was sitting when I picked it up. In the first teardown we raised it up and it still needs more rear height.


I have had been able to put 210 dirt miles and 165 street miles on the bronco.

next finishing list is now
bring rear ride height up 5-6 inches
change springs in rear
change out power steering lines
move the ram pivot point on frame down
new BD lights
New headlights
add USB ports
new rear bumper
Carpet
cup holders
This bronco will get dual 110 radio set up on a switch
I also need to figure out a way to not over flow fuel cell when pumping gas.....haha
Paint one shade of anything as the rap is about off

slow pay list
seats, I added a pair of plus two we had. but we will see


more to the list soon. This should be a good start.

The Bronco is at @prerunnerfarm for an updated on my check list. I don't want the truck down long. I have parts order and will make some small changes and adjustments to make the truck work better.

HDS9. I have a gen 3 HDS7 and love it. There is a guy who is working on being able to overlay Google map images into the lowrance. The higher resolution of the Gen3 makes it awesome.

working on the power steering and the T/C pump. I will have some new lines here soon and I plan on moving the ram lower on the frame to improve the steering.
