I will add something about the tin work. It helps that Mike was so detail oriented during his build that the panel on one side pretty much fit the other with minor trimming once flipped..... I was impressed all those little triangle areas were so close to each other from side to side.

Signs of a well built truck.

When you can't use the template for one side on the other it makes me nervous about how square the rest of the build may be & how much dog tracking/walking the thing will do in the dirt.

Yes. I am doing a jig for the ttb housings and radious arms like Glen from Complete Fabrication has made for Chris Wilson's race Bronco. Glen tig welded my uniball cups on my housings. Also if I ever bend or break a housing I can make a replacement.

I love the fact that you didn't update the glass. This is one sexy Bronco! How long are the lower links on this thing?

First things first...

I put 5:13 gear sets in to replace the 4:88's.
Those gears are awesome. Just really wakes the old bronco up and makes her "peppy"

Here is a video with bronco in first gear jumping something that shouldn't be jumped.

If memory serves me right they are 54.5"

After hitting that jump, now I want to be a professional monster truck driver. Screw dezert racing.

Looks like its soaking up the whoops really well. How's it feel inside? More tuning to do or just right? I wasn't seeing bobble heads.

Thanks. Ya I'm gonna tune on the front shocks first and see where it gets me. It feels good inside although the front is a lil skatey thru big holes and "high speed"

I've realized I like jumping it. Lol
