Nice!!..Who did the fab work?..Ya , i know that area. Use go right bye there on the way over to Havanna house..Lol..

Ha, the first picture I saw and I recognized this Bronco. I saw it at SMP last week. Looks really good. Steven does awesome top notch work. He's built a few magazine cover trucks and they all looked bad ass.

[Agui-E7TE]

It's pretty funny how I also have a green 89 with a 92-96 front clip and I'm also going to have my bumpers built at SMP.

[323bronco]

The TTB'S true twin broncos yeah he does some real nice work.

[Agui-E7TE]

Here's what my Bronco looked like when my fenders were black for a day. The other picture is what it looks like now.

[Agui-E7TE]

Twins except for the fact that mine's had a hard life with some slight physical abuse. I will bring it back and make it look better like Johnny Cash said, "One Piece at a Time"

[323bronco]

Looks good i like it, what suspension do u have up front ? I might rattle can my front clip this weekend want it matte black and take off the f250 badges.

[Agui-E7TE]

6-inch Skyjacker front suspension with the beefy Skyjacker beam-drop brackets. The shocks are Bilstein 5150s. The rear is Deaver F53s with a 3.5 inch angled block. I'm going to switch over to 5.5-inch Deaver J40s in the rear and replace all the ball joints on my front end and hopefully it will run much better after that.

My front suspension is the same one that was on Off-Road magazine's project Bronco. It performed really nice so for now I'm going to keep it and build my '79 Bronco to Go Fast!

Here's a link to a video of the Skyjacker kit in action before it was on my truck..

Take your time removing all the old adhesive on the badges (I didn't because the whole thing will eventually get painted) and if you're rattle canning it, buy at least two cans of spray paint for each side (4 cans of Primer, 4 cans of spray paint and 4 cans of clear gloss to protect against scratches) and three of each for the hood. I've had really awesome results like this but in all honesty, you're Bronco is nice enough where it would probably be better to have Maaco paint the front end for you... I bet it wouldn't cost as much as you think and the end result would be really clean looking (far better than my rattle can job at least).

Here's a pic of the front bumper done. went out to glamis for the weekend rear is way to soft let me know when your ready to sell those f53's . Thanks for the tips on the rattle can havnt done it yet.

[D1cker1]

Bumpers look great

Im diggin that light bar..

How much lift is on the front?

[323bronco]

Thanks guys. Its a 4inch lift superlift

[323bronco]

Had just enough time to spray and clean up the front end before taking off to glamis.

[CITYRAT]

The bumper/lightrack came out real clean!..How did she do in Glamis?.. Ive yet to get mine out there.

[323bronco]

It did really good we drove down there and all weekend in the sand aired down to 12lbs in rear and 15 up front never needed 4wd drove it all the way home with no problems had such a great time didnt even take the time for any action shots.

[Pre Run It]

That front bumper and light bar came out great. I like the idea of being able to remove the light bar.
