Extremely sad day for me. Tomorrow I'll be headed to Virginia Beach for 3 years. Unfortunately the bronco won't be going with me, fortunately its stay at it home under close watch by my sister and brother in law. It will be ready to head out for desert trips any chance I have to visit home. Image

Gonna have a few things taken care of while I'm gone. It will be weird having someone else working on it. My wallet isn't used to it either.

The rig is loaded and we are out tomorrow. Image

Having serious bronco with drawls on the east coast. Cant wait to get back in May and take her out.
The bronco is going to a shop while I'm gone, the first work on it that will not be done by myself. Not sure how i feel about it.
Just a couple odds and ends.

Went to the local 4wheel parts store and they said the closest trails are 4-5 hours away.

I decided i am going to start a project I've always wanted to do. As soon as I get the truck ill start the build thread. It will be called "Urban Prerunner Drifto" haha. Basically a 2wd ranger, no lift, 245/75R17, Autofab stock with 3" rise fenders, pulled bedsides, and hydraulic e-brake. The heart of the project is gonna be the motor swap. I am weighing out the pros and cons of 2.3 Turbo or 5.0. I think availability will be the deciding factor. It will be primarily used for getting sideways and gravel/dirt road adrenaline therapy.

2.3 turbo would be sweet though. Light, easy swap and easy power
