haha, the whole cage maybe took 6 days but the tubs took a couple months. the bronco is actually seafoam green. im actually gonna keep it this color cause i like it and think its unique. i nick named the bronco "minty fresh" lol.

anyways here are a couple more pics with the bedsides mounted. need to still buy those trick fender washers. im planning on rebuilding the rear bumper and adding a stock/modified tire gate back on.

You just can't have enough "minty freshness" around... love the color! Keep it and don't consider any other! :lol: The Bronco looks really great! Can't wait to see it in person.

ok so ive got quite a few updates on minty. i was having an issue with the water temp gauge going up and down between N and L on hills. I installed a autometer water temp gauge and it would get up to just over 210 degrees on the 241 toll road. i thought this was too hot so i installed a new thermostat, radiator, waterpump and hoses. now it seems to run between 195 and 205.

my tires were going bald and i couldnt find a deal on any AT tires that were used so i purchased 4 brand new falken wildpeak ATs from americas tire. im super happy with how they perform and most of all they are nice and quiet compared to my MTRs.

Thanks to my friend logan, he finished up all the interior headliner and installed as much factory plastics as possible to give it that clean look. i bought an IPAD 3 im going to use as GPS once we get around to building a center console.

Finally, i took her out to the memorial run this past weekend. its the first time its been in the desert in almost a year. it ran great all weekend with the windows up and AC on. Now i just have some fine tuning to do and she is ready for desert season.

Agreed, interior looks really good. I forgot the ranger sold. Edgeracer (Chris) told me about it but i haven't even lurked the classifieds on DR the last couple weeks. I liked that truck a lot. Hope you guys did good on the ranger.

Oh yeah, my buddy that bought your guys' other Bronco, awhile after i bought your SAWs, F53's and coil kits, when we met up in Norco, he did a lot of work to it and it's running really good. He just put new BFGs on it and brought it to his river pad. He's stoked.

I dig that color. Not very common. Are you going to be painting the glass to match the oem paint? Nice Bronco by the way.
