Back from the dead. After getting screwed over from someone I thought was a friend and my dad moving in fit the summer, I didn't get anything done on the bronco. His stuff was more important. Now that he's gone the bronco is getting some much deserved attention. Work has been extremely slow cause I only have use of my right hand. ( had surgery on my left wrist) But I did manage to get my headers installed with one hand, took two days but they are installed.

Thanks to my awesome wife buying me all my steel braided lines and fittings for my brakes, my bronco is one step closer to being on the road. All the brake plumbing is done new pads and calipers, wheel bearings installed. Only thing left us to bleed the system.

Getting some little stuff finished up. Two of the three seats mounted are mounted. I still have some welding to finish up on engine cage. The next big project will be the fiberglass dash.Image

So after staring at the factory dash and fiberglass dash for a while today, I think I'm going to stick with the factory one.

Little update, dash is in, ZF is out. Since I decided to go back to the e4od I had to remove the MAF conversion kit I had on it. Luckily for me the truck I got the trans out of was a MAF truck so I pulled the intake hoses, sensor and computer. Then the fun part of re-pinning the 60 pin connector, running new injector and MAF wires. Took a few hours but wasn't as bad as I thought. Today I ordered my punisher VB and winters shifter.ImageImage

E4OD is in, and she runs. Been over two years since I last started it, hit the key and she came to life. Next on the list is the installation of the punisher and the winters shifter.

Well after about 3.5 years, a lot of money, a very understanding wife, and three wrist surgeries that have rendered my left hand pretty much useless she's back on the road. Still have some sms stuff to finish up but she's drivable. Image

Nice upgrades, what trans ? you should keep that two-tone paint.

Currently a stock e4od with a punisher valve body. Im still debating on paint. I'm just not sure about the two tone with the flare on the front fenders.

Well just picked up a 95 Bronco for my son. Wasn't really looking but couldn't pass the deal. It's got a 4" lift, solid axle swap, 9" lockers front and rear 35's. Just turned 122000. It needs some work, mostly interior but is drivable. Best of all, got it for $1200Image

It runs and rides pretty good. Steering is a little loose, but that easily fixed. He's super excited. I had to snap this picture today. Image
