Well this will be my build page. To start with my name is Justin and am currently living in the Fresno ca. area. This will be my third bronco but first go fast bronco, but not my first go fast build. My last go fast vehicle was a 1990 4runner equipped with a total chaos gen 2 kit, fox coilovers, etc. etc. Well I broke my back in the 4runner after hitting a dune at pismo wrong (long story but I drove it home). After that i started to do some messurements for a cage and good seats but being 6'7 and having a family of 4 there just wasnt any room. So sold it and bought this jewel.
specs.
-1992 with 150k
-302, EAOD
- 4" procomp stage 2 lift
-1 1/2 cage not tied into the frame
-McNeil glass 6" up front 3" out back
-35/12.50 goodyear yellow lable mtr's
-3" front wheel spacers
plans for now.
-5.5 over threat ttb
-14" coilovers
-1 3/4 dom engine cage
-new bumpers
-ford alcoa wheels
-rear deavers
-rear bypasses
-ford 9"
4.88 gears.
-reinforce existing cage.
future plans
-new cage tied into frame
-c6/205 combo
and so on and so on.

Thanks tanner. I was gonna go with agent orange, but being a bronco and orange it goes hand and hand.
