if you don't mind removing the IBP until tune of shock is good you can make them work pretty good. It just not a tube turn..... it a take off and apart thing. I am sure King could get it close, but fine tuning on his set up??? I bet the front would not keep up with the rear even with IBP working good. The front TTB is the limiting factor already so adding the big bypass will completely change the ride and handling.

My guess is it is a lot of clicking tho.....hah

Hey Willie. When I was debating whether to find a regular c/o I talked to Bret who talked to Roy and he loves the IBP said keep it on and he will dial them in. I had both the IBP and front bypass valved for the bronco so I’m hoping they are in the ballpark, it’s good enough to at least drive for now but goal will be to have many tuning sessions by next season.

Roy is one of the best.... I will come play when you do it.

It was a good choice, nothing wrong with keeping it and starting with it to see if it fit your needs.

you have one of the best shock packages you cane get. Very little tuning will be needed, just small adjustments to your driving style.

Getting ready for some last second prep for jump champs. Like always I had months to get ready and waited until the week of. I took a big hit in a rain rut 3 months and about 600 miles ago, checked the beam and front end over quickly and everything seemed ok, the wheel was off 1/4 turn so I knew something wasn't happy but it tracked straight and we kept going. After that I did a run from Martinez to Parker and back and everything was fine. Finally got it all torn apart to put some Hollander knuckles on it and figured out what I damaged in that hit. Nice little bend in the driver side radius arm. It was almost leaning on the driveshaft.

Like always VikDok stepped up and made space and time for the bronco. While its there he is putting a rear bumper on it. I haven't decided if I want it plated with some nice dimple dies in it or what, so it will go in for now and then when I figure out what front bumper is going to be I will finish off the back.

Some steel-it on the bumper, install, fuel gauge hookup and then we will be loaded up for jump champs. Hope to see a-lot of you guys out there.

Jump champs was an awesome time. Bronco ran great, got to meet a bunch of great guys off the site in person which was cool. Definitely going to be a regular thing for me. I don’t think the bronco is ever going to be the same after this, so much mud in places I’ll never be able to clean but it was worth it. I got a bunch of cool pictures and videos sent to me.

Pictures from JT Media, Matt Rodriguez of MVTT Cult and I think Travis Almazan. All super cool guys plus others out taking pics and supporting jump champs.

Not only did Jason get me fired up from the ride, he talked me into taking an LS3 off his hands and putting it in the bronco. Motor swap starts this weekend. Going with the 525 LS3, T400, and new np205. I was very against the LS swap but this deal was too good to pass up. More updates to come soon.

Next major piece of the puzzle is ready. I’m super stoked on this NP205 that Tod Gordon from T’s cases made up for me. I have heard his NP 205s are bullet proof so I am very excited to get his behind the T400.

Thanks. I can’t wait to get it in. I’ll post Tod’s number here. He was very easy to deal with and cranked the case out in 2-3 days from the time I ordered.
