wishing I would have kept the front shocks on the bronco until new ones came .......The bronco and I need some dirt miles.

Ok I picked up the shock and mocked up temp installed ....4.0 rear need remote the res so 3.0 went back on for now.

ended up with a 3.0 3.5 combo front and will only need to move lower mount out.
rear 3.0 was good 4.0 the res hit a tube...I know about this and forgot to remote the 4.0 from king. I remembered to do this for the front. 4.0 in front might have made me redo upper mount so I said nope.

King did a great job. I gave them shock lengths and they made sure it matched the collapsed length I needed. Since I was not part of the the original build I did my best to make the mounts work and shock cycle better then the previous person that set up the truck did. It cycles correctly now and uses all the bypass on all 4 corners. Once I move the lower front shock mount out further on the beams it will be fantastic and I can find a good spring rate.

So in two 6 hours shifts of shock installing cycling and test fitting Thursday and Friday, we had the bronco ready for Saturday drive to the dirt mission.

day in the dirt 232 miles of road and dirt driving .....oh 3 speed sucks with 5.43 gears on the HWY...lmao

Bedsides off for tube turning

At this location I had one issue. The Bronco would not move/roll forward like I had my foot on the brake, but would go into reverse and roll backwards. I jacked up the front end wheels would spin fine both ways. The hubs for some reason had been put to lock....not me oops. but that did not seem to do anything free or locked. Please note, I have 5.13 front and 5.43 rear as I have not made call on gears selection yet. but it was never in 4x always 2x all day it was super random.

Brennan @goofballracer pulled drive line and off we went to get food in Salton Sea.
