Slap on some Autofab rear quarters and you won't have to worry about that banged up rear section.shockseals.com wrote:other than the rear quarter from a tire blowout its pretty dam clean and straight. Tons of service work done on it before it was put in the garage 4 years ago too.

Day 1
4 hours put in tonight...all suspension stripped other than coil buckets. Front and rear diffs were sent out for 4.56s, detroit in rear. Should go together nicely this weekend. Quite a few areas to prep for weldwashers and misc. welding but going to be a fun project.
Thanks to the guys at Crossroads Fabrication (http://www.crossroadsfabrication.com/) for lending the shop and a few hands. I figure with their track record of no losses and no prep related failures in 3700 and class 3, having them lending a hand with the prep should make this thing solid as a rock.

Day 2 went off well other than a broken Snap On Torque wrench that stripped out a bolt and kids dont like air chisels.

Re: Kritter's 96 Bronco
That's some good progress! Coil-buckets with only a rear mounted shock are soooo much easier to install on EFI trucks... good choice!
I wonder if the coil-buckets Brian and I just picked up are foreman-built? They look almost identical.

Re: Kritter's 96 Bronco
Brian and I bought ours off some guy at the swap meet. Kris bought his used. Autofab is the only shop I know of that currently builds and sells them.
