Re: Michael's 96 Sleeper
Thanks Tony! Brakes came in Monday evening and are now installed.
For all intensive purposes, the suspension+ build is complete. Mark is driving it around and flushing out any gremlins he can, should be ready for TDS this coming weekend.

Re: Michael's 96 Sleeper
I'll let Mark field that question. We've run into various challenges with sourcing hydroboost as well as the Wilwood disc brake kit...[HBW]22 wrote:Nice build! what did that hydro boost come off of? and where did you get it? thanks
Re: Michael's 96 Sleeper

It may be the picture angle, but the rear looks a little higher than
The front.
Love the look with the rear tire removed

Rear bumper installed but finishing with the lights is on hold for a few weeks. They will be fitted into the bumper right before it heads to get powder coated.philofab wrote:Beautiful Bronco.

Re: Michael's 96 Sleeper
Yes, the wedding is quickly approaching. I picked the Bronco up from Mark this weekend at the TDS event near the Sultan Sea. We had a blast! Lots of fun and it really came out well. I will need get some pics of the under carriage, Mark built a pretty snazzy skid that covers alot. Here are some poser pics near the event location...

Lovin this truck! Ultimate sleeper, kudos to you and Mark for your plan.
How are you liking the Coopers? Have you had a chance to formulate a review/opinion on the d2s's performance wise?
And congratulations on the upcoming nuptuals.

Re: Michael's 96 Sleeper
Thanks for the compliment! So far, really like the Coopers. I was going back and forth between the Coopers and Mickey MTZ's but I'm happy with what I have. I tried out the D2's briefly on Saturday night and they were awesome... super bright. I'll have to take pics with just headlights and with the D2's added. I should get a chance this weekend to take some pics of the lights.robertcrav wrote:Lovin this truck! Ultimate sleeper, kudos to you and Mark for your plan.
