The list is as follows;
Alignment
Steering wheel
Sag pump and brackets
Wilwood rear disc brake residuals
2.5" spring plates
Fluids
Also asked to get a quote on coming from the cage into the engine cage. I want to get that done within the next year. Super excited. Night race and Baja next on the agenda!!
SAG pump is an excellent upgrade guys, highly recommend it! Really pleased with that.

Re: Tonys 93 bronco
Nice upgrades! It looks like someone did a nice job on those cables. I like!
I always wanted to buy a nice Y-pipe sans converters for my Bronco. You'll have to let us know how it works.

Re: Tonys 93 bronco
Thanks Steve. Jonny Lightning did the cables. It's his specialty actually, wiring cars and stuff. Really nice work on the cables. In the pic you see a few spare sets. We had him build all of them at the same time
The y pipe exceeded my exoectations when I opened it up. Clean welds, Really good looking. Its Also has a cat, although its a small one.

Re: Tonys 93 bronco
[quote="tcm glx"]Big boy battery cables, bassani y pipe and square projectors. Check!
Very nice, Tony. I am actually looking to get one of those Bassani Y pipes. I was leaning towards the off road pipe, due to that Bassani cat not being CARB certified anyway. Do you know if the cat-less version is the same length as the system with the cat? Also, any reason you went with the cat version, and where did you get yours?

Re: Tonys 93 bronco
I got it through auto anything. They are supposed to be the same length. I picked the cat so that at least visually there is something there. It's pretty small though as you can see in the pictures.

Re: Tonys 93 bronco
Me too Ryan. Definitely adding a muffler. Hoping it sounds good. Fingers crossed. No sweat in the picture. Whenever you get a minut. Are you running a muffler?RyanDS650X wrote:Im curious to see if you develop a drone... will yiu be running a muffler or just strait pipe?

Re: Tonys 93 bronco
Ryan - Have any sound clips? I am trying to figure out what to do. I want it to sound good, yet be able to drive in it for hours at a time without going nuts.RyanDS650X wrote:Yes 24" magnaflow and 3" mandrel bent pipe all the way out in stock location.
Tony - I think I am going to get the off road, then add ball clamp connectors to add cats/muffler and save the pipe I cut out, so I can swap it in and out. My rear cat is somewhere on the Mojave Road and I want to avoid having that happen again. Plus, they get really hot. The last thing I want is to be driving through some bushes out in the middle of nowhere and start a forest fire. What muffler are you going with?

Ryan's truck is one of the best sounding rigs that I have personally heard on GFB. Truck sounds mean, yet not loud....he has some more work done to it though.
I hear you on the cats stuff. You will save yourself 100 bucks by skipping the cat.

Re: Tonys 93 bronco
Nice. Post up after you install yours. I know I have to have another o2 bung welded in (CA 95 351) and I have heard that the air tube hookup can be a PITA. Not sure on that though.\
Ryan - Which series Magnaflow muffler you running?

Re: Tonys 93 bronco
Won't it fail the visual smog test with the small cat? It probably doesn't have the carb numbers stamped on it, right?

Re: Tonys 93 bronco
I was running the same y pipe minus the cat on my bronco and now on my F150. There is no noticeable drone. It will make the exhaust a whole lot louder. I had a 40 series flowmaster on the bronco and it was stupid loud. Having the little cat on there will probably make it little quieter. Made a huge improvement on top end feel.
