Absolutely love the cage structure in the rear. Very well thought out and no dead tubes. Safe ride for the third seat. The tin work is fantastic too. You guys are making quick progress!

Re: 1994 Bronco for General Tire Media
Yes this will be a very well built cage. With Jonny's and Cho's experience they have taken the Bronco to a whole new level. It will be a very safe cage if it is ever used or needed. Richer Racing is killing it.yikes wrote:Absolutely love the cage structure in the rear. Very well thought out and no dead tubes. Safe ride for the third seat. The tin work is fantastic too.

Pop the TB off the manifold and check the port match. Mine was pretty far undersized.hollandermotorsports wrote:

Cut out the Cab cage? You are killing me Travis. lol. The Richer racing team has tied everything in so well that we will keep the og cage that is left. Its not tucked as tight as I would like it but we couldn't justify cutting it out.Travisfab wrote:Time to cut out the cab cage!

As most of you know Bronco's do not have a ton of room for cooler mounts. So we decided to mount the coolers below the hood. We will do something cool to the hood so it will flow air through through the coolers.

Re: 1994 Bronco for General Tire Media
The coolers look awesome! Some Raptor louvers or vents on the hood in that area are going to set it off. Awesome work on this rig!
Any plans for paint?

Re: 1994 Bronco for General Tire Media
Due to our time crunch it will probably get wrapped by my friends at Triton imaging a satin color scheme more than likely. But it will be awesome. I'm debating the interior currently. I want this thing as quite as possible but I know I will run out of time. Its a good thing on got the intercom with the DSP option from PCI. lol

Re: 1994 Bronco for General Tire Media
I hope you plan on some type of shroud or guard below the dual coolers. It would be a shame to have a kicked up rock put you dnf.

Really nice work on this and I too am impressed with the diligence Richter is exercising here. I'm watching and may have to let these gents have a crack at one of my upcoming phases. Agreed.....a single 3" IBP is the only way to go in the front.
Good job!
Uhhhh. What?
Why would someone want to link a Bronco?
To get away from terrible geometry of an arched spring for one, axle wrap, drive line issues not to mention they track straighter in big holes. Oh, and the ability to pull more than 17-18" of travel......
3" IBP the only way to go in the front? Far from it. 3" IBP is only a 2.5" piston and a pretty meaty inner sleeve that is taking up a lot of room that oil should be filling. Not to mention that it is not adjustable on the fly. Being a single shock doing all the work, it gets much hotter as in comparison to a coil / bypass setup, and more prone to fade this way.

Joe and I have been talking he is confident that we can dial the 3.0" coil over in so no need for bypass or IBP. The 3.0" IBP I was referring to possibly doing was a 3.5" O.D. that fox has not released yet. But I totally agree with you Louis.

Re: 1994 Bronco for General Tire Media
When I got home last night I had some goodies from WARN. This winch is awesome. Remote controlled and a relocatable brain box on top so I can tuck the winch up high out of the way. We plan on mounting between frame rails under the radiator.

Re: 1994 Bronco for General Tire Media
All the plate work in the rear reminds me of my blazer build. The only difference is we also raised the floor 6".
