My Bronco 2

[4.0B2]

that's why i tapered mine like i did... for approach. mine is great for me. i like it.
anyways. i have like 4 posts here. so be sure to look thru all my unanswered stuff and any input is great lol

edit:
rear bumper design i kinda like. but i wanna make sure it curves around like the stock bumper and front bumper does. but i kinda wanna use something simple like this

 

[disciplerocks]

That would go really well with your front

Hey, I've been reading up on your thread the past few days... I read the whole 37 pages lol! I think your project is awesome, sorta similar to mine, except i got a ranger... I kinda want to make a build thread after reading yours lol. And I'll buy your front lift off of you. How much do you think shipping to West Palm Beach, Fl would be? Are the brackets and springs heavy?

 

[dangerranger83]

Thats the same rear bumper Im planning on making.

i think i got a guy in line for the front part of my lift.. idk if he's still gonna want it tho. but i'll for sure sale it.. idk about shipping. i'll try to get a quote tho. AND OF COURSE START A BUILD THREAD... EVEN IF ITS SIMPLE. hell i started one on the 2wd explorer that we are about to clean up and paint and do some work on.

and i like the simple rear bumper, same shape and style of the front... seems like the best bet.

oh.. and i got the axle shaft i needed to finish my 8.8 build. time to get it together and get it in!!!!!

And if you don't sell it to the person you planned to, let me know... As long as shipping isn't too much lol. If it's too much, maybe I'll just drive up there and get it lol

And that front bumper is the exact one I had in my head that I wanted to make... I've just been looking for a picture to show to my dad because I suck at drawing, and now I have one for reference! Thanks!

Yea that dog is so cool! I'm not allowed to have a dog cuz I still live with my dad..
Whenever I want a dog I have to go to my brothers house lol, he has 2 german shepherds.

see told you He would be my Bronco Dog!

 

[kroussinoffroad]

dont let him get used to riding near or on your lap. i used to do that with my dog and now that he's a little bigger he still thinks hes aloud to do that. (and mine's only 25 lbs full grown)

 

[dangerranger83]

My truck driving a total of 60miles of highway driving yesturday got 20mpg....wish it would do that in town, and that was running 65mph and at 2800-2900rpm. I will say that it was scarry driving her on the highway for the first (and problably the lastime) seeing as it was raining and sways easier at those speeds, I need to get sway bar mpounts on the front axle somehow.

 

[88fordRanger]

You have cheap gas! I just paid $3.73 yesterday! But it's better than being over $4.00 like it was a month ago... The highest was like $4.27 or something.

I just wish it went back down under $3.00 lol...

I usually get about 16mpg no matter what I do... It doesn't matter if i drive in town, on the highway, or drive fast or slow, its always 16 lol.

our gas is going down as of like 2 weeks ago. it was 3.85 or so at the peak i think. our gas is usually some of the lowest in the USA. but salaries and all are lower to. We mississippians are broke or something. i don't pay to much attention to it. i gotta buy gas so..... i just buy it.

I just relized I've never checked out your build thread. Looks like I got some catching up to do. How un-american of me to not check out the red, white and blue B2.
