Well I've got alot of work ahead of me, have been collecting parts for a while now. I will be building my 1995 explorer sport 5 speed. I will be swapping in a Dana 60 front( converted to 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern and also possible narrowed use a 79 Dana 60 axle shaft on the passenger side)and a 9" axle rear and will be running 513 gearing. I will be using radius arm set up with 5.5 deaver early bronco coils. I have a 78-79 bronco/f150 steering box which will do the trick to stear 37-39" tire also run hydro assist posibly.
Any ways here are some pics
This is what it looked like right after I put 33 12.5 tires under it stock with a little bit of torsion twist.
I have been in the offroading scene since I was an ankle biter so attempting different obsticals were no fear for me.
In about 8 months I had 4 slave cylinders fail on me due to getting packed full of mud and chewing the seal. Takes me an hour to take the transmission out
1989 king pin Dana 60 and a 1983 bronco 9"
One last picture sitting on the 33s
Back axle gone
Back axle in and a 39" swamper bolted up to get an idea what it should look like
And that's a wrap. More pics to come next weekend when I got some gas for the fire axe to chop the ifs stuff out.
