Pony's major budget build

[Pony]

Pictures as promised :d

Beliner in truck where feet go


Chevy lowering shackles


new thermostat





F150 springs pretty soon.

What shocks should i get for my setup?

 

[Pony]

would 78 bronco coils fit into my 92 ford ranger? i found a good deal on some

 

[RangerSVT]

Yes, but some mods to the coil bucket will be needed..

SVT

 

[Pony]

Kinda like the f150 mods? Or different like new buckets?

 

[RangerSVT]

Either will work. But the lower mounts will need additional mods. The f150 coils are designed for 4wds, but they can work for 2wds...

[Pony]

But the coils are from a regular 1978 bronco not a bronco II

 

[armadillon]

truck isn't 4x4 D:

That isn't stopping me on my build.

Exactly, just swap out the 2wd trans for a 4wd trans and Tcase...

Yup.

ahhh, not sure will think about it, i was trying to take the bed...blah blah blah [/QUOTE]

Quit thinking. Do it. Your life will flourish with happiness.

instead of chevy leafs i might get trailing arms and start building it into a prerunner

Stop. Screw that prerunner garbage. You aren't a desert racer. 4x4 is more useful.

But the coils are from a regular 1978 bronco not a bronco II

I'm not sure where that comment came from, maybe I missed something. You still need to mod'em. You can do a search on here and see the coil difference. If you look at the D44 SAS swap in the Tech Library you can see how the top of the stock coilbucket is modded for a larger spring. Other builds will show you the lower coil mount.

Now you may proceed.

Brink88 just installed a set of fw coils on a TTB. Same process can be used for tib...
