i dig the expadition vehicle builds, but i think they are pointless unless you use them as such, thats why i have 2 broncos lol

a crawler that is neglected that has been sitting for months and i tend to only wheel in the fall, and then the go fast rig

but i dig when people do their own work, if u need any help or ideas let me know

fist thing id do is ditch the rear end and sas it :)

heres a link to my old build thread kinda that i had on jsp, stoped posting because people in the MS section suck for the most part, except for like 6-7 people


part #1 http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=50251504&f=140
part #2 http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=59434311&f=140&o=0

Ok, you got my attention. :) I always wanted to do an SAS conversion but that takes extensive research, and I didn't know where to start. If I did though I would definitely go with a Dana 60 front axle, or something similar from an old 4Runner. I think those are king shocks, or foxs.. I can't tell, what lb spring rate are they on the Bronco? I have an 88 bronco that I want to SAS and would love for it to be a project vehicle.

Fell in a hole, the dude behind my truck is 6' 3"


Took off the factory steps, and welded on some rock sliders

A few more pics of the sliders




About 5 hours worth of welding, too bad I'm a terrible painter.

Sold the old UWS toolbox and bought a new one that fits between the wheel wells.


Leaving work one day, about to get on the highway and this happened. Dealer took care of everything for free, we came to the conclusion that someone tried to steal the wheels but couldn't get the lock off so they left it for me to find out.


3 studs sheered off, 2 broken, and the last one held on by the lock just barely..

Not really part of the build thread but ehh.. On my bike on the highway and my phone fell out of my pocket and slid about 1000' until it hit the grass


A few days ago I swapped to these, 255/85 BFG KM2s. Damn good tire, highly recommended.

WE'RE TAKING OVER!



Be prepared for a ginger taco revolution. You will be begging for help once the soul-eating zombies are released.





Nice truck btw, OP. How do you like the OME shocks/springs combo compared to the 5100/ome springs? Also, I'm Mxracer190 on Tacomaworld.
