Well the grill is staying and the front fenders are going back on. The rear fenders are to long and to much of a bitch to make work. I made some skins from sheetmetal that match the fender lines, but my height doesn't match up right.

I got some more done, I can almost see the end.

Unfortunatly, I cut out the suspension crossmembers and tried something different for them. I now cut out my 3 link front and am in the process of redoing it as a 4 link. A little set back. Next time I'll cut he frame off from the motor mounts forward or just make my out frame. The ride height will be lower than it was before, but not as low as I though I could go.

Good to hear. Bronco still looks great...but that front link/tranny mount xmember had to go.

Wow the dates on these posts are sad....I think the original post of me tearing it up was 2005.

I've taken it out once and had some issues that were minor. I finaally fix the rim and got a new tire for christmas.:grinpimp: I just need to address the steering arm which I and not sure of yet. Either parts mike's or mad rooster's arms.
