Narrowing My Bronco

[B-RAD]

Mike I dig your avitar & slogan you molester you. did ya get to work on it some more this evening. man all kidding a side I dig what you've done so far and I think it has gone fairly smooth compared to what everybody said about narrowing. I think once we get the windshield Figured out the rest will fall in place nicely. Thank you for letting me molest Mr. Green. Ya Know I've foundled 'ol yeller a time or two. It took me a second to figure out who riffisban is Whats up with that name? but sure I'll cut a 89 runner too. I'm thinking boat tail that one.

 

[mswasey]

Nope, no more work last night. I think you are right, the windshield and dash will be the biggest issues.

yet still better than any jeep or ford, not that jeep and ford are bad its just that toyota is far better

yeah the front suspension just becomes awesome after '86 and birfields are so strong everyone replaces them for fun

i love it when people are talking about preferences and being mature and then someone has to claim fact of one make or model being better than another.

talk about a thread hijack

I am just North of there and on 5800 West. Buy the house, it's a great area.........and there could stand to be a few more wheelers around here!!!

There is a guy With a Huge Black YJ that lives next to door, you probably KNow him.

I THINK A NARROWED BRONCO IS SWEET LOOKING HOWEVER MOST PEOPLE START OUT WITH A PIECE OF JUNK NOT A GEM! SO IF HE CAN PULL IT OFF AWSOME THEN THAT MAKES IT EVEN MORE RARE NICE NARROWED BRONCO!
I AM TALKING BIAS HERE AS WELL BUT I THINK THE GREATEST 4WHEELING PLATFORM WAS THE XJ UNI-BODY IF I WERE TO DO IT AGAIN I FOR SURE WOULD GET ME AN OLD XJ AND MOLEST THE CRAP OUT OF IT

[BronkoRob]

[I Lean]

Looks really good. Are you happy with how it performed, or are there "tweaks" to be made?

 

[Kris K]

Thats awsome.

I've been planning on painting my samurai that same color what color is it. The color i was looking at was a glossey army green.

 

[Milner]

Very cool!!
What di your wheel base end up at?
How do you like the shocks?

 

[mswasey]

I'm pretty happy, I want to play with the sway bar a little just to see how it will effect performance. I lightened the valving on the front 2.5's, also added oil to the rear 2" shox to stiffen the bottoming effect. Seems to be pretty balanced now. Thanks for all your help!!
