I know you wont be sorry getting those! Also, dont tighten down as far as they will go, just snug enough to get the cotter pin in. It's still tight enough. Right now, I'm barely hitting the straight edges from the inner fender wells. I'm just gonna hammer them over or flat. So far, it's sweet! I feel way better off camber(ditches) with the FW's. Thanks,Chuck

heres some more pics. I fixed the brakes, the new MC was not working...so I used my old F250 MC I was using for the manual chevy disc conversion I used to run on the EB axle. I set the tow in on the front.Found 2 burned plug wires. adjusted the clutch, releveled the gas tank(was angled down). I tightened the hose from the PS cooler. She is good to go now. All that's left is the inserts and soft doors!!

I think you and I started about the same time. Yours looks like a trail killer bad A machine. Might take a while , but I'll get there.

I just took it for a ride to the store Confusedhock: Wow this is not the same bronco I drove to URE and Charlotte meet/greet. This thing it a bit to handle. I'm not sure why it wonders around side to side...slop in the steering :roll: . I dont think WCB gave me my original box back! Mine was tight...I know tapping it for hydro wouldn't cause this!!

I will ask them about it before I try to adjust the box,Chuck

my box was only 1yr old, I shipped it to them with the pump(for checking) so they could port my box...no core, just flat rate on porting.

Great looking truck dude!

I got a feeling I'm gonna get to watch some really nice crawlers perform with this group.

I was able to take the bronco out to the pits today...sorry no pics/videos Cry I love my bronco even more now!!!!! This thing just would not stop. It climbed everything I pointed it at. My only downfall...Holley TA(it wont run straight up) :lol:

I was really worried about going today. Last night the GDI gang was hanging out, so for entertainment...we hooked the front of the bronco to the front of Shawn's yota. I only had 3 wheels(1 bad ford hub-not engaging)....well, neither of us moved...but Shawn stripped about 6-7 teeth off the front ring gear Confusedhock: That really sucked, he rode with me today. He's home right now swapping in a 3rd for URE. Men and their stupid ideas :roll: Chuck
