Thanks bro. This will be huge in ensuring she is ready to drive to NC in April after EVERYTHING that has been done since November. Keep in mind she has bigger tires, crappy brakes, weighs more than yours, has no side mirrors, and has huge blind spots; be extra vigilant.

Nice of you to do chuzie a 'favor' by driving his truck for him. I'd even volunteer for that one. So was the trip to work on road or off???

I think we forgot to jack up the front end and purge the air from steering system after engine install. Whoops!
Glad it went well. My rig is a major chick magnet..... so is my Bronco!
Thanks man. I really appreciate it.

Eh, I gave it my best chuck.
If he fixes the PS, you might not get it back Chuzie. I'm jealous. Glad it all came together.

actually the bronco did awesome...lots of power, and the ride it self is pretty dang good! takes the bumps in the road way better than my rear leafs. i felt no body roll at all, those shocks are doing a great job.
