So here are some ideas...
1.just install the axles/tires and run that?
2.drop the body lift, install the front axle w/cage arms,4 link the rear and build a custom cage for safety...run that?
3.yank the body,build a tube chassis w/ part of the frame, and hang sheet metal to look like a bronco?
I vote for a combo. I say go with option #1 and Option #3. Go ahead an wheel what you got with new axles and take that frame sitting out back and start on Option #3 in the garage. You can take your time working out all the kinks and collecting parts while you're still beating Big Red. When you're ready you can swap over the drivetrain from the red one with a Big wrenching weekend party.....
