New captain chairs. dhath 03-03-2003, 03:53 PM I am thinking about the Axle Flip..... Still looking into it though ESC 03-03-2003, 03:54 PM Shackle flip in rear to remove blocks and add-a-leaf, wristed radius arm, coilovers. After that: new intake, 4 bbl carb, cam, and duals, custom bumpers, cage, NP435 swap, etc....and so-on and so-on :cool: It never ends!! RoundLights 03-03-2003, 06:49 PM Install the susp and body lifts I have when my poly bushings get here. Detroit rear hughes tranny powerlock front. In that order; should take less than 3 months Canadian Bronco 03-03-2003, 07:04 PM lift more and get new tires(my 35s are gettin worn) :???: jopes 03-03-2003, 07:34 PM 14 bolt rear end, shaved, and 1350 CV drive shaft in the rear. 8 lug outters up front. New Body. funsctional bumpers. winch soft top. less sheet metal shackle flip in the rear EB coils up front. More sheep. origin 03-03-2003, 08:11 PM lol @ jopes, yeah sure jopes, like you need more sheep :) anyhow MORE POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D I think more power comes as a given for anyone here, but I hope to be pulling my Engine and Transmission the spring/summer, and going through both, The engine will get a '79 block, (70,000 kms) w/ an RV cam, and all bearing specs gone through carefully, '88 Heads and Intake (for the EFI of course) with the Intake polished lightly, and the Exhaust ported out for better flow, gonna add some bigger injectors (prob some 30# injectors), and I hope this combination will net me about 3-350 hp (which is all I need right now), as for the Transmission, the one inside the Bronco is almost shot, I almost blew her up trying to get unstuck from a mud hole, but never fear, I have a 460 trans sitting in the garage (2wd) what will be converted to fit the Transfer case, along with it being rebuilt, there will be a stage 2 shift kit installed. ZOSO 03-03-2003, 11:08 PM Aluminum headed roller 460 :D :D (mine has burned valves and piston rings :???: ) then bumpers and of course wheel it vabchbronco 03-04-2003, 12:35 AM 4.56 gears and spool for the front dana 44 and roll cage Davids78Bronco 03-04-2003, 01:13 AM shackle flip in the rear Weren't you dogging the shackle flip earlier? about how the shackle is hanging too low and would get caught on the rocks? jopes 03-04-2003, 01:16 AM yes, I still hate it. but I am not moving the springs down any lower than the hanger is right now. in order to get the 4" of lift I needed before I was going to need a 8" shackle. thats alot of shackle hanging back there, Plus I am welding in a 1" block. I am only looking for a gentle lift. ~ 1.5 inches with the shackle. PS plus I am getting hydro assist steering. Jon0807 03-04-2003, 08:40 AM I'm hopefully gonna be gettin performance unlimited's bulletproof steering and trac bar system some time soon offroad_joe 03-04-2003, 10:40 PM D60 front axle (I've had it a year still not installed.) ARB or E-Locker for front d60. Probably an ARB in the 14 bolt also. Coil-overs front. Deaver rear springs and new shocks. Paint job. (cheap one) jopes 03-04-2003, 11:14 PM D60 front axle (I've had it a year still not installed.) ARB or E-Locker for front d60. Probably an ARB in the 14 bolt also. Coil-overs front. Deaver rear springs and new shocks. Paint job. (cheap one) since when did they make a ARB for the 14 bolt? Jon0807 03-04-2003, 11:30 PM http://www.4wheelparts.com/product2.asp?imseqn=227&occlass=ARB&cat=DRI ARBRD40 GM 14-bolt 9.50"- all ratios is that the same 14 bolt you guys are gonna use? 9.50? http://www.superford.org/registry/vehicles/users/1953/1193/arbgm.gif jopes 03-04-2003, 11:59 PM no Joe has the 14 bolt full floater, thats the same one I am going to be putting it. And for what reason do you want to do away with your detroit you have now? Jon0807 03-05-2003, 12:36 AM no Joe has the 14 bolt full floater, thats the same one I am going to be putting it. And for what reason do you want to do away with your detroit you have now? Ahhh full float :cheers: Sodbuster 03-05-2003, 10:29 PM New interior, re-gear to 4-11 or 4-56, maybe a locker, and just wax the damn thing. offroad_joe 03-06-2003, 12:37 AM Damn I just assumed they made one. I never bothered checking figured if I go with one in the front mayas well do the back. I don't have a detroit in there Jopes it's the stock l/s. It works good but there are times I just want open diffs. I do trails also and there are times you don't want the dif. locked. I am bummed now I wonder if they will make an e-locker anytime soon? jopes 03-06-2003, 01:37 AM most likely not. Just be a real man and put in a detroit. :D offroad_joe 03-06-2003, 11:21 PM I may just have too. Canadian Bronco 03-07-2003, 02:16 AM well im gonna need some tires by this summer(rears for sure) but i also may upgrade to a 1 ton chebby if i can find one that i'd be happy with :twisted: EvilBronc 03-07-2003, 05:26 AM SAS, 4:88 gears, and currently shopping for a 351 with wireing harness to build up 81Bronk36 03-07-2003, 10:08 AM Buy a 78-79.
