Bronco Info: 1985 Ford Ranger


Just ordered..

i just ordered an "Off Road Kit" from 4WP.
and i will be able to comment on everything when i get it.
my computer is a POS and wont let me copy the addy.
but it comes with a 8 foot tree saver, 1 pair of hi lift gloves, a custom nose
attachment, hardware and carrying case. all for $50 to me it seems
like a good price
and all weekend they were having 10% off of everything and free shipping (not handleing)
tomorrow im going to order myself a 48" hi lift :chili went today but they didnt have
it in stock and their warehouse is closed on the weekends.

i dont think there is a 4WP store here in KC. but i am ordering my Hi-Lift from
Orilleys auto parts. its $59.99-it would be cheaper to get it from 4WP if you get it now
but i dont wanna wait for it to get here.

I got mine from 4WP it was a 60" though. Nu_bronco that is what you are gonna need tried the 48" on my truck and it is small for what we use if for.

well i just got my Hi-Lift. i just gotta say its a big SOB. and blackx the 48" works for me.
but i only have 31" tires, the front lifts up easly, the back is another story but that
is because of my rear bumper. it gives way(i need a new one) pics to come soon.

Time to get somewhere better to lift from. You can use chain wrapped around a rear tow hook but it might not be the safest. Sliders or a beefy bumper would be the best.

Buy my stuff, I need it out of my parents storage unit or my tiny apt. I got a tailgate w/glass, tons o tires on rims and boxes of parts.

Bronco Info: broncoless!


after reading this thread it suddenly dawned on me that i don't have a jack in my bronco, and i am wheeling at paragon in 3 weeks...hurried and ordered that all cast 48" hi-lift from 4WP. now i missed the part about how heavy even the cast/stamped ones are, maybe i made a mistake??

Im no hulk and I can lift my 60" up over the tailgate and manuver it over the spare tire. Why does the weight matter to you?
