Four Door Magnum Bronco has gone from a eight seater to a one seater in a little over a month.

Not to mention a ton of extra interior pieces from multiple broncos:

Gotta carry the cooler, tools, spares, I need the room.... just kidding silverslk. It's going to be a four seater but I had to remove the carpet and the carpet glue. I gave the original seats away to a friend and will be ordering Twisted Stitches' TS-1 seats (four of them) soon. It will be a one seater temporarily. It's definitely going to look funny driving around like that.

I really like that crew cab Philofab. How is the back spacing on those hummer wheels? At least that's what they appear to be. What size are those Toyos? Post some more pics of your truck I really dig it.

Yeah it does. Strangest thing. Not sure why it came that way. Not sure if I'm going to run power to the rear ones but it would be nice to have them all powered windows. Does your crew cab have powered rear windows? If so, can you post some pics of your door panels?

Thanks Philofab. I may end up retro fitting the rear door windows with the power windows of a 92-96 crew cab.

By the way, everyone lets vote for our own TCM GLX aka Tony for Fullsize Bronco of the Month:

Does the driver door control all four windows? Can you post a pic of the switches?

Yes please create a build thread. I'd love to see it.

Does anyone need some couch material for their home?

And lots of panels that won't be used:

So on my way to Pick Your Part to look for a 92-96 front end for the four door Bronco I drove past this bad @$$ rat rod. Is this the new bat mobile?

 

[BajaBronco13]

I did find a full set of Ford Bronco OEM wheels but they had the rivet style not the completely smooth OEM wheel. I passed on them but my buddy has pulled some smooth OEM Aluminum wheels from that Pick Your Part yard. I just picked up a 96 chrome grille and some interior panels.

I hope you guys had a good 4th. I lite off a few fireworks and enjoyed some bacon wrapped hot dogs baja style.

 

[BajaBronco13]

Come on Nick, you know those dogs look tasty. Damn the long travel stuff I've been looking at is going to drive me broke. Even the cheap stuff isn't that cheap.

So I pulled out an extra set of 35s I had in the garage to put them up against the four door. Should I go with 35s or bump up to 37s? The game plan is four inch wider beams per side with coilovers.

Here is a pic up against my 285/75/16 BFGs:

If I decide to run 37s I have a set of six Hummer wheels I'll be using:

 

[BajaBronco13]

Good old Ford engineers must have know people would bend and extend these beams:

 

[BajaBronco13]

You're right Philo on the beams. I maybe sourcing out a set of Econoline beams to extend.

I remember you telling me about jumping up to 37s plus I'm running a 460 gas engine which I'm sure is going to eat up gas like crazy.

What is your thoughts on converting from 8 lug to 5 lug wheel patterns? I want to go with 5 on 5.5 so that they match my other two Broncos so that I can always have a spare set of wheels in case I need them. I'd run 5/8 lugs so I welcome your thoughts.

Philo any useful links to the T Bird Swap? Sorry for all the questions but thank you for responding.

[BajaBronco13]

I've continued to gather some more front end pieces to convert my 1989 Four Door Bronco into 92-96 front end. Here is what I have so far:

I want to go from this:

To this:

Taken off the bumpers and she's looking better already:

 

[BajaBronco13]

Well my black 1995 Bronco is just about to turn 100k (2.3 miles to go), I bought her with only 79k miles from the original owner just over a year ago. My little girl is all grown up, ha ha ha.

 

[BajaBronco13]

Thought I'd share some pics of some pieces that came back from the powder coat shop:

Some brackets for my 92-96 front end swap:

These pieces were media blasted and I just rattled canned them:

Thanks for hooking up the powder coating Tony.

Friend of mine is building one of these for the family prerunner.He plans to run the Ford V-10 running gear in it.Sounds like a cool idea to me.

Yogib,

Your friend is building a four door bronco prerunner? do you have any pics?
