Got some of the frame with rust convertor, painted it, cut out the rear cargo area, and preped some out the othe areas. Also removed the rear bumper. Tons of work to do still. Tomorrow last college exam, so hopefully I can get a ton work work done over the break. :shrug :slap

 

[drexelsteve]

since u got the rear cut out are u gonna raise the tank. seems like the perfect opportunity to me

 

[gobucs]

I will raise it some I just dont know how high yet though. I have to do a lot of work before I put a new floor in it. New supports everywhere. Will get better pics when I get batteries for the camera.

Just costly. Was going to replace all the body mounts, but at aroud 30 a peice nope. :wtf It is just rubber? Hopefully driveable by late january.

ahh who carse about rust, i hate people that bitch about if your truck is rusty or dented or shit...there made to beat the piss outta them anyways so fawk looks unless its a street truck

 

[Davids78Bronco]

Ri-i-i-ght. say that when your body tub falls onto the frame, or when the sides fall below the floorline

 

[HWY TO HELL]

well i mean like surface rust ect fender rust...I hate when people dis my bronco cause its rusty...i dont care i can just paintover it its not like im gona enter a show or somthin

 

[2fordtrucks]

Wow, you have a lot of work ahead of you, but these trucks are worth it.

This is the perfect time to install a frame mounted cage. Seeing how it is going to be a trail rig. :beer

 

[gobucs]

I wish on that cage thought. Who knows I will price it just to see. And like david mentioned, My body has fallen through most of the mounts. And the exhaust enters it when running through the rust spots.

 

[Damager]

it'll be juuust fine ... keep up the good work my man :thumbup

you'll get out of it what you put into it

 

[Dovepower]

The last time I checked I was quoted $60 a point. Maybe you could get a cage kit and tie it into the frame. Is the front floor pan as bad as the rear?

 

[Davids78Bronco]

I wish, on that cage thought.

If only there were an economical way to ship a cage

 

[Dovepower]

A bolt in cage kit would come dissassembled in a box. You have to assemble it in the truck. I believe they were about $350 for a complete kit from K Bar S who is out of business now. Though I think someone else bought their products lincensing.
