Picked up my new toy

[FalconG2]

I picked up a 1987 Bronco yesterday. 94k miles 302 5.0 4x4, not bad for $1200. So far all ive had to do was put a battery in it to get it home, ran down the interstate great at 65mph. Even better since its been sitting since 09, and only had 3k miles put on since 05. Changed oil and antifreeze, plugs, wires, air filter. Hopefully before snow starts falling im gonna throw a small lift, prolly 3" and sum 33s under it with some new rims. Buddys gonna help me with some body work next summer to stop the cancer.

How much work is it to install a real axle under the front of one of those?

[FalconG2]

Im not sure.. i changed the rear axle on my old dodge and took me bout 2.5 hrs, but that was b/c i had to run to ultimate truck to get new ubolts since i had to sawzal the old ones.... this im not sure i used to have a 86 in highschool but didnt do much to it. I bought my dodge about 8 months later


and What the **** is tuttle??

[Hillbilly]

wouldn't it be hard to steer?

[SVTslowbra]

:lol:

[82355]

Replacing the rear axle in a Dodge has nothing to do with my question.

[burban swervin]

SFA FTMFW!!!!! Get one!!

[MadmaX]

five digit odo ftw

[Hillbilly]

So then you will have 2 rear axles and no front axle? how will you steer? Oh and sfa swap is the ONLY way to fly.

[FalconG2]

Ya, but they used lube so it didnt hurt.

Anyone know of some 33s or 31 for 15s for sale? or some where cheap to get a set?? If not i think im gonna run to firth to YTour next tire and get a set, thats where my brother got his Dean MXT and they work great and theyre really cheap, but with christmas coming im trying to save money. They worked great last week on my hunting trip, but have a lot of dry rot from sitting
Thanks

[FalconG2]

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc260/FalconG2/1122111450.jpg lookin all sexy like with them new 31s... 33s woulda been way sexier but 31s shall do

[toom1h]

It does not look sexy.

But I'm surprised how you keep dodging some simple questions.

[Hillbilly]

What about going to TUTTLE?

[MadmaX]

kind of unremarkable

[turbodaytona87]

Are you now forgetting the lift? Or are you going to run those cute little things with the lift?

[82355]

Good buy on those wheels and tires. White spokes would sure look better with that paint job. Just go to Wal Mart and buy a case of $0.96 flat black paint, and that thing would look a lot better.

Luckily that was posted twice.

No lift broncos are mostly worthless at tuttle. Fuel tank draggers.

[FalconG2]

ya but im broke and christamas is coming up i have 1 more check thats not used for morgatge or bills and thats gonna go towards presents. lift will come later i just needed new tires because mine were super weather checked and ready to blow out. Tires only have 300 miles on them, not gonna pass up that deal. Itll get me thru winter then next summer ill start some work on it, body, paint etc...

[FalconG2]

Cant ***** too much tho, i got a 4x4 with almost new tire, runs great, and has 94k miles for a whopping total of 1600 into it so far...

[Devilstang93]

Should have bought 33s and just cut off what rubbed.

[Hillbilly]

Should have bought 35s and just cut off what rubbed.

[burban swervin]

[95-camaro-95]

Fun things, buddy had an 89. Watch out.. they love rust. Especially floor boards, front and back.
