Looking great!  Is the first bronco to lay body?

not the first bronco, there are a couple of newer ones laid out on ssm, and an early bronco being built (also on ssm).  But perhaps the first 2nd gen?

Have you tested the turning radius it looks like it will work from the pics?   looks good

---------------------------------------------Originally posted by bigjonHave you tested the turning radius it looks like it will work from the pics?   looks good---------------------------------------------it turns pretty much lock to lock without hitting right now... which is good, but i want the extra lift to get a somewhat stock looking height when up. why aren't you at work slacker?

they come in different track widths and are all set up for the steering rack,  or suicide doors makes a really nice one http://www.suicidedoors.com/-63-87-fullsize-chevy-parts/p-47-63-87-fullsize-chevy-raised-crossmember-combo-kit

Thanks Javy! Jon- thanks for showing that stuff to me a-hole, lol.  now i want to re-do the front AGAIN. lol. I think  if i "lower" the z, i will be able to gain a couple more inches of lift, as far as the steering goes- i would prefer to use a rack but budget is restricting me on anything cool for the moment.

lol, not enough for me to want to bring it up yet, lol.  I've had some pieces laser cnc cut for re-z-ing the front (reinforcing gussets) and some custom sized tabs for the rear cylinder mounts, but haven't been able to do much since the bronco got moved to storage.  i am working out the details to get an oversized 2-car shop for almost nothing for rent and if i am able to work that out it'll be on like donkey kong!  i am also trying to get some front cylinders coming my way to get the front operational.....  i'm piling up the parts and planning a bronco siege.......  until then- nothin sorry.
