CURRENT BUILD:
1990 Bronco "Better Half"
Picture
Another "Survivor" we found wasting away in a repair shop lot.  351/E40D.  Plan is to get it running and driving again.  Oh, and strip basically everything off the frame, clean it up and slap a set of one-ton axles and 35" tires under it. 

The Fleet:
1988 Bronco " The Weekend Warrior"
Picture
466CID big block, running on Stinger Performance ECU
C6 with Trans-go shift kit and a Broader Performance torque converter.
Front axle is custom, using a Currie Rock Jock center, loosely based on a 79 Ford D60 with some upgrades, including 5.13s, ARB, Yukon 35 spline axles + Yukon hardcore hubs.  Rear axle is a D70 with detroit locker, Moser Engineering 35 spline shafts and disc brakes.  42" Maxxis Trepadors on 17" Stazworks beadlocks.
​
Completely restored from 2015-2022 and includes electric fan with DC Controls fan controller, custom built accessory drive for York OBA, Warn 15k, custom bumpers and rock sliders, the list goes on!

1996 Bronco "The Daily Driver"
Picture
"survivor" truck.  Found rotting away in someone's yard with half a 302.  Dropped in a 351 and restored to good running order!
​  
351w, E4OD with punisher valve body and some internal upgrades all in the name of preservation!
8-lug TTB front-end, Sterling 10.25 in the rear with 4.10 gears.
Front is 2.5" Tuff Country lift, rear is Superduty B-code leaf springs.  "Restored" in 2016 and been driven every day since! 

1996 F250 "The Workhorse"
Picture
7.3 Powerstroke.  Baby Swamps injectors + Swamps IDM & 6-pos chip.  Your typical intake, downpipe & exhaust mods, and a Coolingmist water-methanol injection setup.  Predictably blown up E4OD was fully rebuilt with all the upgrades including stainless planetaries and a billet converter.
Front D60 hung with a PMF Suspension SD shackle reversal using Superduty X code leaf springs.  Rear is an ancient set of Skyjacker lift springs.  Oh yeah and the bed tilts.  In the parts gathering phase for a possible restoration project in 2023!
