My wheels, 1984 Bronco II

Post by Wheelz »

Sorry for the crappy photography, wasn't expecting it to get dark that quick today.

Anyhow, It's an '84 BII with the 2.8L (possibly convert to 302), everything is pretty much stock except the suspension. The guy that had it before I got it changed it around a bit so i'm not sure whats in there. I'd like to go another 3", but may cause problems getting the wheelchair in and out of the truck. Right now it sits on 275X75R/15's, which isn't too bad. I'd rather have it on 32's or 33's. We'll have to see what happens.

The engine compartment is alittle scary. For those afraid of rust look away..LOL. Not so much rust, just needs a really good cleaning.

Here's a shot of the passenger side. For sitting for 2yrs I'd say it's in pretty good shape.

Time for a brief update. I finally got my garage so now I have a place to work on the truck without worring about punks slashing my tires. You'll notice the 29X10.5 SuperSwamper TSL/SX's. I also just gave it a quick Redneck Primer job..I really hate the color red :puke:

Future mods are:
2" body lift
3" Suspension lift
Finish Rebuilding my 302 (thinking of running propane)
Get the C4 rebuilt
Need to slice and dice the fenders alittle also.
Lot of other odds and ends
