Nice!!
Your about 4-5 inches wider then mine and I bet she'll grow up some more when you get the rear leveled up to the front. By the looks of the front diff pix if this is at your projected ride height, you'll be sitting a few inches higher then me.
She's looking great man!!!
I've been contemplating removing the inner fender structure and core support and replacing it with a tubular structure as well, how was it to remove?? Did you just cut it off or actually drill out the spot welds?
A buddy and I were outside measuring my rig the other day, we decided I have roughly 6-7" of combined suspension and body lift. However, going from the 205 75 r15 (27") up to the 38x12.5's also gave me another 5-ish inches lift! That's a WHOPPING 11-12" LIFT TOTAL!! OUCH!
I'd still LOVE to loose another few inches of lift some day, lol. She is pretty stable mind you, have been on some very steep side hills and severe leaning obstacles and she's stayed planted "so far." I can afford to loose a couple inches in the rear as the front already sits a couple inches lower than the rear and keep the BL or even half the BL and take an inch out of the rear suspension...... I'd like to be sitting at roughly 4" suspension/bl lift then add the 5inches of tire height lift and have her sitting 9" over stock with tire height included. LOL, I've seen guys add 9" of combined lift (6" suspension + 3" BL) just to make room for 35-36's, haha, not often you see a total lift of 9" including tires!
I just got back from HRC and really want to build up a rig to compete now, lol, watching some of the CrawlinBC boys get it, I'm hooked now!! The one guy, Jenson and his d44/9" combo under his Heep made me realize my rig is basically ready to play with these big boys, aside from missing a couple components like full cage and air bump stops and maybe some more power, lol. We'll be back there next year for sure. Buddy of mine is also building an HRC rig too, it's a lwb LJ Sammy converted to p/u with vortec 4.3/4l60/toy doubler sitting on linked Toy 8" axles with longfields and 40" LTB's. He's contemplating on rear steer now. I can't decide if I should start building a tube buggy, get the Rover ready for this or get the Bronco ready for this!!!! LOL decisions decisions, haha.
