Woodys BII build-ish

[WoodyB2]

so today when i was cleaning my truck out i noticed that the carpet was drenched...and i haven't been driving anywhere...so i pulled back a spot of carpet and saw pooled water...YAY

every low point was like this or worse(also the carpet was completely soaked:

hardhat is my bolt holder =D

picked up most of water with rags...i might just rhino line the floor now...

and put together enough to drive to work in the morning:

 

[Grunizzle]

time to rhino line it dude

 

[WoodyB2]

ya i need to pay my ticket first...then buy the rhino liner then remove that god awful stuff they put on the floor.

but i think the floor will be done before i get my shocks...i think its more important.

 

[Hahnsb2]

I thought you paid that ticket? If not, fight it! Fawk Milwaukee and their revenue generating bullshit!

You find the leak?

 

[Robert_1967]

I found out the hard way, that stuff Ford puts down is great for capturing water and hiding rust.

also, don't use heat, get a stiff scrapper, that stuff will pop off like crazy, heat will cause it to bond better to the metal.


Good luck on your build

I might, but i hate milwaukee...with a passion...

...also i think we found the leak, it has always been there but now that i am parking outside i just found it, its in the door

thanks for the pointers...and i will

 

[WoodyB2]

Wow...i had almost forgot about my build thread...it has been sent to the shelf right now due to the lack of a job...i really want to get it built.

The bad news is the cab is still leaking(most likely from the front window) i need shocks still for the lift.

i need to get the matching driver door on that has been leaning on my quad for a while. then i might just poke around with some cheap cosmetic stuff to get my mind rolling again.

 

[RacinNdrummin]

Check your seem sealer in the rain gutters, or the seal around your back windows... Mine leaks like a sonofabitch and I put silicone everywhere to help with it... Stays dry for the most part now...

 

[WoodyB2]

Thanks man i will check all those.

 

[4x4b2]

How hard was it to make those half doors? I wanna make some!

 

[kris97ranger]

id definetly take a groover to the 36"s i found a set the exact same size for my buddys toyota and he groved them out dug down to the belts in between the lugs and cut around all the lugs to get a nice sharp corner on them all plus with the lugs being that tiny bit smaller they clean out real nice come spring im doing mine the same way

The half doors were not that hard to make just gut the door cut it and weld...i had a friend help me because i cant weld for shat.

ya i was planning on doing that when i get around to lifting it and putting the axles under.

 

[WoodyB2]

Ok...so being broke i cant really do what i want to the stallion right now but i can do some tinkering..

both doors on and painted flat black:

Mounted the license plate on the bumper using mag-lite clips, and mounted my mag-lite in between the seats:

A shot of my crappy interior with the lovely blue door panels:

and one that is not related...parents got new tires for the dodge(you can see my tires and my old broken door...lol):

 

[4x4b2]

woody, where is the updates man?

 

[WoodyB2]

Well might as well post something here, haven't in forever...

nothing really has happened to the bronco recently, its still brown and black.

I am hoping to pick up a truck soon, its a 1986 f-250

so with that as my DD i can turn my attention back to the B2 and hope to turn it into a wheeler in my spare time. I am starting work and school soon...get me an education and hopefully get a good job.

so i hope to get some updates rolling on either rig here this month or next.

 

[Hahnsb2]

Isn't that Kenny's truck? 460?

 

[WoodyB2]

Ya that's his old truck 460 with a c6

 

[Hahnsb2]

Have fun feeding that pig :icon_surprised:

 

[WoodyB2]

Well my bronco gets such shitty gas mileage right now anyway....
