Woodys BII build-ish

[WoodyB2]

well today i got a few more of the loose end buttoned up, not really any more pics besides the shifter and floor plate.


I still need to figure out what i am going to do to cover up the hole that is in the floor now. need to search the junk yards around the area to find the correct floor plate and shift boots.

 

[WoodyB2]

well got the tires mounted thanks to hahn, and got them on. need to trim a little bit but photobucket is being stupid and i cant upload pics right now.

 

[WoodyB2]

i got the pictures uploaded, here they are.

swapping the tires onto my rims thanks to hahn

i think i need an alignment...

looks good, now fab yourself a rear bumper to match the front

 

[Hahnsb2]

That's the plan.

The gearing is perfect, even with the 4.0 tranny.

 

[WoodyB2]

Yeah, Hahn and I talked about that today. The stock rear bumper looks like crap. A "matching" rear bumper would be very nice, also it would be nice to have a rear recovery point.

The front bumper needs to be re-painted, it has been neglected and is looking a bit sad. And the weather has been getting better so i should be able to paint the bronco soon.

after today (with a lot of help from hahn):

and an appearance from hahns dakota

 

[Hahnsb2]

Yeah we got the camber perfect after a few tries then set the toe, then drove it and it pulled to the right pretty bad, so we added some positive caster to the right side then screwed up the camber, messed with it a few more times and was able to get it almost dead nuts, still pulls a C-hair to the right but not dangerously and the camber is a C-hair positive but not enough to hurt.

 

[WoodyB2]

yeah the first time we set the camber is the caster was so far out of whack it was terrifying to drive

 

[Grunizzle]

Nice! Time to go take it out for a good thrashing now eh?

 

[WoodyB2]

Well drove it to work today, still pulls right a bit and the brakes are still spongy. Other then that runs great. Tires ride nice for not being balanced, i was surprised

 

[Hahnsb2]

Balanced tires are overrated.

 

[Robert_1967]

Round tires are over rated also

well got different new tires...

then cut my fenders so i didnt mess the tires up...the cut is still rough, need to clean it up but i dont care for now

i got the best i could with a floor jack but the fronts look good, rears need to be cut still

and say good buy to ol' blue

 

[WoodyB2]

well i pulled out the overhead console cause i want to mount my CB in that area. so started to move the head liner to get a look at it and next thing i know the whole thing is gone...now i just need to figure out how i am going to mount the 148.

hmm
