The story

Bought it from the 2nd owner who only owned it 2 years, knowing full-well I liked the truck but I would always want a fullsize Bronco more. I dig FSJ's and plan to build mine as well as my '91 Chevy 'Burb but if either gets in the way of my hunt for a Bronco.......one or both will go.

The rough draft on this rig :

- AMC 360 build (yes,I'm keeping it)
- AMC TH400 tranny build
- Dana300 build/swap
- 1-ton axle build/swap
- SOA + shackle reversal and lift springs up front/ inboarded GM 63's out back
- Crossover steering with Ram-assist
- big meats
- full cage
- electrical overhaul (painless,autometer,etc)
and of course, .120 wall bumpers and sliders......... — Roostertail
