I have been building this for about 8 months now. Taking my time and hoping it will be ready to drive again this summer. I drove it one summer and decide it was time to make it respectable.
40,000 original miles EFI 302, 3 speed, 35" MTR's, hydroboost brakes.
If you are lucky you could get spacers out of a junkyard, my brother found two sets out of a couple XJ's and put them in his soon to be wife's TJ. Gotta love peopl who dont know whats what, he got em for 3 bux a piece :d:
by the way the TJ is nice but, the Bronco definitly wins the prize
It will be on the road soon, here are some pics of the cage progress from this past week. It is my first cage and it is turning out pretty good. Been learning alot of good stuff and what not to do. It has cost me a little in tube for practice but not too bad.
Thanks to Tab for the footplates, I think I need to get some more because I changed my mind on where they will mount to the floor due to the frame tie ins.
I could have used ya a few times but you would have been bored while was figuring out what to do and how to do it but I am happy with how it is turning out.
The pvc was my way of not wasting tube and it has helped me visualize before commiting to steel.
Yea it took me a little to get the nerve to cut and bend the tube but watch out there wont be much holding me back from bending a cage around the world now :thumb:
Let me know when you want to do that rear section on yours.
I like the through dash cages, keeps em outta the way. It will be tied in just been on the back burner for over a month now. I have another project goin on now and plan to get back at it soon.
I definitely dont need another project now, I will be tied up for a while.
It you want that tubing kinker you can bend it up using black pipe.
