[QUOTE="Jefe, post: 15965493, member: 41358"] Notice the new plate. LUBR is a Bronco term that means Lifted Uncut Bronco or Left Uncut Bronco. This is how they came from the factory but the majority of owners cut the rear fenders wider for larger tires [ATTACH=full]1503883[/ATTACH] Bought some Protofab Rock Solid bumpers, sold the seats, pulled the tanks and this is where we stopped driving it [ATTACH=full]1503884[/ATTACH] Picked up a set of Bronco script valve covers and installed with new gaskets on the original but rebuilt 302 [ATTACH=full]1503885[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1503886[/ATTACH] Ive made it a mission to track down every Bronco owner near me so I had some Bronco brothers over to help with some suspension, driveshaft items. Hopefully this was only the first of many project days to come as these guys were much more knowledgeable than me! [ATTACH=full]1503887[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1503888[/ATTACH] We dropped the entire rear end and moved the rear axle back 1", added 1 leaf back into the pack(2 removed), made sure the rear driveshaft was long enough, replace all 4 shocks with Bilstein 5100s, and cleaned up all of the wheel studs rather than replacing. They weren't as bad as I thought after some grinding. [ATTACH=full]1503889[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1503890[/ATTACH] I have also picked up a 2015 Hellcat as a daily driver. 707HP, what a car! My Grandpa supervising the Bronco work [ATTACH=full]1655560[/ATTACH] Found some 2005 Mustang seats at a junkyard, bought a fold and tumble from Toms and a Rampage center console off Amazon [ATTACH=full]1503891[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1503892[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1503893[/ATTACH] The front seats sit very low, recline and tilt so I can get in the back from both sides. Bought the Wildhorses seat box for an easy passenger seat mount and I will probably mount a marine amp under it for the speakers [ATTACH=full]1503894[/ATTACH] Bought some fiberglass interior quarter panels and already had aluminum door panels. Tried my hardest to find matching material to the fold n tumble and its impossible. [ATTACH=full]1503895[/ATTACH] So I took them all down to an upholstery shop who wrapped them in two tone waterproof vinyl. [ATTACH=full]1503896[/ATTACH] I have some extremely strong neodymium magnets that will go on the back of the inner panels and Im planning on putting 6.5" speakers in those up front. I wanted to be able to pull the panels back so I can hide tools/parts in the rear sections [ATTACH=full]1503897[/ATTACH] Had them cut the Mustang seat head rests down to match the fold n tumble height a little better [ATTACH=full]1503898[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1503899[/ATTACH] Sent the speedometer out to Kevin at Classy Gauges who did a fantastic job. Speedo got a full rebuild which is not cheap! New speedometer head unit, all gauges done in brushed aluminum, chromed bezel, new odometer drum.clip, turn signal/high beam lenses, and added a Bronco script emblem.
