 New to me 75Hi all, I've been around here and there, mostly lurking and reading about the exploits of the members.
Recently I picked up a 75 roadster style that's a good driver and should be a capable off roader as well. This one is running a 86 5.0 carbed duraspark ignition with less than 40k on it. 4:11 gears Np435 tranny and J shift. Yukon 31 spline axles and Detroit locker in the rear with an ARB in the D44 front. Manual brakes with Disc up front. Heim joint steering setup. Currently running add-a leaf and short block in the rear and 2 1/2 lift up front. Rides pretty decent as it stands now but needs a bit more lift for the 35's it has on it. Body is in decent condition. Has some rust in the tailgate and inner fenders and some in the rockers. there was a little bondo work done and the paint was a home grown job thats a 10 footer. Some chipping where the inserts were attempted to be made seamless. The plan is to drive it and work on the small stuff. Done so far- General cleanup Put some aftermarket buckets in it I had. Replaced fluids Hood shocks added. Tach added Cherokee wiper conversion Changed out steering wheel Additional items planned. Get a family cage get a back seat (trailmax II fold and tumble for the grandkid) Get a rampage soft top Replace fuel sender in rear Replace headlight switch Sand /paint and get hard doors I already have ready to mount.  4 yr old Grandson lending a hand.  NP435 and j shifts bends     My Grandson , just loves spending time working, cleaning, riding and anything to do with bronco's  Brett _________________ 75 D44/ARB/Disc PS. 86 5.0 Carbed- NP-435 yukon rear. 4.11 3.5 Susp lift Rampage top Last edited by BNC04 on Mon Apr 29, 2013 1:13 pm, edited 1 time in total. |
