 Re: 74 Baja Race Bronco - Baja or BustIn the spirit of Chris's build, and for those that get the Elrey network on DirecTv, they have the 50th Anniversary Baja 500 Sunday at 6pm.

74 Baja Race Bronco - Baja or Bust Finished working on most of the frame, cutting off what I don’t need, track bar drop bracket, stock shock mounts etc. turned out the stock track bar bracket was junk so cut that off too and used a heavy duty drop bracket I had laying around and fabbed up a new one.
 Re-enforced some spots on the frame, leaf spring hangers, radius arm frame mounts, both sides of the frame where the steering box mounts and a few other spots. Threw a quick coat of paint on it.  Mounted the rear springs, axle is under it but still have to cut out some of the back brace to make room for the spring perch and u bolts and burn in the rear brake brackets.   Working on the Dana44, should have it rebuilt tomorrow and hopefully get it mounted under the frame manãna. _________________ 1976 Bronco "Green, Yellow, whatever", 1969 Bronco "Red", 1972 Bronco Stocker "Kind of Blue/Grayish" |

Re: 74 Baja Race Bronco - Baja or Bust Sure makes it a lot easier to hang that stuff onto a bare frame! Or at least, that is my assumption as I've never had that luxury!

74 Baja Race Bronco - Baja or Bust Front end is rebuilt and re-geared and then slid it under the frame. Welded the front and rear lower shock mounts, started running fuel, brake and transmission cooling lines.

Re: 74 Baja Race Bronco - Baja or Bust Whose leaf spring plate is that? I feel like I have some issues with mine, even tho they are extra thick...

74 Baja Race Bronco - Baja or Bust Forgot I started to weigh stuff.
  Will weigh the transfer case and transmission when I pull it again. Need to weigh the leveler to subtract it from the transmission. Will also weigh both ends of the bronco once I have a few more things on it. _________________ 1976 Bronco "Green, Yellow, whatever", 1969 Bronco "Red", 1972 Bronco Stocker "Kind of Blue/Grayish" |
