Hi There Palmer -

Thanks for posting the pic. Looks like a great Bronco and a ton of cool adds. I can't wait to see it in person. Welcome to the club - excited to have you join. Hope to meet up sometime.

Chad.

Sweet ride, sounds like a great trail rig, what did you think of Bill Moore Lake? It is on my short list of trails to do soon.

Skis look great. I am cutting my rockers off due to the rust, holes, etc. I will need to make some of these in 2011. I look forward to seeing what you did with yours.

Great looking truck - I like the tasteful upgrades rims, tires, lift, interior, bumper, etc. while keeping it mostly original. Really nice restoration. Love the color - just like my Brother had.

Twin stick on the 205 is simple. I used 2 stock sticks to make mine. Its easier to pull the t case.

Here is the only pic I have. I hit the junk yard and grabbed another stock stick. I cut the mounts in half so they both fit on the stock pivot bolt. I had pulled the t case out to grind the shift rails so it would work. then just had to fab up the linkage from the shifters to the rails. It's really easy to do.
