I'm going to look at the early bronco tomorrow. They said it's an early 70's and they actually have a tittle for it! I'm gonna offer to trade him a 77 F250 and a 79 bronco for it. If he doesn't go for it then I'll offer some cash on top.

That would be sweet. Good luck man. Ok guys. I got home from camping and sold some stuff. Got a little money set aside now so I could possibly get some tires. Anyone know of anything 35 or bigger for a good deal?

Anybody interested in some 14 inch fox 2.0 air shocks? Cheaper and easier to tune as opposed to a coil over. I was going to use them on my ranger sas but I'll be going a different route on my expo. They are brand new in the box.

I paid 460 for them about a year and a half ago with shipping. I posted them for 400 on cl. Because you would be putting them on a ranger I'd do 370. The cheapest I have seen is about 430 plus shipping.

Doubler is getting shipped next week and I'm buying 7/8 ruff stuff steering kit this weekend. Just need tires and I'll be on the trail. Wes do you have a tube bender? I want to make some sliders.

No tubing bender yet. I did my sliders out of 2x4 tube they came out good. But if you really want round tube check out the trail gear ones for a 4 runner they are a pretty good deal
