Anyone else on here building a new Bronco? Snagged this one for my wife in April and it’s been on the trail almost every weekend since. So far we’ve done an Icon coil over lift, skid plates and sliders, 35s on 16s and some cosmetic stuff.
Does anyone know if there is a yoke out there compatible with the 4R55E trans in my ranger? I need to eliminate the slip yoke in the trans and build a custom driveline. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
It's been years since I have posted in here so I thought I would share some pics of Me and my friend's trucks.
The red truck and the gen 2 with the light rack both have 302 v8s, other two have 4.0s.
So my ranger has a 4.0 v6 and Auto from a 95 ranger. It has 33's and 5.86 gears and at 70 mph the speedo says 105 and cuts the fuel. I am going to get a Programmer to remove the governor eventually but is there any temporary solution to remove the governor that wont effect anything else?
Finally getting started on the race truck project, super pumped for this build.
Progress should be pretty quick.
LS1 for the heart. Pushed for a Ford motor but this was on the shelf lol
Burnett' s Sand Center has been building sand rails and dune buggies for many years and recently has jumped into building desert trucks.
This is one of their recent projects: I beam ranger, being converted to equal length D44 beams and cross-over steering.

last week I get in my truck to go to work and the it just clicks..the blue top optima battery is not very old and was reading good voltage. So I try and...
RaceRangers Build (too many pics)
OK, well I decided that instead of a thread for every major mod I make to the ol' Ford, I would consolidate my build into a single thread that I could add too.
Shortly after picking up the truck.
Had a Camburg 5.5 bent beam coil lift and the aftermarket...
Now that schools out I finally had time to put the new beam set-up on!

spent some time buffing out the truck today, the bed didn't even look white up close because of all the scratches. Also removed a few stickers and i think it looks way cleaner.

I know my truck isnt quite done yet but i couldn't help and do some testing on the dudes:

So i was kinda in a rush to get some kind of rear suspension travel before I head to the desert early nov. So i tried this set-up and it worked amazing considering it only cost my about $200 plus shocks.
First- bought a 64" leaf spring from an 06 1500 silderado:
then i had them arched to 12"...
