A couple of years ago I wanted a
project vehicle to buy and build up. I didn't know then what
I was getting myself into. I figured a lift, some tires and
off road lights and I would be ready to wheel it. Well I did
that. Then after seeing a few Super Broncos like Bronczilla
and Chris Chu's rides at fullsizebronco.com I decided it was
time to take The Beater and take it up a notch.
I started by filling my garage
with lots of shiny new expensive tools like a Mig welder,
tube bender and half of Harbor Freight Tools inventory. As I
was getting farmilliar with my new tools(toys) I started
looking for parts to build it up.
I started by purchasing
a ford 8.8" rear axle with 4.88 gears and an ARB air locking
differential. I also bought a Dana 44 front axle with 4.88
gears and a true track limited slip. The rear axle was
complete but the front was missing the knuckles out and
didn't include any of the mounting options. I was on my own
for that.
