Horton, driveshaft opinions wanted

Overview Gallery Discussion
Well final major fabrication is done. Just have to hang fenders and I don't really consider that very major.

Airbump mounts and cans welded on and done.

Time to start putting it all back together:D:D

All I have left to do is hook up the guages, put the new detroit in and shorten a couple hoses.
 
Thats lookin good Eric! I like it, you made it functional yet it looks nice at the same time.
 
I hope my rig ends up half as tough and good looking as Horton. Keep up the amazing work.

Also where did u get those lights they look bright
 
that turned out better than I thought it would. we still need to fill those gaps on the sides but that can wait till you get back. time to get the front axle buttoned up and go for a test run, ill load the kids in the bronco and we can go tomorrow. my old mans house has some nice long straight forest roads that you can make sure those bumpstops are working on...

Thanks guys.

The lights came from my buddy Jon who is helping me alot. They are from a light bar that his buddy gave him. Have no idea what they are.

I have two more lights to go on, when I get back from KOH I will wire them to go on when I hit the brights and have the other ones stay on too.

There is a gap in between the grille and the fender, I think that after I get back I will try to narrow the hood another inch or so to fill the gap up, right now the gap stays.

I will probably do a small tube across the front to protect the winch solenoid pack

:haha::haha::haha::haha::haha:

Well its a bronco dos, so yah no problem. For a Ford its a pretty sweet ride and will soon be able to hang with just about anything out there.

I can't find a pic, Jon post a pic of the bdos. Dana 30 front 3 link, 4.0 v-6 5 speed, soon to have a doubler 8.8" rear on worn out 33s for now but I think Jon has less than a grand into it right now, and its well on its way

harsh, nah horton is waaaaaay to gay to save the bdos but there is a tractor avail so we can pull both rigs out when we inevitably get stuck.

Eric just keep bailey home from school, she is going to be a racecar driver not a rocket scientist haha.
