bought another parts truck, 87 f350 4x4 460 5 speed rclb. bought it as a parts truck for a bronco project i am getting together, now to find a 80-86 bronco that is up to my standards

also came with another sterling in the bed, body is shot and i mean shot.

front king pin 60. 4 inch lift springs, and 96 alcoas with all 4 factory caps in great shape!

i thought it was a good deal

 

I always knew you were sweet on the brick nose.

 

Nice. But you need to start a new thread for the bronco

 

He is still on the lookout for a Bronco.

 

yupp i figured once i found the bronco i want i will make a build thread for it!

 

Right on Matt, I'll be watching

 

little update

never posted pictures but about a month and a half ago i got my b&w turnover hitch installed, as well as my hella halogen back up lights

yesterday the truck was up for service so i serviced it and then i installed my p3 brake controller, i will update back after i use it to see how i like it

Then my flag pole mounts on the rear stake pockets. they are 1 1/4" galvanised pipe on both sides, the hole drilled in each is for the pin i have in em both. the flag poles themselves are 1" galvanised pipe. have had the truck at 80mph with em up and have had zero issues. they are sturdy as heck

Main concern was i didnt want to use wood or pvc like most do and risk it breaking off

 

Whats up with your spare tire mount

 

its bolted into place, i havent carried my spare since the accident, it wont fit under there so the spare tire carrier isnt even on the truck

 

 

Lookin great Matt

 

Its time to start that new thread I think!

 

okay i my pictures are being a pain in the butt for some reason

anyways
bought a 1997 f350 cclb 4x4 7.3 auto last week for 500 bucks
motor had a cracked block so they pulled it the trans and the xfer case so it has no driveline

has 180k on it
am probably gonna part it out
it has 4.10 axles so if everything checks out ithey will be swapped into my 97 because i have 3.55s and i hate it
anywyas the truck has clean doors xlt interior clean fenders and cab is in workable shape too. bed is shot

here are some pics

 

Well that didn't go as planned

 

not sure why i couldnt get pics working i think it should be good now
