thats what i thought lol im having a hard time trying to find a light bar for my bronco

Spool&Go 12-09-2010 04:07 PM

I'll keep an eye out for one.

im2tall33 12-09-2010 04:24 PM

i dont know if they make them for BII's but i have seen some BIIs with them

Spool&Go 12-10-2010 09:38 AM

It'll just take a little fabrication to fit if they dont make one for the BII's specifically. I'm sure you could make it happen. I'll look for something close.

jredline1984 12-10-2010 09:45 AM

I work for a steel fabricator Micah (hint, hint)

Spool&Go 12-10-2010 09:51 AM

How much would it cost you to make a bumper similar to the ones in this thread? (hint hint)

jredline1984 12-10-2010 10:01 AM

That thing is pretty stout, by the time we were finished it would be double the price you could buy it for as we would still have to spend the initial cash for R&D

Spool&Go 12-10-2010 10:06 AM

I see. well I suppose it wouldn't have to be that fancy. but I do want to eventualls get an " I win" bumper.

jredline1984 12-10-2010 10:09 AM

I win bumper? Lol. We might be able to come up with something more cost effective.

Spool&Go 12-10-2010 10:10 AM

Have any ideas? And how is that MT chapter forum logo coming. I started drafting one. If you wanna take a look at it.

im2tall33 12-10-2010 10:51 AM

Depends on how complicated the design is and how stout it needs to be.

Spool&Go 12-13-2010 03:45 PM

I'm not happy with it yet but it is just a start ....

jredline1984 12-15-2010 06:46 AM

Everything has to start somewhere. Looks good Bryce.

Spool&Go 12-15-2010 09:00 AM

Thanks guys. Well I'll see what I can do with the time I have. I am still in the process of tuning up the 7.3l forum one so we can get some decals and t shirts made but I'll keep chuggin on them as time allows

jredline1984 01-19-2011 11:17 PM

I put her on a trailer and hauled it home from my buddies shop until I can find a damn NP205!

im2tall33 01-20-2011 10:35 AM

jredline1984 01-20-2011 10:36 AM

Yeah, the 79, lol

jredline1984 06-13-2011 09:58 AM

im2tall33 06-13-2011 12:57 PM

jredline1984 06-13-2011 11:08 PM

Nope, trim panel installs back over it:

im2tall33 06-14-2011 10:23 AM

nice!! can you keep it on that screen? i like the big ford logo lol

jredline1984 06-14-2011 01:43 PM

The emblem comes up briefly on startup and will stay on if the unit is powered down.

jredline1984 06-15-2011 02:40 PM

Received the emblem for the factory chrome grille my insurance company replaced. Going to install it and see how it compares to the Roush unit currently installed on the 07.

im2tall33 06-15-2011 02:46 PM

cool i personally love the roush grill

im2tall33 06-17-2011 10:34 AM

sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jredline1984 06-17-2011 01:51 PM

I picked up the factory subwoofer for my truck to go along with the rest of the audiophile system I sourced. The best part is I have less than $400 invested so far. :D

Yup they're fam, my dad and my uncle. I don't see anything wrong with the Cat plates, badge of honor, LOL! Its those damn girly grizz plates I would be embarrased to have on my rig. Maroon? Blah!

Darn kids, I have to clean up enough ****** as it is at work, lol. One of me is bad enough, haha.

Here is a pic of the woofer:

jredline1984 07-06-2011 09:07 AM

Installed the factory sub in my truck and she hits hard!

jredline1984 08-01-2011 08:16 AM

Picked up an NP205 TCase for the 79. I still need an adaptor for the C6 and shift linkage for it though.

Hmmm, this thread seems slightly self serving at times.....

Spool&Go 08-02-2011 02:35 PM

Nice Grill buddy! Long time no talk. How the heck are ya? And if you wanna hear bumps you should hop into my truck = ).

79CAMOFORD 08-02-2011 04:49 PM

My 04 is at the auto body shop because the wife rear-ended someone but on the bright side i'm getting a Frontier bumper-grill guard combo, I'll get pics up as soon as I get the truck back at the end of August.

jredline1984 08-02-2011 07:46 PM

HOLY CRAP, ITS BRYCE!! How's it going buddy? I know my factory system is anemic compared to yours, but it hits surprisingly hard for a OEM unit.

Sorry about the 04 Kyle, hopefully there wasn't too much damage.

79CAMOFORD 08-03-2011 10:13 AM

Ya try 6k worth of damage, I thought about letting her take the beast
