Howdy Misery (ex) neighbors. Just passin' thru. Figured I'd see . Thinking about doing a tech post, not sure it could match up to The Big Boss Man's though. Not sure I have enough skill to match him, that light bulb WAS a pretty tricky one .

It will be very simler to the two wheel trailers the pull behind the hummers! In my mind it will have a 4foot wide 8 foot long and 3 foot deep bed, heavy tail gate that doubles as a ramp 1 1/2 side rails with 3/16 plate steal sides, big round finders (maybe old step side finders), 10,000lb axle, pintel hitch, trailer breaks, led lights, 37s and wheels to match the Bronco!

It doesn't look like I'm getting anything done on the engine job today. These carburetors are gonna take up most of the day. I only have one done so far. I have to make a matched set for a tunnel ram set up, so I have to change somethings inside so they'll work with all that extra air. If the guy doesn't buy them, I'll have a nice set of tunnel ram carburetors for sale. (...but I hope he comes through and buys them.)

FENDERS not finders! As in "finders keeper, looser weeper".

I have just what you need a M105A2 with a 4" C channel frame under it with 2" hitch. Can take it off and put a pintle on instead? I just need to attach my spare complete 79 D60 rear axle with leaf springs and over loads under it.

Interested? PM me. Attached are internet pics so you have a idea what I am talking about trailer wise. It's 110" long and 83" wide with tail gate.

Another project going to waste.......

Looked at the 37s today, JUNK! so did not buy! It tuned out to be the same guy I had been talking to for a while, he said he had not called me about the tires cause he thought I wanted better and he was right! He had a 94 power stroke bronco on 46s no fender trimming it was bad ***! had a 2000s ford f350 with 6 37s under it! And a bowtie with 52s?

They're both done, but the only pictures I took today are before and afters. I took these after I finished the first one. The second one IS done, I just don't have a picture of it yet.





They both started out looking like the one on the right. Now they both look like the one on the left.

I had to do a fair amount of repair work as well as rebuilding and tuning for the tunnel ram. Internals are set up different for a tunnel ram.

I have plenty of parts for them, that's for sure. I thought I had four of them, turns out I had these two and a couple parts carbs.

I still have a 625 Carter AFB, a 700 Holley dual feed double pumper with mechanical secondaries, and a 750 Vacuum secondary Holley with a four corner idle circuit.

I may have enough gaskets and pieces to rebuild your carb without buying any parts. I'd have to check, though. I need to get another super kit. I'm running out of different squirters, power valves and accelerator pump cams. I could use another jet kit too. Some of my smaller jets I'm running low on.
