That thing is amazing, it has every part I could ever dream of. Sadly one look and you can see this will never actuyally be used, I couldn't think of a worse place to put that intercooler, especially on a Pre-runner set-up.

Still awesome tho.

Lol and did you see the Warn Manual hub lockers (cheapos didn't even fit Premiums in there)? I don't think they would survive any real off-road use with that setup. But that intercooler will survive desert use. Also i wouldn't enjoy doing maintenance to that thing AT ALL, look at the sparkplugs and cables...

Yeah lol. Plus they even dyno'd with those tiny tires so they can brag about the numbers they'd have IF they weren't lugging those massive mudders. That is an insane build tho, I can't even imagine how much work ($$$) that was. And the warn hubs are prolly the only part the owner did themselves, so they can say they built it now....

It was also lengthened, which had to have cost a pretty penny. Custom top too.

Doesn't look lengthened, looks like they have smaller windows. That appears to be the Autofab fiberglass bed and the US bodysource tilt front clip.

I've seen pictures of this Bronco somewhere before. I can't remember where, or I'd post up the pics. But I remember it stood out because it was about a foot longer than normal.

You cant see that the back is about a foot longer beyond the rear glass?

Could be, but it looks the same as ours to me.
