Who has the Baddest Bronco
So far the flip has been a nice modification. The main reason we did the flip was that the pinion angle from the 14 bolt swap someone else did before we got the truck was set so high we were afraid that if we got on it it would shear the u joint in just seconds. So while we did that we decided to do the flip at the same time and cut down the blocks in the rear. So far we have been real happy with it, it hasn't hurt any performance and I belive it has helped out as far as ride quality. Granted with our rig it is mostly on the street (spent toooooo much time and money on it to take it out and destroy it in woods/mudd). But that is the story as of yet.

Some nice trucks in here. Im looking through some old posts digesting all the info available here and loving it. Wish I could do to my truck what Fordexp1 did but it definitely kills the ability to go to the car wash or get it in the garage, I barely can get into my garage now, and it has to with all the Stereo equip. With mine being Black I need to wash it to much to always do it myself. I usually give mine a good going over about once a month, buffing and waxing it, and repainting the black on the undercarriage and fender wells. Mines a nice Bronco I think, but there are defintely nicer ones than mine thats for sure!

Who has the Baddest Bronco
I know its been awhile since I have checked back on this thread so I just wanted to say thanks for all the nice comments on our Bronco. Just to answer someones question about the trailer, it was loaned to us by a friend of ours who runs Pro Trucks here locally. They use it to haul their show trucks around and he was nice enough to loan it to us so that we didn't have to drive that monster to PA. (With 44's, a 460 and no AC it would of been a LONG drive...... lol). Anyway it is a 28 foot deck over heavy equipment trailer that we used. They actually traded another person for their old goose neck trailer so I don't know what the going rate on it was. I have looked into a few new ones and they seem to run starting out about 6,000. (for a good one with the brake setup and a lockable storage box on the front). Anyway thanks again and I will try to check this site more often and help out where I can.
