shock hoops?
does anyone know if any company makes off the shelf front shock hoops for the 80-96 bronco? Or if not does anyone know of a good fab shop in SoCal? I want to hoop the front out because I want to run longer shocks and also have more shock options from running eye/eye mounting versus eye/stem mounting (to run good shocks like Fox, SAW or Kings) thanks

Buy the factory mounts! I had single shocks. It seems ford knew the earlier broncos needed a second shock, so started incorporating it around 1993-1994 as stock. I was able to buy the mounts directly from ford, along with new coil springs. I am redoing the front suspension now, and will only use rubber where possible since the poly bushings cause a stiffer ride.

Those front suspension setups use two shocks yes, but they also use coil springs, and all 4x4 f series trucks use leaf spring up front instead of coils, the 2x4 models had coils but I dont think you can convert the front suspension to coild w/o a lot of extra work.
