Aftermarket Frames?

I have an opportunity to get a 76 Bronco for dirt cheap, but the frame is shot. Does anyone make a replacement frame like they do for the CJ's? I'd really hate to pass up this deal, but if I can't find a frame its kind of pointless.

Aftermarket Frames?

Yes, don't pass up that bronco!!! There is a company out of Oregon Called Tom's Bronco Parts(1-541-779-1339) They have totally reconditioned frames guarenteed rust free for $265!!!! You can't beat that! I have my own sandblaster and I couldn't even clean mine up for that! They don't always have v-8 frames but they throw in the different mounts for free. I called a little over a year ago about one and they told me it would cost around $250 to ship it to my home or terminal. Still that ain't bad at all. Give em a call they might be able to help you!

Hey, not to change the subject, but would they also carry fullsized frames, like for 76 ford f-250s?

You can also call look in the back of some 4 wheel magazines and look for the phone number to Matkins. Their frames are stronger than stock. Don't know if you'll get title for it but that shouldn't be a problem. Just use the 76 registration.

Jeff's Bronco Graveyard sells new frames. Pricey. That price from Tom's is good. The Bronco Ranch is in Michigan and may have a used one available, and a whole lot closer.

What's wrong w/gussetts or (us carpenters' language) sistering w/plate? I just sold one for $200 to a guy who drove it home, 2.5 hrs (W. of Albany, NY) on a "landscaper's" utility trailer. Said $400 for one local that had been blasted/painted 8-0
