Thanks guys! Here's a whole thread on the build up of the bed
FullSizeBronco.com - 78 - 96 Ford Bronco offroad club, forums, tech, installs

My gf's uncle and I did the whole paint job with John Deere paint for like $80. It takes a damn good picture but when you get up close you can tell it's not show quality but it's good enough for a woods truck!

I'd love to know how you did the camo pattern on that. I've got a small boat that I would like to do that to (in different camo colors). That would give me some practice before I attempt to paint my truck.

I'm positive they never offered that gear ratio in the rear, only 3.55 and 4.10. Which can be identified by the Axle code on the white sticker in the door jam
Your right on about the gears...as you can see i corrected my sig to 4:10. my *******

The pattern was all freehanded. He is a pretty good painter, I just followed him around and filled in the outlines.

If you actually took those pics in mid-February then I don't know where you live but you shouldn't even bother finding a replacement for that 2WD daily driver unless you want to use it offroad...

P.S. Nice truck, as usual.
