Re: Crawlercreations build thread finally!
Drivers side is done! Went twice as fast as the passengers side! I put the doors back on to see my seat fitment...it is comfy! Still have to narrow the grill, tailgate, windshield, windshield frame, build new bumpers, build a new core support, build new rock sliders and build my new cage! A lot to do but I am just taking it one day at a time...going to be worth it in the end!

Re: Crawlercreations build thread finally!
Doesn't get any cooler than that! Are you going to make a tube front sides and core support to hang your fenders, grill, etc. like Dnewman's?

Re: Crawlercreations build thread finally!
I got a little more done today. Not a lot but it looks like it! I loosely installed the front clip after narrowing and got one of my new rock sliders installed.

Re: Crawlercreations build thread finally!
Keep in mind, these are stock early bronco axles with no wheel spacers on standard 3.5" backspace wheels in a 9" wide flavor. Looks like full widths plus to me but allows me to fit in tight places easily!

Re: Crawlercreations build thread finally!
Very cool. I'd be curious to know how much weight your truck is losing by going with the narrower body, sliders, cage, etc. I bet it'll drop your CG down a bit.

Re: Crawlercreations build thread finally!
No updates, just shocked that it has been 3 years to the date since I drove my bronco for the first time after narrowing it!

Re: Crawlercreations build thread finally!
Still cool! But I do think you need to put the icing on the cake so to speak!
