Sitting on its own weight in the rear! All new brakes, axles, bearings and seals. Also bent new hard line and replaced both rubber lines on the rear axle. Still need to bolt on the shocks and hook the rear rubber line to the hard line on the frame. Getting closer. My front axle should be back this week.

Are there many people building the bronco 2? I haven't seen one in a while. I like where you are going on this one.

Hahahaha, no there aren't. But like everything they have gotten expensive. We are trying our best to knock the ugly off this one hahaha
 
Alright, the return of nobody's favorite build!! Finally got the front axle back from the shop that was putting the gears in it. I have a stack of parts ready for mock up!!

I have not seen one for some time either. Same as early S10. Keep those photos coming LB. [cl

Oh they're still around. The price on them have actually gone up which is kind of crazy because they are mid-80s plastic junk. I started mocking out front suspension pieces under this one last night but did not get any pictures. I will get some as soon as I actually make some progress
