Ride Description
350 Chevy V-8, 700r4 automatic, Bronco Dana 20 transfer case, RR Dana 44 front end with 4.56 gears and a limited slip, ford 9" large bearing rear end with 4.56 gears and a
Detroit locker, disc breaks front and rear, power breaks from a 1994 Mustang GT, be-cool aluminum radiator,
Camero tilt steering column, Meyers steel hard top.
I fabricated all of the brackets from 4x4 box tubing for the suspension. the rear is a 3 link with wrangler coil springs. the front is a 4-link with shortened wrangler coils and a sprit car sway bar set up. when I first built it I could not safely drive it down the street. the suspension was too soft. the sway bar fixed all of that. It now cruises down the freeway at a comfortable 75 mph.
The tires are 38" Parnelli Jones dirt grips on 15x12 Micky Thompson rims. these are great tires and highly
recommend them.
