John i'll check some out at the J-yard. I should get some anyways so they line up better with my 95 tailgate. But it really doesnt bother me since its going to be a trail truck

Before i put gas in the tank and hook the lines up i think i might order the shackle flip kit for the rear while i can still remove the tank easy to get at the rivets holding the stock ones on.

Like I said, I don't really know why 87-91 tails bother me, but they do.

Ha, my Bronco looks smaller and its got a bigger lift... the lack of bumpers may be what causes that illusion.

Cool Idea with the gas tank swap.

thanks, yeah that and the cut fenders. Progress has been slow but it will be a winter project to work on. we are building an extra garage bay that will be heated so it will make a great space for it, or the ranger heh

well i sold it. i wanted to keep my projects to the new bike and go back to working on my ranger. The ranger needs some work and i think i want to start mod'n it again. It was hard to let it go but i got a good price for it. I sold it to a couple guys who really liked it and made a pefect project for them so that was good. I will get another bronco in the future but i think i'm stuck on getn an early bronco next.

Kind of sad to hear... but at least you haven't sold the Ranger yet. I think you should go B2 for your next project. Those things look awesome jacked up.

Too bad. It looked like it was turning out nice.

What do you have planned for the Ranger?

That sux man. I personally can't see letting my FSB go (unless I have another FSB lined up). I love those things.
