Sloth

I decided to do a build thread for my bronco. I call it sloth because it reminds me of the big retard from the goonies.

and rims


I want to make this a truck that i can wheel all day and drive home. I won't go any bigger than 35's because the axles really can't handle it.

Nice, is that bumper prefab or custom?

a guy from fullsizebronco.com built it for me. I designed it and he built it.

The neon seats kick ass that's what I have in my trail rig.

Yeah, i found them in a junkyard already pulled from the car. I got them for $20 each

That definitely needs to be on this page more than once. :gigem:

Hell, I may quote it again later just for ****s and giggles. :flipoff2:

Nice truck. Did the fenders rust away or were they cut?

they rusted away and then i cut them

1. Fix all the broken crap
-front driver u-joint
-front axle seals (i'll need help with this, i have no idea what to do here)
-new brake drums
-re bed-line interior
-heater
-new hubs, warn premiums
2. bodywork including:
-installing quarters
-cheap paint, all white
3. Full cage
4. 3g alt and optima 6 pack battey
5. winch
6. rear bumper with spare tire and hi-lift carrier
7. Detroit or arb rear locker
8. limited slip front
9. rock sliders

I have heard nothing but bad about the ARB's for the 9in.

Are there any good selectables for the 9inch?

what do you hear about 9" arbs?

There are many threads on FSB about them breaking. Hasn't Ryan had quite a few problems too?


I would suggest a full Detroit if still DD it, or a Spool if it becomes a toy.

i had a lot of trouble with my d-30 and amc-20 arb. Don't have one now. Spool in the 9" and welded d-44.
