Flem graduated in May...kinda.
Can't you run all the stock 350 stuff? What do you need flem for?
after that comment, tommy you will not be getting you key back, i now own another bronco!!!!
Ok, I am biting my tongue here, what I meant is that a ford efi setup will not be economically feasable because that would require efi heads, new fuel lines etc.
Yes tbi is fuel injection but I thought it was different being a low pressure system that injects from one place rather than injectors at each cylinder.
injects. fuel. according to an electronic trigger.
google TPI, MPFI, CPI...and TBI :D
Hot Beef
you loose!
This thread has gone to ****! One noob comment and i am getting torched
I'm not going to pull a blanken**** and delete everyone's posts because they insult me. Thats Ghey
no your not..
you're
I don't like this Rockwell idea. I think you should make this this a cruiser, ala, Less Nasty.
1) TBI, fix leaks, make drivetrain respectable.
2) Proper tire/lift. The truck looks too high for 35s. How much lift are you running? If 4", plus those nasty cut fenders, then it needs 37s. If it is 6", then you need 39-40" Sell those mud grapplers and buy something good. Level it out. Isn't it a little taller in the rear?
3)Keep 44/9". Or swap in a 10.25" and find some used 8 lug outers for the 44.
4)Remove that super ****ing gay prerunner bar and throw it in the trash.
5)Find a DD.

Come get this one, then you can have one for the street and one for the trails.
I looked at it a little today. Looks like you only cut the rear fenders? Can a 78/79 clear 37s with only 4"? I bet it could up front with minimal trimming, and it would fill out the rear fenderwell better.
You can do wontons, just more $$.
I thought the prerunner thing was just a bar. It is less gay then I thought but there is really nothing prerunner about a 79 Ford. I would just use that base you have and mount a winch on it, maybe run some tube out to the side to protect the grill.
Something to consider, as long as you do not lock the front and you are not an arse, you can run 38's pretty safely in a D44. 38's are pretty big, granted a front locker makes a huge difference, but you can have a lot of fun with a locked 9" or sterling and open front for little cash.
I'm running 37's and 6 inchs with no trimming, FYI. Can we just copy/paste the big nasty thread in here to save Tommy some time!!
no
I like that bumper, it's not going away. I think it looks good and it's built to have a winch put on it. It's not an off the shelf part, i designed it and someone built it for me.
When you go to one tons leafs will be much easier and cheaper to swap in. I liked the way the coils performned, but for the added cost and pain of setup I would run leafs.
**** leafs on the front of these trucks, cooks was a bitch trying to keep it low and still have room for steering. Coils are already there, just gotta put a new axle in there, simple tommy!
I'll pay for the beer food and nos for some help:gigem:
I plan on running coils because I already have them.
Tell me if this is right. I'll need
1. fab brackets for the coils/shocks
2. weld on c's
3. extend my radius arms and put heim joints on the end
So what do you want with this exactly? I am confused why a pre-runner bumper and rockwells are in the same thread. :confused2
to tell you the truth, when i first bought the truck i wanted to make it into a class 3 baja truck. I have gone back and forth with this idea for years and sometimes it comes back to me. (just ask sharpe and ed:flipoff2:) yes the bumper was designed to look like the moss brother's but it really isn't designed to be for prerunning
1. it's not lightweight, the plate is 1/4" steel
2. it's designed to be strong enough for a winch
3. does it really look that different from John's bumper? I could make the stinger higher and it would serve the same purpose

yeah, I was just talking about the coils
i think john is just intimidated by my truck. he's worried that when i have one tons his truck will have some competition:flipoff2:............and it's a 79 so it has double the sexiness:D
