Vintage 1974 Ford Bronco: Custom Roll Cage, Plate Bumper, + Suspension Upgrades

It's been awhile since we shared a project on here! Just have had our nose down working to bring your visions to life. This customer brought in a Vintage 1974 Ford Bronco that he was ready to beef up for wheeling trips with his kids.

Here's all the specs we fabricated:


Roll Cage & Sliders:
  • 6 point family-friendly cage tied into a 4 point engine cage through the firewall, all tied directly into the frame
  • Custom rectangular tube sliders
Front Axle/Suspension:
  • King pin shaved Dana 60 and custom truss
  • Triangulated 3-link with 14" travel ADS 2.5" coil overs and 2" hydraulic bump stops
  • PSC hydro assist
Rear Axle/Suspension:
  • Shaved 14 bolt with double triangulated 4 link and custom truss
  • 16" travel ADS 2.5" coil overs and 2" hydraulic bump stops
  • Anti-rock rear sway bar
Rear Plated Bumper: (note: we did not build the front bumper/stinger)
  • 3/16" plate bumper with hitch, D-ring tabs, high lift points, and tire/cooler swing out
    Aluminum Dash:
    • By bringing the dash out closer to the steering wheel, it allows the customer to reach any switches while belted in. 
    • We moved the steering column in line with the driver's seat with a custom tilt column. 

     

    The customer will button up the build and do the lights, gauges, wiring, fender flares, etc. himself! Can't wait to see this rig out off-roading. It sure is going to handle everything he encounters.
