Those tinted windows look at home on a black jeep.

YEP, I took the front and rear diffs out of a full size Bronco. The guy I bought them from gave me all the coil buckets and shock towers.
The radius arms mounted right up. BDS 4 inch lift springs

Got to spend some time in the garage with the cutoff wheel.

Really diggin that IC setup Fred. Actually looks pretty jeep freindly.


If you end up looking for a bit more jam, and or cooling, I just did stage 2 snow performance meth inj on my 95. Plumbed it into my 99 intercooler I did a while back.

I definately recommend it for temps and power. Its a pretty affordable addition and really makes a difference. I pulled about 300 degrees out, got a couple pounds of boost out of it, and got quicker spool up with the turbo. All while running 90% water in the tank.

Thanks Billy, I didn't loose as much of the radiator support as I thought i was going to.

The IC is an ebay special. I've now got about 200 miles of 2.5 and 3 inch aluminum ducting for it. I only needed 2 pieces and a 6 inch chunk. ( the 3 inch will make a wicked snorkle, once I get the air filter box figured out.
 I'll keep the meth injection in mind, right now all I'm wanting is to fire the pig. Everything I've done lately I've had to do twice so it's taking me 3 times as long

Pretty much finished with the intercooler setup, just have to finalize clocking the turbo.
I'm trying to fit an airbox on the right side where the battery was located.
I've got a couple of airboxs, one out of a cryco 300 and the other out of a crown vic.
The 300 box looks like it may fit better.
I'm going to stack 2 batteries on the left side with plans to install a winch.
I could have moved the engine back a bit tight on the front loose in the rear ;).
