Very cool looking Bronco. How did you like the Thornbirds? I'm assuming they've been replaced already if they were at 40% a year ago. Did you ever take them offroading or anything? If so, did they handle well? I've wanted to get a set of them to replace my BFGs but I've never gotten an opinion on them.
Hey dude..I saw some pics of this truck on Photobucket and sent you a message...where the hell did you get that brush guard with the lights?...After seeing yours I've looked and looked for one but cant seem to find one anywhere...Any tips?
@borntoberebel12 I actually got the mudflaps and brackets from the Napa superstore. Theyre actually semi mudflaps haha Then I got the chrome naked ladies online on some semi accessories store. If I find the site I'll send it to ya. Thanks for the comment man!
your dual exaust didnt mess with your lift? i got talked out of duals by my mechanic. Have an 89 and not even as nice as yours, mint except single flowmaster w/ 3in.single and 33s.
Wow that beast is awesome! I actually like the mudflaps... I wouldnt call them ugly. And those thornbirds look SWEET, I'm looking to get those same 38.5s as well, how many miles did they last you?
@1999DodgeRamSport Thanks man its my baby. But anyways I'm still running those tires and have about 16,000 miles on em and probably still have 40% left so they're lasting pretty well. Just remember these tires follow grooves in the road like no ones business, especially on the freeway. lol Anyways thanks again!
Oh thats not too bad, my LTBs now have 16k and they are DONE haha. Is it bad when it follows grooves, or is it easy to control and not a big deal? Also, are they loud on the road?
Thank you. Well it definitely didnt happen overnight. lol I built it up from stock starting about 7 years ago and this is where it's at now. In the next month or two it's getting an engine rebuild and a couple "performance mods" are going to be done. Thank you very much for the comment!
Well as far as making them smaller I couldn't do much in the way of that because I guess the mudflaps have to cover the outer and inner wall of the tires and then also has to at least go halfway down the tires for it to be legal.
Well are your tires wearing funny at all? If thats the case, it could be that one of your rims is bent. Or possibly one of your u-joints could be going out if its shaking. You could try airing the tires down a bit, I know they say youre supposed to run them at 30 psi but I usually run them at 25 or 20 psi even. Lemme know what happens. Sorry it took me so long to reply, I dont go on here as often as I used to.
Thanks man, its my pride and joy. I'm going to rebuild the engine within the next month or two and do a port and polish along with throwing a bigger cam in it. Anyways thanks for the comment!
you should move the bumpers up i have a 1990 with 8 and 3 makes it look alot bigger and i did mine without buying brackets nice ride you must live where they dont use salt very clean rig
Yea I've been wanting to do that but don't you lose the strength in your bumpers and how hard is it to make brackets to raise the bumpers? Thanks a lot for the comment!!
Thanks man. I'm getting really excited for when I put a new powerplant in it. Either that or rebuild this one if it's possible. Thanks for the comment!
That's nice, i'm gonna get one from my grandpa once it's fixed for my 1st vehicle and i was looking for suggestions on what i should do with it!! white with red interior! but i like this, deffinatley thos tires and muffler!
Well one thing I can definitely tell you is if you're planning on putting a lot of money into it I would get an alarm system first. Then the sound system and exhaust are musts but if I could suggest anything, I would go with performance mods first then add stuff to make it look better. Thanks for the comment!
I have headers that run to a catalytic converter then go single to the muffler which is offbrand then splits to 2.5" duals to 3.5" tips. Thanks for the comment!
Yea the offset is -44. i'll have to see if I can find any wheels with a more negative offset. I was possibly thinking about going from a 15" wheel up to a 17. ANy thoughts??
love your bronco. How do you like your Thornbirds? how are they off roading and on the street? and will they last a while? im thinkin about gettin them for my bronco. thanks. would really appreciate your help =)
awesome bronco, not a fan of the mud flaps but since you have to do it, i guess a silhouette of a nice lady is cool haha, but the hood scoops also, not a fan but i AM a fan of big broncos and a loud exhaust and yours does it nicely
Thanks for the comment man and yea I've been going back and forth about the hood scoops. Used to like em but now I'm not so crazy about em. Anyways thanks!!
Yea I know... It's just the lame ass cops around here give ya shit if you have a truck like mine without mudflaps. I was driving my truck without em for awhile and got pulled over for not having any so I had to put some on. Thats why I have em. Not because I want to. If it was my choice I wouldn't have em.
Hey, thanks for the comment. My exhaust setup is Long tube headers that go to 3" duals with a magnaflow muffler then back out to 3" duals. Also has throttle body spacer and KN air intake. Once I get the engine rebuilt im going to do other internals like a cam, port and polish and probably bore it. Anyways thanks again for the comment! Please rate it!
Lose the stupid mudd flaps and it would look great

they are the Interco Thornbird 38.5x14.50x15 tires. Really soft compound, wouldn't recommend them for street use.

how much did those tires cost u?

nice but id get some wide rims for it
1mean76 2 years ago
Yea Im thinking about going with some 15x12's or maybe even 15x14's. Not sure yet though. Any thoughts??
mcfly69505 2 years ago
go with a 15x10 or 15x12 if you dont have 8 lug rims i wouldnt do with the 15x14 cuz there real hard on lug nuts and studs
1mean76 2 years ago
The funny thing is I already have 15x10's but my tires are so wide that they look narrow as hell huh??
mcfly69505 2 years ago
dam they do maybe you need a new offset
1mean76 2 years ago
Yea the offset is -44. i'll have to see if I can find any wheels with a more negative offset. I was possibly thinking about going from a 15" wheel up to a 17. ANy thoughts??
mcfly69505 2 years ago
i wouldnt go over 16.5 cuz any bigger then that it gets kinda hard to find tire sizes. you no
1mean76 2 years ago
Yea and i'm having a hell of a time trying to find wheels with a bigger offset... Time to switch to dana 60's or 70's huh?? lol
