I still cant beleive she drove off in that shit with street tires...for fuck sake, their not even all terrain tires...
    Sounds like she needs some mud tires and a locker. I bought mine a KFX700 because I figured wit a auto she could go tinker around with me. First time we went and rode she got off grinning and said WTF have I been missing all my life. LOL Oh and I have been told that "Her" four wheeler we are never selling. PFFT she should know me better then that. It is still in the garage though.

I need to see if he can get the correct speedo gear now that I am thinking about it. I realized I was hauling ass at 60 the other day.
    They love 4:88's :biggrin:

LOL I had a 5k budget for two beaters when I bought this so I still have some to work on mods. and upgrades if I dont buy a second toy which is the route I am leaning. Depends if I go apeshit on the tranny build.
    Are you staying with the 302? If so I would just put the tranny back in working order. No sense in building a 700hp tranny when you're luck to get 200hp out of the 5.0.

    Did you get the regular top with it? If not that sucks.

    I didn't see if you mentioned it, but does it have gears? I assume those are 33's on it?

    I would love to have a soft top for mine but don't want to fork over the cash for one.

Depends if I go apeshit on the tranny build, guy said 800.00 for stock if nothings snapped and up to 1600 or so with it built to the hilt.

    Me and pops are gonna paint it back blue but with some metallic in it. Nice auto start alarm, pre runner bumper and winch, and a nice system. I had a 90 blazer at one point with 2 18's in the hatch but I think now days thats a little bit of overkill. LOL I even thought about the fiberglasss one piece but not abig fan of the flares. Oh and maybe some ARBs later.

    I know nothing about these motors but may do a few basic mods. Want to keep it stock for the most part with basic bolt ons. It runs pretty damn good now.

    All over the Graveyard and the Bronco sight you posted Chili. Thanks

    Well to my delight the worst transmission shop ever has new owners that came highly recomended and is in my town. It used to be all pro a few years ago but now it is I35 Transmission and the guy sounds like he knows his stuff. I called Mike and he said at least two weeks plus he is in BFE from me. This place will have it ready tommorrow. Its a guy and his son and his son is on here every now and again. They have a streetrod shop in Midlothian and his dad knows a lot of the people my dad runs around with street rod wise. Said he has built them for 800HP cars before no problem. What I really like is he told me when he got it out this afternoon he would call me to come look and we could go over what hard parts it needed and any upgrades like servo, clutches etc if I wanted them. I know just enough about transmissions to know when someone knows there shit usually. I told him to get his ass on here and become a sponser. LOL His dad said he use to build TQ convertors for Mike years ago.

    Cool deal.. You definitely got your $2,000 worth, even knowing you need to get transmission work. For shit like molding and window motors, etc check out broncograveyard.com.
