Engine :Rebuilt 351M with 600cfm 4 barrel Edelbrock Performer carburetor and intake manifold
Drivetrain :Future 1-ton Detroit locked axles and 1350 CV drive shafts
Transmission :no info
VIN :no info
1978 F150 Ranger with 6.5 inch Skyjacker/Superlift combination suspension lift with a 3 inch Performance Accessories body lift. 38.5x14.5x15 Super Swamper Sx tires on 15x10 American Racing Outlaw I wheels. Warn winch, dual batteries,...
This is my first vehicle, I bought it stock back in high school. I did all the work in my driveway with hand tools. This is one of many 1973-1979 era fullsize Ford pick-ups and Broncos I plan to build, wheel, and collect.
Comments: Yeah, I made the bumper brackets out of 1/4" steel plate, cut with a plasma cutter, and welded to the inside of the frame rails. But you could just cut the ends of your frame rails off and weld them up higher, if you plan on keeping your stock bumper, instead of making new brackets.
Comments: Hey nice truck. I have a truck just like yours. I am currently working on repairing the rust. I was wondering if you could possibly tell me the specs and materials that you used to make the bumper
Comments: I drove past it and noticed it sitting in a field on a horse ranch...so I turned around then I bought it from this Mexican for $90...some say he got the better end of the deal...but I say la cucaracha to that!
Comments: Hey, nice truck man! I have a 79 shortbed 4x4 and was wondering if that is an original non-ac cab or did you remove the ac box from the firewall? If you removed it yourself, what was involved/ was it difficult?
Comments: hey sweet truck i was wonedring if you could send me the material and info that you used to make the bumper email is lopezrene75@yahoo.com
thanks
