    When I had my pre taco, someone told me you could run cheby hubs/outers or something on the EB 44. The stock "C" style arms from the bronco are easy to extend and already setup for coils which means has a beefy track bar as well. I do know the EB is the same as the ranger and the 8.8 exploder is used n 1st gens. My guess is they are really close in width.

    My cousin does all the racing, I was my into freestyle riding and tricks. One you jump a bike you can never really put them down hahaha. And I don't think that will be a good idea finding Someone that's crazier then me out there will just make me wanna do the same thing he is doing and I'll end up back at sharp ahhha. I'll still end up riding just cruising though no more jumps tricks or anything like that. I'm still thinking about sellin my. 250 and dumping money into my back .

    Anyone down for a trade haha I need uca and Lca and a new shock set up for my wife's truck. I think I just made up my mind on selling it :) this injury really took a lot out of me and 3MM higher i would of been paralyzed from waist down.

    You know what gary ?? You just unofficially volunteered yourself to help me dick this thing out, pretty much evrything you've said is scratching me where i itch dude.. serious... These opinions i get from othersare great but they think in terms of $$ not being an object, they have me buying dual case marlins /tri star axles vertical high pinion mega $$$ equip. which it'd be great but that just isn't going to happen, I've always liked the old Bronco setup w/coils, pretty rock solid for the most part, hell I never had an issue with the old solid axle '83 (D44 IIRC) on leafs, but def get more articulation, I've never really been a desert mob kinda guy so I'll just go play on the big rocks by myself...haha

    Straight axle and coils will do some work at speed. lol. The coil buckets are the hardest thing. If a big bitch bronco bucket would fit they have factory dual shocks and you can get some pretty cheap replacement parts for them also. If you move your bucket up you can get good numbers without high ride height. Swing over this weekend and we'll look at what you have going on.

    I had a 330 hp 302 with 35s on my D44. Never had a problem, don't think your 3.4 will break it.

    I think the same way then I end up picturing how cool it will look and and much fun I'll have and that always wins over messing the truck up haha. Don't ask why. Still I've an. 08 single cab with 80,000 so if it goes I'll buy a v6 access cab 6 speed.

    A 4.0 ranger/explorer weighs 20 lbs less than a 3.4 toyota. A 302 is actually about the same or a hair less than your motor. I think 302 bronco springs will work nice. The james duff progressive spring is a crawling spring and is soft as hell. They make shocks also.

    http://www.jamesduff.com/eb/suspension_components.html

    I really think you could use these parts for springs and shocks. You might go coilovers later, but get is rolling first.

    Looks like a 77 4wd cheby hub and rotor will convert the ford to 6lug

    bronco looks to be 59.5" Your yota is either 58.5 or 60.
