Big Blue is getting upgrades. Here’s what she will look like in 2 weeks.
I purchased the MTO DV8 bumpers and the app did not have that option.

Two speed. Original everything. Was gonna be a restoration project until the Big Bend arrived…

Schwinn made solid bikes way back when-I still have my 10-speed Varsity, which the Bronco will be taking on some adventures this summer.
My brother still has our ('our' because we handed down everything) 2 speed 26 inch Schwinn that I delivered papers off of.

On Friday I had a Sasquatch rims, 35" Toyo AT III tires , a Zone 2" lift and Rough Country tail light extender installed. Really happy with how it came out.

Interestingly the installer wouldn't remove the crash bars because he wasn't allowed to remove safety components. The tires barely rub if I turn them all the way. So, I may just remove the crash bars myself. Or I may install some tapered crash bars from 4Wheelparts that do leave room for 35" tires. Has anyone tried them?

Also I think I'll add running boards. Thinking of either GoRhino RB20's or RB20 Slim running boards. Does anyone have pics with either of those?

HI! My BB is being build next month. I am planning to put Toyo ATIII 35 12.50 r17 on my stock wheels. I also have a Zone 2" lift to be installed. How has yours been? Any issues? My tire guy said he would not remove crash bars because the scrubbing so so slight on full turn. True? Thanks!

No issues at all with the Toyos. I put them on second hand Sasquatch rims, so it is a little different than your situation, but they've been great - love the ride and the look. No issues with the Zone lift either. My guy said he wasn't allowed to remove the crash bars and there was some rubbing at a full turn, so I ordered 4 Wheel Parts tapered crash bars. They did the trick, no rubbing. I also used a Rough Country tail light extender to get the brake light to fit easily over the 35" spare. And finally, I'm 5' 10". After I added the lift and Toyo 35's, I ordered Go Rhino RB 20 Slim running boards to make it easier to get in and to open and close my soft top. They're great and the Slim ones have plenty of step without being overwhelmingly big. Really happy with all my changes.

Took our 2-door MT Big Bend on its first 1000 mile road trip, to Rocky Mount, VA and western PA. Lots of mountains, fun steep twisty roads, running the AC, and loaded, we still averaged over 21 mpg, which I’m happy with. The Bronco’s trip calculator reports about 1 mpg higher than my actual real-world numbers, but no big deal. Can’t wait to go on another adventure!

No issues with the 35’s? I want to do 37s but I’m reading the 3:73 will create problems. But looks really good
You ha e the wrong poster, I'm on stock wheels.

Okay sick! I have a timeline now for when to expect my pic. I've had mine since August 3rd. Only two more months to go.
