OUCH!! That one front strut looks like it took a hell of a hit! I'm building a 79 with 14s on it. You must be running 16s with the wheel travel you mentioned.
I'd be interested in seeing the fab work involved to get the ORIs in the Bronco.
Nice work on that engine too

Fronts are done, along with Braptor arms...16"+ travel front and rear.
Next on the to do list is V8 install.

We never got them here in the USA, though in Central and South America, you see the LWB Samurais running around with half cabs.

Yes all the goat modes work perfectly, and lockers and sway bar disco.... I only have DTC codes for missing exhaust valves still, but those will get turned off with a tuner very soon.That looks awesome!! The 7.3 Braptor was my favorite Bronco engine swap but this takes the cake! Well done!

BMB, ever seen a Defender 90 in a SWB pickup? I never had. I've seen a few different LWB models, but not a SWB.
My previous rig. The thing was a hoot...I miss it.BMB, ever seen a Defender 90 in a SWB pickup? I never had. I've seen a few different LWB models, but not a SWB.

Not very common state-side...I imported it from GB. It was diesel to boot. The part I miss the most is it was 100% analog, could fix just about anything with a handful of tools.
I can't believe you did that to a first edition! with that being said, it is awesome, and many people out there would've loved to see this half cab as an option!
All I see are 4 wheels and some rock rails!!BMB, ever seen a Defender 90 in a SWB pickup? I never had. I've seen a few different LWB models, but not a SWB.
