2-Door WILDTRAK ON 37'S, BEADLOCKS, & RPG LIFT

[SIXMIL]

Looks very nice. We will have a very similar build.
I couldn't stand the way the reinforcement bracket looked, so I had the powder coat stripped off and painted it to match. Hopefully it will make the bracket blend in more.

Thought i would post the first pics to the start of my build. So far i have installed 37x12.5x17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on a set of Black Rhino Primm Beadlock wheels with a 0 offset. I also installed the RPG 2.25" Perch Collar lift. It raises the front 2.2" and the rear 1.2"". The crash bars are removed and i have absolutely no rubbing issues at all. I added the Rough Country 3rd brake light extension and tailgate reinforcement brackets. I also added the classic bronco script badges.

Last week i put the order in for the ADD Bomber front Bumper with the Rigid 360 series lights(3-4 month lead time). Since the lead times are so long for coil overs i decided i didn't want to wait so that's why i got the RPG collar lift. Rides great! Will end up replacing that with a coilover kit at a later date. So far i am in love with the Bronco and so happy i did the 2 door. Wanted it to match my 73 a bit more.

Looks amazing and is possible I will choose same wheel except "fake" bead Primm. Also tossing up idea of matching fake bead color to my EG. Pretty sure I'm doing 35s tho (Toyo M/T)

Wow, that looks fantastic. I am definitely going to steal your idea and do the same. Thanks for sharing.

Finally got the Rock Slide Engineering electric steps on and they are great! Also added the MagnaFlow exhaust and gave it just the right amount of sound upgrade.

A thing of beauty! Are you considering swapping out those RPG collar lifts for something else (besides coilovers I mean)? I thought I might've seen you post something along those lines...

Are you planning on upgrading tie rods, steering linkages, CV?

Im waiting for a set of Fox or King Coilovers so ill leave it as it is until then. My dad got the RPG Tie Rods so ill wait to see how they hold up. There just isnt many options for those just yet.

Well Done on both!!! 37"s just balance the look of the 2dr. Have to admit.... a bit jealous of the garage! Space, headroom and nicely done!!!

Just goes to show.... Team 2 door Rocks!!!!

Did you have to do any realignment after installing the perch collars?

Spare tire relocation “only” because you have 37s…right?

Ok got question. With 37s, perch lift…have you taken on trails beyond smooth dirt/gravel and if so, during articulation/etc do the 37s rub?
