Nice place to cut the 4 door 
Looks great IMO. What about a roll cage?

That looks good, If I did a chop top I think that's how I'd do it too. More pics please

Thanks
The rear window does open, and i have put Ford dana 60s under it allready! Since i have a ton of fender cutting and have to work on the rockers im going to get that done before i start on the cage,bumpers,and rocker gaurds! I also need to get another hatch so i can make a tail gate. Lots of stuff to get done before spring!

i really like how you did the hatch welded in there..looks very nice. i played with the idea of doing somthing like that with the opening window and a tail gate..with alittle pickup box(not on my X but with a first gen) would be really cool..like a prototype sport trac..lol

I will get some pic's of the front axle swap for ya!
I went with leaf springs from a scout. I put leafs under my vintage Bronc and they worked great so thats why i did the same on the Explorer. The Bronc would out Flex a James Duff system and leafs were a ton cheeper and made the Dana 60 install a ton easer!
Here is a pic of my last project that i sold this January!

If you do the tube work yourself you got skills. Love the Bronco. Keep it up!
Do you get a discount on those wheels or what?

Yes, I agree. Please start over...but instead of using an EB it would be much better to use a 93 Sport in Lawrenceville, GA. hint hint410Fortune said:

You dont like the wheels! There recentered hummer double bead locks. I have run them for a while and didnt want to sell them with the bronc.
