Scary lifted 1980 bronco

1985 Bronco

This got posted on FSB. Besides the insane and poorly done lift, it actually looks like a decent truck.

There was another thread posted a year ago on that truck, the guy bought it like that, and has apparently been driving it for a year with the lift in it.

Very clever to lift a truck 13" and still retain all of the stock suspension components...haha.

I'd like to see what was done with the pitman arm;). Must have welded some square tubing in there too huh?

That thing would not be road legal here. It's not to say that it wouldn't end up on the road still...if you had a friend that would put an MVI sticker on it, and if you told your insurance company it was not modified, then sure...but god help you if you were ever in a wreck with it.

He is pretty emphatic about a number of things, including it isn't dependable nor your daily driver.  I think I'd give it a miss.

How about the fact that he just got done with it, time to move on. What's done about that truck? The interior ?? certainly not. The rust ? certainly not . .  some people have a strange way of seeing things.
