Now that's a nice truck for sure. I wish I had a ZF5 for my ford. Them ole 4 speeds with the granny gear just can't keep up with time anymore. Have you done a solid axle swap yet? I've heard them IFS axles are junk.

Its still got the IFS, depending one what you do with the truck the Twin Traction Beam axles can be a hinder or a positive. Early on I chose a route of using it for a benefit. The TTB IFS is just terrible for a trail crawler rig, but the truck is too big to do that well IMO anyways. but they are amazing for wheel travel and durability for a IFS axle. I got 12" front and wheel travel yet it sits as high as my buddys 96 F250 stock with a camper and a powerstroke in it. ZF5 was just one of the best things I couldve ever done, friggin awesome jammin gears
I lucked out on my visor, paid $85 for it found at a small junkyard
Only seen a black SVT lightning Bronco on youtube, thats all. I believe it was one of the two that ford built

Ive seen the svt too but the svo looked exactly like a regular one excpet for a few decals it was a 5.0 with a 5 speed and munual transfer case from the factory it would do 95 mph in 3rd gear lol we had it at about 125 mph once

my dad has a '92 f-250 custom, its basicly the same thing as a bronco, seeing as they both use the same chassis. it has the I-6 in it, only 300 were made.

I'd like to have a 78 bronco with a 6.9L diesel swapped in. They where the only full sized broncos that had a solid axle.
