Any idea what year those landcruiser wipers are off of? That is very nice and may need to replace my vacuum stuff.

You didn't think he got 10,000 posts by being Mr. Efficient Poster did you? ;D

Nice ideas in this thread. trlblazr, I'm going to have to find out what kind of beer you like so when I just randomly show up at your garage to drool it won't be so awkward. ;D

Jon, I would be honored to tip a few back with you and talk EBs, and I will buy;)

Landcruiser wiper mod, thanks.

Fathom,
Thanks for the Landcrusier wiper mod photos! I've had those on my Bronco since I bought it 6 years ago and never know what they were.

Seems like the entire bronco has been a fabrication, but most recent addition is the cage:

it will be prepped and painted soon...

Here are a few of my fabrications. I made a sliding storage tray for under the drivers seat. I also made a tunnel cover to cover up the linkage of the gear banger style shifter. I also made my own gear banger shifter(with an assist from Madgyver) I made my spare tire carrier and an attachment that allows it to be abjustable in both height and depth so that if in the future I change my tire combination I don't have to rebuilt my carrier. Also completely fabricated my bumpers. The last two are of my removable sterring wheel and fabricated column, and my fold down dash panels.

I made it not so much to be removable but to be adjustable. I'm running 35x15 tires right now but if 3 or 4 years from now I want to change to 37's or 33's or go to a narrower tire all I have to do is take it loose and drill 2 new holes and the new spare will sit just like the current tire. I have the tire set to where it is supported by the upright piece of the carrier. The adjustment piece has 5/8 bolts through it not pins.

Not much, but I like them. I took some speakers and put them into cheapo light enclosures so I could have some noise makers in the buggy.
