Here are some pics of the mods I've done to my new Mangler. Most of them
are cosmetic, but I did follow the write up done
by Kevin Garrett to change
the open rear differential to a full spool which works awesome. Besides the
obvious change in color scheme, I also did a few mods to the body. The obvious
ones are that I removed the superfluous lower front and rear bumpers and removed
the doors and running boards. Somewhat less obvious is the chunk of material
removed from the front of the chassis (where the lower front bumper mounted) and
the bobbing of the front bumper and removal of the fog lights.
I cleaned off the flame stickers by hand and then wiped the sticky residue
off with WD40 which worked well. I first put on lots
of coats of primer
because it kept shrinking and cracking. It kind of helps match my real Broncos
"distressed" look.
The piece de resistance of the project are the Bronco scripts. Anyone know
where I got them? Heh, heh, heh
This is probably as close as I'm going to get for having coil over shocks on
one of my Broncos for a while.
It's a sickness. What can I say?
