any body know the bearing size for the front stub ? i order a kit but wanna see if i can find two local ?

Re: new bronco
 

Nice find. Color looks good too. Inner bearing should be 15x10mm and outer is 12x6mm.

Re: new bronco
 

thanks for the help. ya its hard to tell but its pure white on tbe top with a pearlish white on bottom. who ever painted it did a pretty good job .

slow day at work so messed with the truck.Got the front locked up and the bearings installed.Switched some stuff in the back of the truck .Lower links are gone and shocks now has axial links and front rustler shocks with home made mounts .Finally cut the brick off and started on my bumper its about half way done still need to finish the lower brace skid part . Its made out of 1\4 brake line and is all welded togther . gonna post pics in a min

Okay I searched quick couldn't really find what I was looking for. I've done most common things to the truck 4 link skids shocks lift etc. I've had 4x4 trucks since I've been driving. Mostly ford's alot of which were ttb trucks . Has an one cut the arms and changed them or made there own ? I've made shock hoops that would allow for 90mm front shocks. I'm thinking about making arms stock length but are turned down. Would help travel and height .

Bought a set of slick rock wheels and tires they look pretty good are only maybe 1/2 in taller than the stick wheels plus there interco branded
