Build Thread Lost Jr’s TRX4 Bronco restoration

[Lostinthewoods86]

Been planning this project for a while now, so here we go!

First task, find the truck

It’s somewhere under all the mud.

Gonna start the disassembly and cleaning today.

How you like them tires? I'm mounting the same ones in my 10.2. Hoping to hit the mud spa soon.

They obviously do a tremendous job of slinging mud

They do do well in the mud . The foams that come with em are pretty soft.

They won’t be going back on this one though. Kinda going for a scale ish build so I’m thinking about the bfg krawlers on it.

So the ocd has hit. Soon you'll need led lights and mirrors, then wipers and license plates. I've been there. You never check out.

I've been thinking of those tires too but dint have the funds yet.

I see room for more storage on those side window boxes

And you're gonna need a trailer behind it to pull this guy. And yes, it's 1/10

Only took a year to finish tearing this thing down and cleaning it .

Now we on to assembly and discovery . Need to find the rest of the stuff that was ordered and still need to grab a few things that weren’t.

 

[Lostinthewoods86]

Some of the boring parts together

Need to cut the pan hard mount off the last inner fender for the aluminum mount to go in place.

 

[Lostinthewoods86]

New pan hard mount in place

Front bumper and winch done while we were there

 

[Doom!]

[Lostinthewoods86]

Fusion pro out, axe system in

[Mrgoodwrench35]

I really like the axe system. Let us know what you think of it.
