Details

This 1974 Ford Bronco is a no-expense-spared build. Under the hood is a fuel-injected 5.0-liter Coyote V8 engine paired to a Ford 6R80 6-speed automatic transmission mated to an Atlas II transfer case to generate 87:1 crawl gearing. The torque gets sent to a pair of Currie Dana 44 axles with ARB locking differentials, the forward of which is a high-pinion unit. The Bronco flex is handled by a triangulated 4-link suspension that incorporates 12-inch travel with 2.5-inch King coilovers and 12-inch Stroke emulsion shocks. Additionally, the Bronco features radius arms with Panhard bar and rear shock mounts with sway bar mount. The Bronco turns with ease thanks to a heavy-duty steering assembly and 14.1 power steering box, with Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes and Wilwood Hydro-Boost keeping speeds down when needed. Other highlights include a custom exhaust system with ceramic-coated MagnaFlow mufflers and a 23-gallon stainless-steel gas tank. Gray paint adorns the body and undercarriage. Seats, dash pad, door panels, rear panels and the console have been given a full Saddle Brown Mercedes-Benz leather treatment, with a unique three-layer custom carpet with Chilewich textile and sound Heatshield insulation pad all over the Bronco floors and body. Dakota-Digital RTX gauges can be found inside along with electric windows and locks, AMP Research Running automatic boards, Safecraft fire extinguisher and four retractable seat belts. The reflective-coated architectural gray tinted glass is further complemented by Bronze 18-inch Method wheels. Additionally, the Bronco features a 6-point custom roll cage and Restomod Air custom air conditioning with climate control. It has Audio Car Play with reverse camera, Bluetooth and navigation. The truck features a 22-circuit Kwik Wire harness. The 'BR Warrior' rides on 33x12.50/R18/LT TOYO M/T Open Country tires. JW Speaker Evolution headlights adorn the front of the Bronco as well as a custom bumper from ProtoFab with a 15.5k Smittybilt winch and Rigid fog lights. Lastly, the rear features a custom bumper with a massive swing spare tire and Putco bar light.
