Cool, Which kit is it? I see the 4.5 Super flex system on their site.  how much you want for it and what all does it need other than the u bolts? This kit shows shocks with it; are these with the one you have?

It is a 5.5, I misspoke earlier.  It has never been installed.

http://shop.broncograveyard.com/55-Ultra-Deluxe-Kit-1976-77/productinfo/13935/

missing from this kit:
drop trac-bar bracket
u-bolts, I have 4, but I'm not sure they are the correct length.
I'm not certain that all of the bushings are accounted for. I have the majority, and the c-bushings, but have not checked to see what is there or not.

I have verified that I have the rest of it.
front coils
rear leafs
drop pitman
adjustable trac-bar
front/rear extended brake lines
radius arm drop brackets
blocks with built in angle adjustment, I ran these for about 2 months, so they aren't shiny any more
c-bushings
radius arm end bushings


so it looks like the only thing I KNOW you will need to buy is the trac-bar drop bracket, $58.

I think $500 is fair, considering what is missing.

Sounds good to me as I want to run 35s are larger eventually so, yes, I will take it.  only problem is , as some of my former employees used to say, "I am waiting on my monies to get right"....LOL.  I will know something in a couple weeks I would think.

replaced the battery and she fired right up!  Back in business.  Going to reinstall the front driveshaft tonight and take the top off tonight or tomorrow.

popped the top yesterday.  I don't think I'll ever use a hard top again, unless it is pristine.  Too much work, effort and risk in removal/install, I'd sooner pay the $600 for a Rampage.

I'll never remove my hard top, it is way to much trouble.

is it the lifting it off? just fabricate a winch over head to lift off and store...one man operation within minutes in that case.  the 'jeep' kit is about 300 bucks online - only question is how much overhead room you have to anchor the pulley support etc..

I've got no room that I'm willing to sacrifice in the garage ceiling.  I stored it over the boat in the carport in the back yard.  I used some rope, a ladder, two 2x4s, and an ratchet strap to get it up and keep it there.  I had planned to concoct a lift using a come-along, but then I started thinking and headed down the more difficult path.

Gary or Blair, if you have some time in the next few days, could you stop by after work to take my bronco for a spin.  I've still got a stumble in drive when warm, no stumble in 2 or 1, only drive and in at all gears.  Also, wouldn't mind a second opinion on handling and overall roadworthiness.
