Man that sounds awesome. You should do a video documentation of your trip, In the Bronco you will be able to reach all the cool places.

Man I got long on that. Sorry.
Iv been looming at some campers and they are all to fancy for me.  I think I want one to put in and out taking advantage of the removable top.  Will make it out of aluminum.  And very basic.  Also thinking about a v6 with auto.

Yea it was a trip of a lifetime.  It took me 10 years to put it togagher.  Job change, kids grown-up saving money and what and what not to see and do.  Want to do most of it again and some other stuff as well but this time with my better half.

They used to make a slide in designed just for the Bronco but they are rare. If you can't find one maybe you could build one with the same design. I can't wait till you get started on it, I'm very interested in what you come up with.

It will be a while before I get into the camper,  its been sitting for 5years and was used as a farm truck for most of its life.  I got it running good finely.  Going to look at the tires tonight that parker sent me the link to.  Thanks parker I think.  Hope to finish the rime within the next two weeks and have it back in the road.

Another subject.
Has anyone built a air bod for under the dash from aluminum for a/c?  I want to put it in at some point but I want the air vents in the dash not hanging under like the last one I had was.

I cut vents into my dash for my a/c and they work OK but don't look great.

What did you use for the evaporator/heater core box.  Did you convert the factory on after market.

By the way, thanks parker for the tire lead.  I got 4used and pretty good shape tires for 2bills.  They should last a couple of years or untill I gather the parts for the overhaul.

I used an aftermarket kit from BC Broncos. If I had it to do again I would go directly to Vintage Air and get their Gen 4 system for the Bronco, it has much better air flow than the one BC Broncos has.

Those are nice and low profile so they should work but I wonder if the ones off of my Bronco II seats would work for you? You can have them if you want em.

Sure! let me know - I can retrofit those to my bestop seats...need one more seat. 
The bestop seat I have is a 'tan' Aquasport seat that is neoprene and is not made by bestop anymore; guess I will buy a vinyl spice seat like my Jeep and then put seat covers on them until I figure out what I am going to do.
Is your Bronco II seat sliders fairly 'flat' or low?

Yep, they are really low. I loved the seats until I spilled a gallon of oil on one of them. :(

I'll pull them off tomorrow and let you take a look at them.
