Another newbee in Lakewood.
Hi Everybody, I registerd a couple weeks ago and just now getting around to indroductions. My name is Justin and I live in Lakewood, Green Mountain area. My project vehicle is a 76' bronco, 37" tires, full cage, basicly stock 302 and an automatic tranny. I'm trying to work out all the nagging details with the Bronco. My work truck is a 96' F250 that is starting to nickle and dime me to death.
I met a guy at Home Depot on Araophoe & I-25 and he's the one that turned me onto the site (sorry can't remember His name). I look forward to chating and picking all your brains for advice from time to time. I'm sure I will be seeing some of you on the trails.

Welcome aboard! Looks like you are just a hop and skip from Golden.
Have any more pics of that Bronco?

Hey Shawn, how's the bronco coming along? when we talked you were getting ready to put in a new axle. I'm still trying to get mine tuned right, I put a new intake and carb on and i need to re-jet for higher altitude. I'm right at about 5800 ft. and my fuel milage sucks, I hope it works. A locker in the rear and I might be ready for making it pretty, NOT! Then I wont want to scratch it. ha ha.

Well I got the axle in, thanks to Hypoid or I would still be stuck with the wrong gears. I need new drums because they are not machinable. I have the new shaft in and need to set the pinion angle and weld the perches in. otherwise I haven't had much time to work on it.
Let us know if you need anything with jetting your carb. you may want to drop the primaries down 1 or 2 sizes then set floats and timing and see how it performs

I tried to upload a teaser for my default pic it gave me failed message so here is one of them. It does have the rear flairs on now and the hood has been sanded down.
