Well I finally got the main tubes for the cage, cut, notched, prepped, and tacked together so I was finally able to take the top of the Bronco.  This was after I had to racket strap the suspension down to clear the door.  I'm just waiting for a pipemaster to help with a couple of tricky notches so hopefully next weekend I'll start burning some major wire and can get a start on the gussets.  Hopefully by the end of the month I'll start on the trans and finally order up the Atlas.  By the way, does anyone have a trans guy that can clean my case for me?

This week I finished up the gussets and burned in the top half of the cage, now I just need to remove it and burn in the bottom side.  I got in some eletrical stuff so I can start working on that and just waiting on more parts to arrive.  Here are some pics of the cage and the seats for the back to replace the bench.

This week I got the last set of diagonal bars tacked in and the harness bar notched and prepped for welding.  I finished up the install on the brackets for the front seats and finally figured out how I was going to mount the rear seats.  Hopefully I'll get them installed in the next day or two, then pics will follow.

With the exception of the harness tabs, the rollcage is fully welded and ground down, I did the final fit of the dash and the glove box.  I also had to search for about an hour for all the parts I've bought and stock piled for the last year or so.

I've been getting parts in by the week.  Hopefully the assembly will speed up with some good weather.  I've started on the wiring and roughly placed a few items.

I went to my dad's this past weekend and picked up some goodies for the bronco and the garage.  I got an upper MAF intake, computer, and injectors for a 5.0.  I had a lower intake almost off but I snapped the thing in half.  The junkyard is going to get me a late model lower this week.  Looks like I'll be ordering a new harness this week and really hit the wiring hard again.

I got an old floor jack from an auction so I can stop climbing under a car to jack it up.  It's only slightly larger than a normal floorjack.  I also finished cleaning up the cage and loaded it into the truck so I can drop it off for powder coating tomorrow.

Started prepping the tub for the new liner.  I jet-stripped the old liner and then ground the remnants off.  Hopefully I'll be spraying the new liner in a week or so.  I also cut in a hole for the cherokee parking brake.
