Here is the start of my new project. The Bronco was purchased a few years ago for $300. The trailer was $500 about 12 years ago. The topper was just purchased for $60.
The Bronco;
It's a '79 with a 351, and a 4 speed. I've done a shackle flip in the rear and swapped in a Dana 60 that was in a stale project. The front is the stock Dana 44 with 3/4 ton outers and 4:10 gears. The front lift is from Craigslist springs. Both ends are open while I wait for money for lockers.
The trailer;
That's a dodge bed on top of a Ford van chassis and a Chevy topper. The axle on it is a Dana 61. I plan to change it out with something that has less drag. I plan on modifying the rear opening to one piece of plywood with a door in it. Just to make it easier to get in and out of.
