No, might dovetail it but not bob it any.

Figured the front 14 bolt was a cheaper and stronger route. Still running a welded 60 in the rear tho.

Here's my little ranger I'm building body on a 79 bronco frame .. Set it back so it will have zero approach angle front ... Will cut the rear frame so it will be zero also after 4 link .. Will be on propane also .. Tire size is 42's ....Just some else for ya to look at ..

I like it. What suspension setup you running?

Stock '79 bronco radius arm with 4" lift coils up front for now probley will extend the arms.. . Going to 4 like the rear . It's 4" leaves right now .. Waiting to see if I can find a deal on some used air shocks .. If not will use coils I have for the rear ..
Has a 351w-c6 ..

I cut the inner fenders and grill support as there made on the cab .. It will just have the front fenders plastic grill and light weight hood .. I may skin the bed for some small rear sides not sure yet ..

My have start a build thread over here ..on it got one going on a couple other sites ..

Ya I have been look at others .. I had 3 bronco II 's but i scrap all them and decided to use a ranger cab .. Since there would be no room for riders in the back after a radiator and two propane tanks are on in the back . Ranger cab I can stay warm and dry . Also ..
