Cory, Big Blue has a little bit more than 245HP...

You're right about that - most I see in the jy have had the bottom knocked out of them to make them function better. https://www.ebay.com/itm/80-86-Ford-Truck-or-Bronco-Driver-And-Passenger-Door-Map-Pockets-Red-1980-1986/174172722878?hash=item288d80d6be:g:10YAAOSwOIpeL7n8 https://www.ebay.com/itm/80-86-Ford-Truck-or-Bronco-Driver-And-Passenger-Door-Map-Pockets-Tan-1980-1986/133427930570?hash=item1f10eca5ca:g:SjUAAOSwovNe1q6Z https://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-80-86-F-Series-Bronco-Driver-LH-Left-Door-Map-Pocket-Trim-Molding-Panel/402327667372?fits=Model%3AF-150%7CMake%3AFord&hash=item5dac9902ac:g:dSgAAOSwq8hfD2Im https://www.ebay.com/itm/1987-1988-1989-1990-1991-FORD-BRONCO-F150-F250-LOWER-DOOR-POCKET-PANEL-SET-GREY/383879203641?hash=item5960fbcb39:g:U44AAOSwWX1f6hS9 https://www.ebay.com/itm/87-91-Ford-F150-Lower-Door-Panel-Trim-Carpet-Pocket-TAN-PASSENGER-SIDE/164186781149?hash=item263a4b75dd:g:yo4AAOSwGSZesYhk https://www.ebay.com/itm/Ford-XLT-F150-F250-F350-Bronco-Tan-Door-Carpet-Pocket-Panel-RH-LH-87-91-89c/352657204546?fits=Model%3AF-150%7CMake%3AFord&hash=item521c01e542:g:G9QAAOSwYyVczJRk https://www.ebay.com/itm/1987-1991-Ford-F-150-F-250-F-350-Bronco-left-lower-door-panel-carpet-pocket/233801307009?hash=item366fa4d381:g:7uQAAOSw0iRfw529 https://www.ebay.com/itm/1987-1991-Ford-F-150-F-250-Bronco-right-lower-door-panel-carpet-pocket-red-F-350/233796660406?epid=27020245222&hash=item366f5decb6:g:LLoAAOSwtmBfvpYJ https://www.ebay.com/itm/1987-1991-Ford-F-150-F-250-Bronco-right-lower-door-panel-carpet-pocket-blue-1990/333859928577?epid=28020253279&hash=item4dbb9a3a01:g:nKcAAOSwW29gA2LE https://www.ebay.com/itm/1987-1991-Ford-F-150-F-250-F-350-Bronco-left-lower-door-panel-carpet-pocket/333806682522?hash=item4db86dc19a:g:zQcAAOSwunJfwuby https://www.ebay.com/itm/Gray-Door-Panel-Pockets-1987-1988-1989-1990-1991-Ford-F150-F250-F350-Bronco-4x4/401750190151?fits=Model%3AF-150%7CMake%3AFord&hash=item5d8a2d6847:g:Te8AAOSweXFb5uIs

Cory, is the top speed in 4th?

I believe fellow forum member Reamer makes the brackets for these bumpers.

Can I share a bit of battery trivia? My father drove a 1963 VW Beetle. He was a chemist and had access to distilled water and used it to replenish the cells [long before low maintenance batteries]. Keep in mind that the Beetle battery was mounted under the rear seat, away from engine heat and vibration. In 1978, the car failed to start. The battery was removed [it had the original Wolfsburg Crest emblem on the case] and taken to Sears for a replacement. Two or three days later, the car failed to start, again. At this time it was determined that the braided ground strap has corroded, which was the problem. Dad rushed to Sears to retrieve the original battery [he felt that he had deserted a friend], but it was already gone.

Love this truck (And I love rescue stories too!). The wheels and tires look great, and she sits up nice on the suspension too, perfect! Here's a picture of what I did with my window felts. I used little pieces of sheet metal as washers. I drilled the 1/8" holes in the sheet metal first obviously, and then cut them out in little squares. Worked great. The "washers" will distribute the clamping force. Nice work!

That is a good one!

Looks good to me!

Nice, Cory! The ones on eBay are higher than that.
