This is my solution to cracked rear lift gates. I had a custom piece of stainless steel made. I bolted it on to add extra strength to the rear door. I also found a mint spare tire cover to replace my old crappy one. You can also see in this pic my new stainless steel exhaust tip.

(Left) I added a new rear cargo light with super bright white bulbs.
(Right)I removed all the door lock rods and pins, and replaced them with these cool red lights that flash when my alarm is set. I did this when I installed the power doorlocks, and to prevent someone from slim jimming my truck. This all happened after someone broke in and stole all my shit. Man was I pissed. So this prevents that and stops me from locking my keys in the truck. Now I have it programmed to lock and unlock the doors when you turn the alarm on and off.

Added a Sun roof

I swapped the seats out of my 91 Explorer and put them in my BII, after they were completely cleaned of course.
Old BII seats....gotta love the vinyl

Newer Explorer seats. Add a little lumber support as well to the drivers side...I've since removed the lumbar thingy.

At least I now have some type of head rest support.

New warn Hubs and the BFG AT's on the left and my BFG MT's on the right...sorry about the mud...ok not really.

Also modded in some 91 Explorer dual sunvisors...it's a really good fix to the old floppy vinyl visors that where in there before

James Duff Extended Radius arms with JD front shocks...allows for killer flex in the front.

Scraped the clutch fan and installed an electric 2 speed fan out of a mercury sable. Keeps it super cool in the summer and when wheeling...not to mention less HP loss.

Here's my custom front receiver. Made it so that I could put my Winch on a cradle and move it fron front to back whenever I want.

Here's the 8000lb Champion winch that I picked up. Not the best but for the price it and for as often as I use it...It's good enough for me. I used 4 guage quick connects to allow me to move the winch from fron to back. Also ran wires and another connector to the back...real easy to use.

Man... really great BR2!!!! I was hoping you could give me some advice on how you mounted the Explorer seats. I bought some seats but the mounts are entirely different and I'm having problems figuring out how to do it. I think the seats were out of a later model Explorer with 3rd row seating. Are they too new? Did the mounts in the seats out of the 91 explorer you used match up? Thanks a bunch!

Hey, I love the Bronco and i was wondering how you bolted the piece of stainless steel onto the back of it? I can't see where you put the bolts. And how hard was it to put the moon roof in? Thanks Joe
