And it actually works....and didn't fall off!!!
Nice cool air into the engine, and will also keep the water out, if I ever go in water that is over the Bonnet.....now that would be scary.

Close up of the engine bay side. It works well over here in Australia, but not sure how you guys will find it in the US with the Brake Booster etc.

This is the hard part, the snorkel end needed trimming down, to alow it to exit out of the side properly. Not much fun, but the end result was worth the effort and cuts on your hands.

It fits really well, only slight modification to the outside of the guard, to alow for a snug fit, but hey, you cut a massive hole in the side, so who cares!!

Custom made Drag link, and modified Track bar/panhard rod. The Drag link uses F250 Tie Rod ends and is adjustable. Easy fix when the ends wear out, saves replacing the whole bar. Also allows me to only have to use the same Tie rod ends on the vehicle...

The Bronc in 2005 after the SAS.
I have ordered a 2 inch body lift to replace the 3inch one that is in it at the mement. Want to reduce the centre of gravity a bit.

Getting the "bits" into position, I decided to stick with the superlift drop down arms for the time being, if they start cosuing me any greif I will swap them for F150 ones & manufacture a bracket for them to bolt on.

The hardest part!!
Yep you guessed it the "panhard rod/Track bar mount.
Due to the Aussie differences It had to go here. So some fabricating was required, the bracket is off a F250 or F150 4x4.
