Hello from Illinois

Hi, I'm new to the forum, been lurking for a while. I'm a 62 year old retiree who just got my first Bronco. It's a stock 1987 xlt 5.0 auto. It will be my DD. My first project is to get some rims and 33in. BFG tires. Maybe a 4in. lift later.

Your name is even cooler than your truck. I, too, am a Dale.

Good looking truck. Nice to see a friend from Illinois(from Jacksonville), got my 33 BFGs 2 weeks ago and love em. They fit under the truck w/no lift and no rub at all..

Oh wow. I don't live down there but i do go to my friends dads house rather often which is right in Freeburg...If i bring my bronco down sometime soon maybe we should meet up...I haven't been down there this month but last month i was down there every weekend...I love it down there its so much nicer than being in the suburbs of Chicago...

hello and welcome (belated as anything) and nice truck, looks very clean and im loving them tires and rims, i hyave a suggestion you may like, get a pushbar/brushguard for the front, i put one on my truck and was amazed at how much better it made the truck look, you have blackj rims so maybe a black one would look excellent
