Agreed... Was "really pumped" about this build until I read the top was going to remain vertical in the rear and just paint the window in the front... Big bummer.

If that's the case, I feel like there's already a build like this? Or pretty similar.

Slanted back (and as someone else pointed out, a but more stretch from the door to the wheel well) is what makes this stand out and more accurately match the render.

Oh well... šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø
At this point Iā€™m not willing to make drastic top modifications in order to change body lines. For now I will play the waiting game and see what the aftermarket comes up with. But you have to realize this vision is based off a rendering thatā€™s only about 85% accurate compared to the actual Bronco. And thatā€™s really the beauty of it all. Itā€™s about personal expression.

I donā€™t believe that there is a build like this (or even similar) out in the wild just yet.

At the end of the day, the only person Iā€™m trying to please is my wife. It is my goal to provide her with a one of a kind Bronco that she can enjoy for years to come.

Talked to King on the phone, and they had only made ones for the weight of the 4 door, but were working on the 2 door, so maybe they have them now. Just wondering if I could get the part numbers from you so I could check with them. Having more info is better than none...... The ones you show are what I would like to go with from the pictures. Thanks.

These are the part numbers for the specific parts we used.

ive talked to several people and suppliers and theyre all saying the king suspension is an 8-10 month wait to get it.
I was told they were basically made of ā€œunobtainiumā€œ for th4 foreseeable future. I started making calls to everyone looking for a set. I was extremely lucky to find and get them even before we had our Bronco. Persistence paid off for me.

Best of luck!

I have been trying to please mine for 30+ years, maybe someday.

Going to be one killer build. Those are the exact wheels Iā€™m going with on my build. Just waiting for Carli to release their bronco kit then itā€™s full speed ahead. Excited to see the finished product!

i love Method wheels. Iā€™ve got them on my F250, my SxS and now the Bronco. My F250 is also running the Carli Back Country 2.0 leveling system. Carli makes a very nice product.

Or you could find one of these window deletes that were on the Overland Concept and just make a fake vinyl window to the shape you want. I can't remember if these ever hit the Accessories catalog or not.

I've been keeping my eye out for this panel, haven't seen it yet. I would install in a heartbeat.

Updated pic. We are still wet sanding and polishing the panels. She's really starting to get some character.
