Bowtie fan here but, dammit man that’s an awesome rig. Hell of a job.

[@BigEdKOWALIK-ok9co]

Hard not to like that!!! Unless you are just a Chevy fan.

[@FasterBastard1]

As much as I enjoy ragging on the misfortunes and questionable decision making of ford owners, this is one rig I’d be damn proud of. Awesome build.

GREETINGS FROM GUATEMALA CENTRAL AMÉRICA I'M MANUEL. I HAVE A BRONCO 1979; AT GUATEMALA I LOVE THEM. THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR VÍDEOS.

[@xplorervideos]

Thanks for watching the videos and commenting. Super cool that people from all over the world are watching my videos from a small town in Ontario Canada 🇨🇦. The old 1970’s ford broncos are awesome old trucks I’m on Instagram if you want to send me a picture of your bronco @xplorervideos

if we had the money to bring our trucks down we'd be there! I flew down this year Koh is wild!

such a nice truck /broncos are so cool

Nice Bronco.

[@xplorervideos]

Thanks 👍, there will be some more up coming videos featuring my brothers 79 bronco

[@Robert_Mann]

Nice man. I have those same rims on my '78 F250!

[@xplorervideos]

They weren’t exactly easy to find, from what I remember he bought them off market place in the US and had them shipped up to Canada 🇨🇦, but the look totally fits the truck!

[@albertstandish1439]

Just the stock Bronco 4B4 Was a good truck.

[@EPstroker]

Wow nicely built 78/79 bronco. I love the suspension design. I thought about doing something like that in the rear on mine back in the 90s. But back then coil overs weren't around like they are today. Not a fan of 351m motors but a well built 400 is worlds better. The M's just don't have enough cubes to build for good.power and torque. Or to take advantage of some good Cleveland heads. 400s do though.

[@xplorervideos]

Thanks for the comment, yea the 351m definitely isn’t a power house but it runs pretty descent. Ian’s got a pile of parts saved out for what should be a strong 400

[@give-nofacts420]

The 351 converted into a 387 stroker is a beast and cheap if you use other ford parts for it

[@xplorervideos]

thanks for the info, might have to look into that one.... who doesn't like to make cheap power 🤘

[@give-nofacts420]

@@xplorervideos I just watched a video on it the other day it’s pretty cool to know about i want to try it also myself

Nice from ontario myself

[@xplorervideos]

Awesome how about that weather eh 🇨🇦, thanks for commenting and watching👌 We’re not doing much local off-roading this time of year since they blast all the roads with salt but it’s a great time to check out cool builds and share them.

[@anthonym9137]

What area you from ?

[@xplorervideos]

I'm close to Barrie but our group is from all around Ontario

[@brianishmael2290]

This is my dream truck ive had 3 but not a 78 or 79. This would be really close to the way i would build it too.

[@Notafordguy]

Nice truck subscribed

[@xplorervideos]

Hey thanks for subscribing Elliot! 👍 I’m Going to have a lot more videos with my brother Ian’s 1979 bronco in the future along with some other beauty trucks

[@edhellbilly]

Killer ford

[@xplorervideos]

Thanks ed

[@malcolmhammond2135]

Trans is probably an NP435, rather than a T18. Very cool Bronco.

[@xplorervideos]

It had a np435 in it that died an unfortunate death 😬, that ended up getting replaced by a early 80’s t18

[@pwklaid]

я бы там на ниве пешком два раза туда-сюда проехал

[@danielnunez3518]

How do you get the engine out with that shock tower?

[@xplorervideos]

The whole shock tower is bolted to the sides of the frame

[@indiej2964]

How much does your average long travel kit cost for something like this

[@xplorervideos]

This one is all custom made by Ian but there’s a few companies that make kits for those trucks

[@johnconner8218]

Great Snow/Mud Machine and possibly rock crawling but why is it called War Machine? No weapons, no war, just awesome machine for a specific purpose.

[@xplorervideos]

Thanks for the comment, War horse is just nickname that build picked up 🤷‍♂️, but your right it’s just a awesome machine just for having fun!

[@johnconner8218]

@@xplorervideos It is an awesome build I was kind of hoping there was an event or something the name was intended for. Like for KOH but a snow version. Love the Bronco from that time too. Again Nice Build

And people just don't realize how bad mud tires actually suck in snow

[@streetsharkmotorworks8902]

Little work and those "M" engines party hard.

Ians been collecting some parts to build a stout 400m...... probably go over that in the near future
