where to get work done

[three33]

my dad has a 78 bronco....he would like the engine rebuilt maybe a lift kit some body work as in rust removal....new shock....transmission done......pretty much alot of work....can anyone recommend a good shop or does anyone know anyone who does a complete overhaul.....he wants it done good but at a cheap price.....preferable under 5k.....the reason he doesnt do it is cause he doesnt have time....any info or phone #s would be greatly appriciated

the lift and bodywork can be done for a good price at national 4x4 centre and the engine at firebolt. youre going to have a difficult time finding a place that will do engine and bodywork and lift kits in the same place... modern motors is also good but i hope you have some good $$$ laying around.

Modern Motors is good but too expensive, they wanted $2300 to put a 4 inch lift in my Bronco

I wasn't impressed with them. I brought in my S10 a while ago to get my V8 to sit in the engine bay right and have the tranny clear everything.

I got the truck towed back to my house, only to find that they didn't hook the hood release cable back up. After over an hour of pissing around with a screwdriver and breaking my grille, I managed to get it open. Once everything was wired up and I had it running, the tranny would hit the the tunnel every once in a while. I took a look at the gap around the tranny and in spots there was less than a 1/4cm clearance. As soon as the drivetrain would shift from the torque, it would hit. The whole reason I took it in was so that this sort of shit wouldn't happen. I suppose I should've looked more closely before I assembled everything else, but I trusted that they did the job I paid them to.

I'll never use them again.
