When you can; can you measure the height of the bottom of the door sill?

I'm curious.
I'm right in the middle of a 1ton rear swap with 6" lift on my '94 Bronco.

My bottom door sill sits at 29". :eek:

It's at 33", but w/o the rest of body the chassis is sitting up about 2" above expected ride height.
 
Lots of Ford junk at my house, The Bronco/buggy/ftoy has been a ongoing project for 10+ years a major move, three shoulder surgeries, and a back surgery has made it take way to long to finish. The black Bronco is my light duty trail rig, and the 92' Explorer is being built to tow behind my class A motorhome. I'm currently most of my time on the Exploder just but a manual t-case in last weekend and have front/rear diff''s built with 4.56 gears, LS for the rear and power trax for the front also have a 5.5"x5 conversion all set up for it.

My current ford. bought it as a 76 f250 390/auto 2wd camper special off the original owner with 48000 miles. after getting it back on the road and driving it for a couple years, I body swapped it onto a solid 77.5-79 F250 4wd frame. 300 six, zf, 205, 4.10 dana 60s. At first I ran super stiff lift springs and 36" tsls. Eventually installed superduty front leafs and 255/85R16 Toyo M55s. needs to be finished out, but is a great driver and gravel road cruiser.

How do all.
I was a sub 10k member of the other board. Been lurking and absorbing useful info for a long time and will likely continue the trend. Rig is a 70 Bronco I've had since 95. First pic is from 2001 at the ill fated Paragon ( I miss that place). Second is a couple years years ago here in Michigan. Very little has changed. Hell, that's even the same tires!
Started collecting parts for the next round of upgrades and look forward to getting to it. Also have a swb 79 F350. It's my gofer rig that will eventually donate its front D60 to the Bronco. ​

Wes.

Here's mine. 78 f150 I saved from the crusher. It needed a clutch but was rusted terribly. I originally started out with a homemade wooden long flat bed, but as I've hit harder trails in the southeast I've shortened it. 351m with TBI, 435 4 speed, 203/205 doubler, d60/14b rear 4 linked coilovers, front 6" superflex springs and long arms. I went by poweratroketim on the other site, but got a new name here that matches most other forums I'm on.

Howdy folks - here's my '96: 5.8L, E4OD, BW1356 with Detroit locked Dana 44 TTB and LS 8.8 rear with 4.56 gears in both. It's on a 5.5" Superflex lift with Bilstein 5100 shocks and 35" Cooper Evolution M/T tires. It has Mastercraft suspension front seats, Saginaw upgraded PS pump with BlueTop 4-bolt steering gear, custom fabbed front and rear off-road bumpers with 12000# Badlands winch with in-cab controls in front and swing out tire carrier out back, custom built rock slider/side steps, roof rack, and too many other little mods to mention. Some of you Bronco guys may know me already....

As far as I know, supermotors is not changing, other than working on a new/upgraded server. I have a contact that is in direct contact with the owner of SM.
