Introducing Our Patriot Classic 4x4 Body Tub
We're excited to introduce our two-door early Bronco body. We'll explore the details that set our craftsmanship apart from others in the market, and explain why our approach to fit, finish, and features makes us stand out.
Key Features of Our Body
-
Enhanced Fit and Finish: We focus extra attention on the three key areas of fit and finish, ensuring that all parts align perfectly. Unlike many others, we take our time to achieve an optimal result.
-
Epoxy Primer Option: For added durability, we offer an epoxy primer as an option. This provides a thicker base for your bodywork and allows for extra blocking before applying the body filler.
-
Gas Shocks and Tubs: Our builds include gas shocks that we manufacture ourselves. We also produce three different styles of inner tubs—whether for OEM stock frames or our wider stock frame for coilovers. Our tub design maximizes clearance for modifications like coyote engine swaps.
-
Removable Tubs for Easy Painting: Unlike others, we don’t weld the tubs in place. This makes painting the engine compartment easier, allowing for a cleaner finish.
-
Cowl and Scribe Laser Lines: We make our own production-quality cowl pieces, ensuring a seamless finish. There’s no need for hand making, saving both time and effort.
-
Stainless Steel Hinges: Our bodies come with stainless steel hinges for both the hood and windshield frame. These are bolt-on, making removal or adjustment simple while avoiding issues with rust and flaking paint.
-
One-Piece Bedsides: We designed the original one-piece bedsides, eliminating the need for separate quarter extensions. This design improves both aesthetics and reduces production time.
-
Tailgate and Gas Cap Options: Our tailgate has an option to come with a quick removal trunnion, and customers can opt for either the classic factory-style gas cap or an upgraded, modern design.
-
Welded Rockers for Durability: We weld the rockers to avoid seam splitting. This provides long-term durability and ensures that gaps stay tight even after the body is mounted.
Customization Options
-
Lower or Uncut Bedsides: We can build the body to your specifications, including offering lower cut or uncut bedsides.
-
Bed Lining: Bed liner can be applied on the underside or the topside, depending on your preference.
-
Full Paint and Body Work: We offer full bodywork and painting services at highly competitive prices. Each body is built using our frame for maximum alignment and fit quality, ensuring the best possible result.
Our two-door bodies are crafted with precision and quality in mind, built on our jigged and fixtured HD early Bronco frame. We are committed to providing a high-quality product that exceeds your expectations, whether you want a complete build or just the body for your project.
