Is this the biggest glass you can get for 92-96 Broncos/F150's

I searched and it was one of the only one piece hoods I found for this body style. Does anyone know of any companies that make anything bigger and that would allow you to push the wheels ahead further? Something in the 88-90 inch range? Or that have the lights and grill glassed in so you could trim more?

Thanks.

Pretty much Eric. It looks like you may need to contract our someone to do something custom from scratch or we can work with you to modify what we have already created.

We have customers bring in their vehicles all the time to do custom modifications so that the body panels fit best on each vehicle.

What size tires are you planning? I believe most people stretch the wheelbase backwards.

baja619: Still can't make my mind up on glass for my truck... How does the header panel fit up to your FWX / Speed Unlimited Retro 1pc glass? Does it eliminate the header panel?

It's nice to push the front forward a few inches to help big tires clear the firewall. This would be mostly for prerunners with no wheelbase or motor/spindle distance rules to comply to.

Baja 619, thanks for the responce. That pretty much confirms what I had been thinking. You are limited to +4 inches on trackwidth but can run glass in class 3. I am doing some searching for another possible build. Like Chris said, right now my class 3 is only on 35's and I already have to do some clearancing to make them clear the firewall.

The "Retro" 1-piece is separate from the grill and lights. So say mounting the clip during installation from the back and working up to the front it should line up to the header panel nicely.
