In season 4 episode 9 of Texas Metal, titled "Rock'n Bronco," the team at Ekstensive Metal Works takes on a unique project for a client looking to turn his Ford Bronco into a rock-inspired ride.
The episode starts off with a visit from the client, who brings in his 1974 Ford Bronco and explains his vision to the team. He wants to transform the classic SUV into a tough and rugged rock crawler, complete with custom features and powerful performance upgrades.
To accomplish this mission, the team at Ekstensive Metal Works starts by stripping down the Bronco to its bare bones, carefully examining each part and assessing which components need to be replaced or upgraded. They then start building the new rock-inspired features, including custom bumpers, rock sliders, and fender flares.
One of the standout features of this project is the custom-designed roof rack, which the team creates from scratch using raw metal. They meticulously measure, cut, and weld each piece together, resulting in a truly unique and functional addition to the Bronco.
In addition to the exterior upgrades, the team also focuses on enhancing the Bronco's performance capabilities. They install a new engine and transmission, along with a custom exhaust system and suspension upgrades to give the SUV a higher ground clearance and better off-road performance.
Throughout the episode, viewers get an inside look at the intense work that goes into each project at Ekstensive Metals Works, from the detailed planning and design phases to the long hours spent in the shop fabricating and building each component by hand.
As the project nears completion, the excitement builds as the team puts the finishing touches on the Bronco before taking it out for a test drive. The client is thrilled with the final product, which exceeds his expectations and takes his dream ride to a whole new level.
Overall, "Rock'n Bronco" showcases the creativity, skill, and dedication of the Ekstensive Metal Works team, as they bring their client's vision to life and create a truly one-of-a-kind vehicle that represents the heart and soul of Texas metal.
