Erik Barnlund: Maxlider Brothers - Custom Broncos (@maxlidermotors / maxliderbros.com)

On this episode, Chris and Erik officially debunk the myth that his and his brother Kris' last name is Maxlider, the wild story that lead to the Barnlund brothers becoming known as the Maxlider brothers and how they built the premier official Ford Bronco custom up fitting program.

After the band Maxlider broke up, Erik and Kris decided to re-launch the Maxlider brand and focus on their love for vintage Broncos and old Ford trucks into a business.  Out of their 25,000 sq. foot shop in Bloomington, IL they build and restore custom classic and new Ford Broncos.  With the Bronco becoming one of the most popular classic and new trucks, they became the largest Bronco builder and customizer in the country.  Not only are they the officially licensed new Ford Bronco up fitter and customizer, but they continue to build bespoke investment quality classic Broncos.  Their high-end Bronco builds have earned numerous awards at top auto shows across the country, including SEMA.
