Well decided to do a new project. I really like just building stuff. The frame on my F150 is broken in half in the rear and started to pull in the front where the trac bar mounts, not a straight panel left so I bought a new project
01 Ranger 125k miles
4.0 auto
ext cab step side
Kid ran it into a tree last year, didn't set the air bags off, it blew the passenger side knuckle clean off and peeled the fender back which is fine for me because I'm just getting rid of that stuff anyway
I wanna sell the step side and get a regular bed too, the fiberglass bed is too nice to tear up and i like the look of a bobbed bed
I've already got a replacement fender, inner fender, and header panel just need headlight and turn signal
It's nice to keep weight down it has a fiberglass hood and header panel
Plans are
1350/1354 doubler
78 hp d60 yukon chromos 5.38s and a detriot
10.25 rear 5.38s and welded
chevy 63's in the rear
ranger rears up front
39.5-43" tires, depends on what I find when I have the cash
Current setup is coil springs in the front of my F150 but I'm going with leaves just for simplicity and for around here leaves are enough
Pics are coming in next post
