i don't know if these links will work, but they are pics i posted on another forum.... anyways, this is my truck, 1986 ford ranger 4x4 2.9l. 3" suspension lift, 3" body lift, 35x12.5x15 swampers, two 12" polk audio subs + 800w amp, i customized the interior with a lot of switches and buttons for the lighting systems, push button start, etc.. cb radio, 5% tint, manual lockers, custom sound system (very loud).

this is my daily driver truck, i am constantly putting money into it for repairs (ugh!) but it's alright, cause i learn a lot that way. much of the modification to it was my work also. i haven't taken it into the mud yet, but i am planning on it soon. i do know it could climb a snow bank pretty easily though this winter!!! never got stuck in the snow, thats for sure! my next project, is obviously going to be a new paint job. i think i will keep it green, but it's peeling in many places right now. whoever painted it last didn't do a very good job... i am going to try to paint it at home, so we'll see how that project turns out, i guess

thanks!

How the does the 2.9 ltr pull those 35's ok? One of the better motors better than the 3.0 ltr. Need to get a 5.0 under there lots of fun!!! Looks good miss mine but mine was just a single cab. Your just like me I'd rather do things myself if I can.

jKsled

well, lets just say that it goes, but not real fast. i certainely wont ever be getting a speeding ticket. it's got good low end though, for how small the motor is, and it gets decent gas mileage for such big wheels. yeah, a v8 would be fun! i am considering a tranny swap this summer to a manual, with a 4.0L clutch/flywheel. good increase in efficiency over the old automatic, plus a bulletproof tranny....

I called to arrange a tow truck to come pick that FORD up off the side of the road for you. The tow truck is a real reliable truck, a DODGE.

polaris rider

Uh Oh guys... can anyone say we may have found another SNOWMAN!

JKsled worked hard on his truck and spent lots of time and money on it, show him some respect, if u dont like it, then dont comment it!
