Default Re: What did you do to your ranger today thread

Last week or so list:
Picked up a bed cover off craiglist, came off a s10 stepside, fit perfectly, $30 brand new.
Picked up 4 60lb sand tubes
Replaced Spark Plugs
Seafoamed the engine
Ordered a skidplate from Joshp
Replaced the engine block heater cord
Ran 6awg wire to the back of the cab for the inverter.

Had a thought, 1 kw onboard inverter + 500W engine block heater = faster warm ups?

cleaned engine bay today along with cleaning and coating K&N I have had sitting out for the last year, did 3 step seafoam treatment, cleaned IAC, and MAF.

Needless to say, but I will- along with the new plugs, new cables, new coil, and all three new o2 sensors the ranger runs like new. It is hard to believe it has 168,000 miles on it.

Im stoked it is back up and running!

Changed out all the bulbs in my cluster, but the ones that were burnt out before will still not light up with the new LEDs. Any ideas!?

Parked the Lexus on the driveway in the Ranger's spot all week due to the snow storms hitting Seattle. Gave the Ranger the garage so it was ice and snow free for my 4WD to work.

Lol
Broke the emblems prying them apart

Cleaned all the snow off of them. As a rough guess, we got about 7" - 8" of snow last night.

Backed the Ranger into the newly widened-by-cleanup (and heated) garage stall, took the toolbox off, and got the front two bed bolts off (only took a turn with a breaker bar, then the air impact wrench took them out). The rear 4 bed bolts were previously prepped and removed, so those came out readily. Tomorrow remove the tailgate, hoist the bed off and see what rear frame rust repair is needed, have new hangars to install and differential maintenance to do (along with por-15 for the frame). Had to stop to fire up the snowblower and clear the driveway of 3" of light snow. (shoveled the 3" two days ago, getting lazy this time).

Did burnouts like I was at a racetrack! 3.slo still makes some damn good smoke! Left a few tattoos on the town and parked it in the driveway. Found a screw in one of my fairly new 32"s Hopefully I can wash it tomorrow!
