What did you do to your ranger today thread

[osage201]

I removed the jump seats and am putting them on ebay tonight also made the empty space from the seats into storage for my 12 volt compressor and jumper cables

Drove to work....

Oh and more importantly, loaded all the lumber up for my DEER blind and hauled it to work, then unloaded it. Building blind while on company time.
Drove home and unloaded my .270 from extended cab.

went shooting with me

[Skylark65]

waxed it, cleaned the white letters on the tires, rotated the tires, greased the ball joints, and started to install my dixie horn

Well, I planned to wax it, but the weather went crazy and didn't cooperate:


I decided to just wax the tailgate in my garage, instead, to see how well my new RO buffer and gold class liquid wax worked. I want something to hide the swirls, but it's really not worth polishing the truck with how much bush pinstriping I get, I'd be cutting my clearcoat down every month and ruin my paint trying to do that.

Anyhow, I started off with a clean, washed and clayed but very swirly tailgate:


Then I taped everything off and applied the wax thinly with the buffer:
(Detailing people, does this look thin enough?)


And buffed it off to this:





The 50/50 pictures didn't turn out, my camera wouldn't show the difference in reflection (though it was very noticeable to my eyes). I used the harshest lighting I could (1500W of overhead halogen), and I could see a real difference, plus now the water beads off like it should.

Finally made bucket seats out of that stock 60/40 seat

[Striker36]

that looks GREAT. was it hard?

[ThaHickChick]

Haven't gotten ta it yet, but I'm gonna mount some lights on my new roll bar, and put a new exhaust on it.

[nicksranger01]

Alls I've done to my ranger in the last week is burn some gas and hacked the exhaust off, now all the exhaust i have ends right under the cab till i get some custom shit made...now she's parked till tomorrow when i put the black rims back on

Sent from my SCH-I500 using FRF App

Finally got it back on the road!

New gears,clutch,slave cylnder,gaskets, and fluid of course lol.

drove it around to make sure all was well then proceeded to drive just to drive

[SR2K]

Put on my $70 cap. Looks like its been on there for years. Which is surprising as the bed has only been on 6 months.

Washed her up.

[mthomp1]

I used it today to help my sister move to her new house. Yesterday, I replaced the water pump. I feel sorry for anyone who has to do that on a 3.0L. It's not the hardest thing in the world to do, but getting to a few of the 11 (or was it 12?) bolts is tough. I spent 7 hours in the ~100 degree heat replacing it.

If your talking about the bucket seats check out James post 60/40 seat mod & custom console I went a little further and covered up the pretensioner.
