Trenton maybe it's the picture but the angle on those coilovers look funky. Did you cycle them? Looks freakin sweet, we need to meet up one of these days and go riding

Yeah I've cycled it without the coil on. I still need to bump and strap it. These shocks are just temporary until my Kings come in.

Just the throttle cable mod. Way more responsive, feels like a new truck

Re: What did you do to your ranger today thread IV
Put in a new extension housing bushing, put in the freshly balanced driveshaft with a new slip yoke, neutralized my motor/transmission mounts, and a little frame cleaning/painting.

Re: What did you do to your ranger today thread IV
Bottom of my trans is covered in fluid... either the oil leak from my engine got way worse or my slave went. Money is on the second as I'm locked out of my gears, but I just replaced it so I really hope that's not it. *sigh*
