Post one thing for your ranger at no cost to you

ok lets take this one step above the "what do you wish your ranger had that it dose not" if some one came up to and said that they would do one mod to your tuck at no cost to you, what would it be?


i would do a complete engine replacement, get rid of the 3.0 and drop in a nice powerstroke diesel engine.

Supercharger.



But realistically, a torsion key/shackle swap or a body lift would make me just as happy.

matching fiberglass cap (topper)
sounds silly, but a nice truck with a matching cap (topper) looks awesome.

Either a trip to the body shop for some ding and scratch removal, oh hell it just needs a paint job, or some bigger tires, these 14's suck!
