Cheap Mods and Toys for Ranger
I'm getting bored here and wanna do something else with my truck!
Since adding a long travel suspension or fender flares are too expensive at the moment what are some cool things you guys have made or bought for your rangers to make them look better or even run better.
Let's see em!
I just bought a tool box for 10 bucks and painted it. Than bought a cb radio for 20 with a firestick antenna and installed it.
Thinking about a PA speaker now.

CA allows 70% up front and any on back and rear. But prepared for cops to give you heat if you have limo on the back. Most don't like anything darker on the back than the factory privacy glass. Since CA only allows 70% up front, you might as well get the ~80% heat resisting film.

How close are you to a big city? I live near Chicago and that's a ripoff at that price.

Eh, hard to tell. That quote does seem steep. Although the prices may be totally different.

Re: Cheap Mods and Toys for Ranger
Tint it yourself. I started out with static cling tint. You can't mess it up and real easy to put on. 12 bucks a roll. Enough to do passenger and driver window. Nother roll for back window. Looks good too. Best part cop tells you to remove it, no problem peel it off. Only 12 bucks not a super loss. (Btw get home and reapply the tint)

Haha that's what I would do. Where I am in Canada the cops don't bother u much for tint because the glare from snow in the winter time. As long as sides are a light tint.
