Default 97 ford ranger

Possible mods I'm doing to the truck. Its a 4 cylinder 5 speed on the floor 97 ranger single cab. I'm thinking about putting 7 color change underglow. 7 color interior glow. Monster (drink) door projector. Mounting 2 bucket seats in bed. And 2 12" subs. Will post pics soon

X2, dont forget the throttle body cleaning and maf cleaning. OP, make sure your truck is taken care of before any cosmetic mods. If you don't, your "nice" truck will be in the drive way parked

I just did the "brake" mod, which hopefully will help me avoid the "break" mod ...

With all the other bling ... don't forget the tinted glass and window banner!
