Default DropTopRanger

Hey everyone, I'm Chase, I'm 24, I hail from the bread basket, air capitol of the world, Wichita, Ks.

I work for a property management company doing remodeling work on apartment complexes (siding, trim, general framing, etc.) I travel a lot for work throughout the midwest. So if you're anywhere in kansas, oklahoma, texas, Arkansas, or mississippi, flip me off or something!

Now on to the truck.

It's a 97 xlt 2.3 with roughly 216k, I've owned it for a little under a year, bought it with 203k for $600 and I've done a few things to it. It's my cheap project/daily driver. I know you're probably thinking DropTop? He has a convertible ranger? Not at all...

Currently as it sits:
3 coils cut up front w/ 1½" shorter than stock shocks
Flip kit in the rear with '95 Nissan Hardbody shocks
No bumpstops all around
"Custom" cat back exhaust (glasspack welded to about a 1' section after the flange after the cat, dumped at the axle)

60/40 bench to bucket mod
'99 mountaineer full center console
Gauge cluster from same mountaineer, for the tach.
Pioneer headunit, and Rockville 10" powered sub behind passenger seat
New kenwood speakers all around
Red gauge lights, red led under dash lights while headlights are on.
Grant Gt steering wheel

Jason hightopper
Custom bedslide storage system

Yeah I know cut coils are the worst thing you can do suspension wise. I'm cheap though. Like I load my chipotle bag up with extra spoons forks knives and napkins cheap

I'll get drop beams and a c-notch and raised trans crossmember soon but for now, I'm still the lowest static ranger in Wichita 🤷*♂️


Also, shameless plug time, if you're like me and you like vinyl graphics, stickers, decals, whatever you wanna call them, hmu on my fb page. facebook.com/ICTGraphicsWorks
