Default Hi guys

Hi guys, my name is TeeJay, Im 23 years old, and Im from Stevens Point WI, but currently live in Madison WI. Now to be honest with you all this is my first vehicle, and I know next to nothing about trucks or cars, vehicals in general,I build customer computers for fun, but when the girlfriends parents offered to sell me there 1993 Extend cab ranger for $500, I was like sure okay, I knew it need a lot of work, but Ive always wanted to restore old truck(I use to have a 48 chevy with a camero engine waiting to go in but I knew it would never happen and I gave it away to a friend), but I had never changed my own oil until today, and now Im hooked.

Current Ranger Specs:
1993 Extended Cab
V6 4.0L 2wD
Sexiness

I know im in for a lot of work over the the next few years and it needs to be stripped down to the frame, have the frame rust removed and coated, rebuilt all back up, but l need to start slow so over the next few months im going to replace all the shox as there trashed, the leaf springs, and over the winter, as I dont plan on driving it im going to rebuild the rear axel because i can feel it catch when I accelerate form a standing position and it rocks when im at a stop light.

Hopefully next month I can replace the spark plugs, spark plug wires and distributor cap.

I come begging for begging for your knowledge and expertise folks.
