Default New to FRF-New Owner

New to FRF and I'm a new owner of a Ranger. I have big plans for the Ranger but with idiots for mechanics in my local area and some-what of a budget-I've come to seek wisdom for repairs that are on going. This morning I had the Ranger in the shop. I get a call stating it's "Too much work" and the repairs and pricing were out of this world. You see the truck that was given to me sat for a bit.(6 months) It's a '93 and the suspension have seen better days. Every bump is like the worst pothole you could think of. My journey of rebuilding starts here at FRF. So pointers, diagrams,parts are all welcome as suggestions! I've started on the body all ready and soon have an album full of photos. Thanks!
-Jim
