Probably the most important thing you missed is that we're having a Minnesota Ranger owners meet at Spider Lake OHV area in the Foot Hills State Forest by Leader, MN on October 12th at noon. We've got a few people committed to going, it would be fun to have more.

Well you missed some of the following...maybe more.

Several new members, even one from your st cloud area, joshquade.

I re-bedlined my bed, and also did my rocker panels in red bedliner, did my tube steps and bedlined my fender flares and bumper plastics. I also red plasti-dipped my chrome bumpers.
I also took my topper off and put my roll bars on.
thread here:
http://www.fordrangerforum.com/exter...-bedliner.html

meanmark has been working hard on his bronco 2, and his ranger has been jealous and breaking down on him begging for some attention.

minnsota2001ranger got a new hi-lift jack installed...

i am in this months TOTM running.

we are planning a meet oct 12 at spider lake

i'm sure there's more....u will have to just skim thru all the pages...

Went to the junkyard today. I decided to just bite the bullet and put in the work to take out the steering column from the B2 they had at the yard and put it into mine.

This was the one they had:



It had the ugly blue interior that I've never liked, but it had something I needed:



While I was out walking around after getting that column I noticed this sitting there:



It was a 1990 Ranger with a tan interior....which I needed because the doors I previously installed on the BII are off a 92 Ranger, which means the interior panels from the '88 doors wouldn't fit. So I've been sitting here with mismatched door trim panels (gray instead of the tan I need). So I ripped the panels out of this green Ranger and now I'm set!



Now the task is to swap columns and ignition cylinders, reinstall the steering gearbox, and get this EFFING THING OFF THE JACKSTANDS.

There were a boatload of Explorers, several had to be 98+. There were only 3 Rangers and all were second gens. A '90 a '91 and a '92.

I almost took the OHC out of a couple of those Expos just to sell them.

I keep looking for an Expo center floor console to put in the B2 since the stock one is possibly the worst ever designed in the history of domestic motor vehicles, but damn near every single one is cracked, ripped, missing the lid, the wrong color, has the lid broken off....argh.
