92 Ranger Prerunner
So thought it was time I made a build thread over here.
Here is my truck day one when i bought it. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...1e9c796cdd.jpg No nothing lol. Then the madness ensued: Drop bracket lift http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...9e09b97777.jpg Then paint job and tires: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...1212874537.jpg Then quickly realizing that drop brackets sucked: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25.../Photo0462.jpg Custom widened beams heimed radius arms and camburg coils and bilstein 7100 series shocks. Front end handled great after a few desert trips and some tuning and then i craved more! So i got a daily driver: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...Photo-0014.jpg And drank some beer! http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...Photo-0002.jpg And bought my new parts and went with coilovers and a engine cage. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...1264540750.jpg After much hard work and many hours of fabbing in making a bedcage for the first time thie is what we ended up with. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...1265215907.jpg Then fenders went on it. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...1265939035.jpg And shock mounts were made: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...1265918761.jpg And here is where it stands as of today http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y25...1265939181.jpg The truck has come along way since i bought it in my junior year of high school till today but it is still moving along. We are going out in it one more time before the rear suspension gets redone to keep up with the front. I will try and keep this thread updated as much as possible. If you have read this far good job! Btw all work on this truck has been done in my driveway it has never set foot in a shop not even for the engine work! |
Nice truck man
|
hey,
were did you get ur fender flares? i want some for my 90. how much was the bed cage? or did you build it yourself. nice truck. |

and the bedcage we made from scratch. Materials cost us about 80 bucks including the fender supports we had to make. Also the truck doesn't retain the stock bed anymore even though it looks like it from the side shots the fiberglass is just hung on the cage. We chopped up the bed awhile ago lol. I believe the fenders are hanneman flat tops so check them out. |
cool thanks.
lol jelous of your truck =D |
