Re: Random pics of your truck thread

A lot more work here than you may think. This is an '89 Ranger :)

Re: 1996 Ranger 2.3l misfire

I know this problem was solved, congrats. However, it could not have a been a coil pack. I want to straighten this out. A coil pack fires two plugs, either cylinders 1 & 4 or 2 & 3 at the same time....

Re: need an opinion on paint

Two thin coats of etching primer, then three coats of paint. You want it flat, so I suppose you are using a flat clear or semi? maybe two coats.

Re: How do i fix this

The belt molding vary for every car, but they are not an expensive piece. ( $30-$75) Cost should never be a cause for buying or not buying. They are easy to replace and keep debris out of your door.

Re: Here's a ranger front end for you :)

No South Carolina is not an old address, it's a new address. I'm moving down there. It takes a lot of time to move when you have as much to move as I do. I'm on a slow move plan :)

Re: need an opinion on paint

Do yourself a favor and buy etching primer in a spray can. It really , IMO, is the only type of spray can primer to use. Duplicolor makes some, as well as Rustoleum. But I like the Duplicolor better....

Re: Here's a ranger front end for you :)

Thanks guys. My Ranger and Bronco certainly are not at the head of the pack as far as my vehicles . . . but I have fun with them and they are damn reliable to boot. I like turning heads and they do.

Re: Here's a ranger front end for you :)

I've done the Bronco grille, that's on my '84 BII. But it is more work than you think . . roughly the right width but still a lot to get it mounted.

Here's a ranger front end for you :)

I see all the posts about grilles and such . . take the big leap. This is an '89 Gen2. Gen 1 fenders and hood have been put on along with a 1961 F100 grille. The grille has been sectioned 14 inches (...
