I think I may have seen this beast in person last night. Did you happen to drive down mountain road yesterday evening? I saw a ranger that looked a lot like this one with a canoe on the roof.

I'm not really into 4X4 but your truck is truly badass looking. I would definitely trade my lowered 96 for that.

Ya...I'll trade you my 83 for it any day. It's a classic which means it's way faster, tougher, and better than all the other rangers...haha:icon_rofl:

so i sold my rear bumper and i was very sad. i decided to put the funds twards something productive and i bought this



i thought it was a smart move so i can very easily build myself another bumper and build one for others at thier request.

looks to have come out good, i know i was one to criticize u when u initially said u were gonna go with a dana 30, but the rubi 44 is a stout axle and i have successfully ran 38's under a small block 4spd ranger with a eb44 in the front with no breakage, so i know itll hold up under a heavy right pedal

Dude that is a sick clean Ranger.. Looks like you removed the 60/40 eats for 2 buckets and added a middle console.. If so how hard was it ? Did you have to weld a new setup for the seats? I personally hate the 60/40 setup and IF an easy fix wouldn't mind updating my interior some..
