My 1997 Ford Ranger project

Like I said, it was cycled and there was no contact. One side of the truck was put all the way up on a car lift and still the coils didnt touch. No rear sway bar but it doesn't 3 wheel like I thought it would. I have yet to 3 wheel it actually and don't plan on doing so (intentionally) 3 wheeling is lame a dangerous, not my style-

Yeah I appreciate the lookin out- Sway bar is coming at one point or another when funds allow..Blitz is a little out of my price range but I might check them out- How much is their sway bar?

small update..

truck has passed at the DMV on near everything to be street legal. ONLY thing holding me back right now is they cant find the 2nd VIN on the truck..

some updates.. got some more cage work done finishing up what I wanted in the cab and the truck is running pretty stout. It's currently in the process of being painted back to the original burnt orange color which should be done within about 2 weeks. Also all the shocks are getting rebuilt and revalved. Some pics from the other day..

pulling the shocks off..

how would 5 lights make it leak? the lights are mounted to the bar, which is then mounted to the cab and cab cage to keep the sheet metal from ripping. the lights themselves don't attach to the cab of the truck at all.

 

[kris97ranger]

maybe i worded it confusing but i mean i would like to do a rack like that one with 5 lights instead. i know the lights are attched to the rack but the rack is still going to be attched to the cab and thats where it would leak. so my question is how is it attached without leaking (meaning the whole rack.)

it connects directly to my cab cage. Where it comes in through the roof is completely sealed- I think they used bondo and silicone but don't quote me on that. I can take pics if you want?

 

[kris97ranger]
