Hello, I am new to the ranger station but, not the offroading world. My current rig is a 73 F100 cab on a 78 bronco rail. It has a bvuilt 460 with a built c6 trans. My question is Im looking into swaping a ranger cab on the rail. I tried the search bar but, I found nothing could someone help me out with some pictures?

Welcome to TRS! I haven't seen too many ranger cabs swapped onto Full size frames, but its pretty straight forward, just align the cab on the frame and burn in some cab mounts. Where in KY do you live?

I live in Russell County. Have you ever heard of lake cumberland? I have saw a bunch of them . Everyone I have seen has been different . I would continue running the 70s model cab but you can't find them .

Can't say I have. Sounds like eastern KY. I live near Ft. Campbell, KY, about 20 minutes away...

Well do you know of any 73-79 ford truck around you or a ranger. I'm looking for complete trucks. The motor an trans can be bad.
