Here is my 1990 Ranger XLT Extra Cab. It is a 2.9L V6, 5 speed manual. It is dark gray, has a matching canopy. It currently has a 2" Rancho Suspension lift, and 31", 10.50", R15 All Terrains. It is gray inside and has the jump seats in the extra cab. It reached the 100,000 mile mark yesterday. It has 100,014 as of a minute ago. It's not factory shape, but it's pretty damn nice for being almost 22 years old.:yahoo: It has a CB, fog lights, and a toolbox added to it. I use it as a Daily Driver to school every day. I use it for hunting, some mild offroading if needed, and dump runs. Sometimes pulling my buddies out of the ditch.:icon_thumby::icon_rofl: Tell me what you think.:bye::D

Thank you. :) It's a very nice daily driver. I try to treat it as nice as possible.=D I'm going to feel bad if I still have it and it reaches 200,000 miles. :(

No. We have another Ranger for that. We're building it into a trail rig. We're gonna do a 44 front, 9" rear. with 5.13 gears. 2.9: V6, 5 Speed. 37' IROKS. I'll have the build thread up sometime soon. We don't have much done to it at the moment.

Well if something happens to your stock axles... I'd still do explorer axles under your dd.

I would do a Dana 30 before a Dana 35. It's a solid axle, same bolt pattern, and a driver's side drop. :icon_welder:

Sure, I'll get one tomorrow. It's a little dark right now.:icon_thumby:
