I hate swype. Never got the hang of it. And my fat fingers don't have a problem

Every since I upgraded to JB on my phone, I can't add words to my dictionary so it makes it harder to type the way my phone use to, it knew how I typed. I may try and do a reinstall because my tablet I can add words to the dictionary, did a manual install on it.

Went to the ranger meet today and went great. But due to not having a working temp gauge I didn't know how hit my engine was getting. Well fit there opened the hood and walked away to notice that there was skit of heat coming off the engine. So I got home and went to investigate and my fan wasn't turning on so in a pinch I turned the high on to cool the engine real quick then turned it off and liked around for a loose wire and then looked at the fuse and saw this...

So got a ride to the party's store and got a 30amp fuse since this 20amp one blew and the fan runs once again.

Okay now pics off the meet...

Josh's alarm didn't wake him up so we did.

Bing bling... yes a blown 5.0 gt ranger

The one picture I wanted and got.

And the rest of the trucks

Also escort_gt his starter went out so I took him every where in Lebanon and nobody had his starter in stock so we had to push start him to get the truck going.

Was a good time, except for the starter problems. Thanks for the push start.

No problem, I know you guys would do the same for me.

Got a whole bunch of nothing fine but did change the fuel filter and finally got the arm rest on the driverside door replaced. Some how I had a 9/32 socket in my truck to change the handle.

Yes this was completely busted off on the front from the door.

And back to ugly tan.

upgrade for the door handle is from a fullsize van...certain stripper 1 ton 3/4 ton
with their insert hardware and trimmed fasteners are strong has hell. usually only come in grey but they are stout.

people always bust mine off getting in and out of the passenger side till i started using those.

 

[dangerranger83]

Sounds like something I need to look into since the plastic from any of them I get will be starting to show its age.

I dont think he cares about color much

 

[dangerranger83]

Color, no. But style so at least both are matching in shape, yes.

Be nice to figure out a way to install an "oh shit" handle on the driver and passenger pillar and roof. Getting in isn't a problem for me due to I built the truck for my height, but everybody I know isn't 6ft 1inch either.

Future plans are to find some gen 3 bucket seats and center console put in the truck (the shifter might not like the center console though so tape measure may help me there). These seats, out of an 85, are losing their comfort slowly.

94-97 vans are the ones i have found them on.

my 95 psd has them and the ones in my truck are from a 96.

 

[dangerranger83]

I should be able to find them out at my local yard. No PSD there though but a few vans, you bet.

Hell I'm still trying to finish the two top things on my list still...4wd and the high setting for my cooling fan. Not money stopping me but more like finding the time to do them.

Doing a routine inspection on the truck and find my starter books were backing out so git that fixed but still have my starter issue.

Also I messed to find a different angle plug wire, it's arching to my header.

Impressive build. Followed it for quite a while.
