That's some serious Ranger there...

@Jim Oaks have a look at this one...
 
Wish it was a 4.0 or V8 with an auto and an Atlas!

Super cool build!

What a build! My birthday was this month. Anyone want to give me that as a birthday gift?
 
Looks like it hasn't even been tested. I would love to see that thing flex.

What's going on here. Sorry for the noob question, but something doesn't look right. Can somebody explain to me how this is working.

That's an amazing build but I'm surprised that it's still sporting a 2.9L.
 
Any videos of this in action?
 
@White rhino I thought you were in California. What brings you to Texas??
