cummins 4BT ranger

[Muddycowboy]

for this article in the diesel builder magazine website.

cummins 4BT pushing 115hp 200lb-ft torque and to top it off a highschooler built it. id like to give him some props.

 

[sasdranger]

his dad helped too

and i don't like it, i want a 4bt... i'm just not one for overplayed magazine trucks, i'm all for purpose built and playing.

That have hydro assist brakes?

Deisels don't have vacuum to run a vacuum booster...... Yet the booster is still behind the master cylinder.

Or is there a pump to run vacuum accessories?

[Sunk]

That bumper is ugly as hell.

Vacuum pump.

yea like that kid built that himself and paid for it all.
why waste your time making a truck look all 4x4 when its a 2wd. love to see him jump that truck, give him 10 ft and the spindles shear. should have a solid front axle. dont like the truck.

Vacuum pump.

That would make the most sense, as there is a vacuum booster on the fire wall.

I just didn't know if the person that posted knew for sure.

yea i posted a thread with the youtube videos a while ago, nice truck but not practical.....blows too much smoke too

 

[wahlstrom1]

^^^^If you read the comments he say's he blew a boot on the intake coupling and therefore wasn't making any boost, hence the thick smoke. 90% of the smoke will clear up under boost.

I'm debating if I want to swap in my 4bta or not because of the weight...my beast is already at the 5k mark, and heavier aint good offroad...

the engine swap is the only redeeming feature of that truck.

the rest of it should be sent to the crusher...the gay ricer paint, retarded giant chrome stacks, transformers bumper...and sweet "cowl induction" hood

 

[Ozwynn]

I like the 4bt ....... the yellow paint is all right. I like the head lights. the rest looks gay. but I like the fact it took skills to do it. instead of trashing it you guys should appreciate the amount of work that went into it.

 

[Muddycowboy]

i think some people have resentful daddy issues. im sure if you guys had a person to pay for and help build your dream truck you would turn it down in a blink of an eye.

 

[Wicked_Sludge]

^ im not sure that statement makes sense...but if its a shot at the guys that are bashing the truck, "daddy issues" have nothing to do with good taste.

I for one like it! good truck!
