My idea of a Shelby Ranger if there would have been one.


:drool:;missingteeth;:icon_surprised: I co own a tire shop I want to see smoke til they pop. Ok that will have to wait til we can have a 4.6 smoke show. I will throw some skins on to do a video of a tire fire. Haven.t done that since my 215 buick powered chevy astro.:D

Yeah I want to see a 4.6 ranger pop the tires!! Don't be teasing us OS :D
 
here are the pics from Last night.. Video failed to upload :annoyed:

Here is pretty much how I have to set it up to get a jack under the i beam

The joy of a low vehicle. I would never tease a smoke show it will happen as soon as it is a runner.
 
Lot of progress today.. 1st of all the ABS is fixed.. The issue was the Module.. How I figured it out. There are two grounds over by the battery. One goes to the ECM the other the ABS Module. I connected the aligator clip on my test light to the positive side on the battery. probed the wires. Both ECM and ABS lit up. Turned on ignition ECM side the test light bulb went out. ABS side it stayed on (Should have gone out)... Installed the new used ABS Module and BAM light out!!! I hope this helps some one..
 
For those who don't know what to look for here is the ABS Module it's on the right and it's location is to the left of the ashtray behind dash.. Takes a 10MM and a 7 mm to get it out.. forgot camera so Blackberry pics...

OH...so thats what that thing is. I've taken several dashes apart and always looked at that thing like wth is this?? lol. Good to know I spose.

Yep.. have no idea what the thing on the left is.. It says do not drop so I spose it is delicate or important...

I'm new to the site and have read this entire thread. Learned much and have gotten many ideas as to both how and what to do to my 98 Ranger and now I'm sorry this build is somewhat finished. As to if the ABS discussion was of any help, it solved my problem as I had checked everything else and didn't know how to check the module or even where it was. Thanks and you do first class work. Anyone that has ever done body work knows that you have to be very good to make black look good as it shows every little flaw. I can see none in your work. First class work and you deserve every compliment that everyone has given you. :icon_thumby:

Well been over at the shop most of the morning... Nothing is going right. 1. Washed the truck really good only to find out the sunroof is leaking on the passenbger side. I am hoping it is the gasket cause I have't put the silicone where the instructions said to put it yet... 2. I fixed the wiring to the windshield washer pump.. Now it is leaking.. It's had fluid in it for months and never leaked a drop....Good news is everything else is looking good for the most part... So for the most part it has been an :annoyed: day..
 
Not much done today except washing and waxing.. but got a few pictures
oh and I scuffed the inside of the bed getting ready to have a spray in liner put in her..

Here is the stuff I call poopy.. It is great for scuffing for paint to stick.. It also is great to get paint off your hands..

Brand spankin' used eh? Looks like a certified pre-owned plate to me, would I be right?:D How would someone like me get a hold of one of those for the front of my truck lol. Multi, your rig is fantastic man. Even though our truck are being built in different directions it' like a sister truck to mine. Every time you post pics I get inspired to accomplish something and do the same. Keep up the fantastic work my friend,
