UPDATE TO CURRENT PICTURE AND MODS






2006 Ford Ranger FX4 Level II
4.0 SOHC
Fog light Mod. Allows fog lights to be on with high beams.
K&N drop in air filter
LED tail lights/reverse lights
3" PA Body Lift
33x12.50x15 Hankook Dynapro MT
15x8 pro comp series 52 wheels
Straight pipe exhaust Cats still on
Superchips flashpaq tuner
Custom painted hood and grill
Hood mounted spot lights - visionx 4500 HID
100w rear facing halogen lights


Day after picked up from dealer.















Removed the steps





Decided to flex it out and see what she's got stock. Pretty damn good imo















Then I cleaned her up nice and shiny







New tires on!

so freaking smooth on pavement, and quiet to.

and on gravel they grip incredibly well compared to my old tires. minimal spinning, and great breaking performance.

had them in a bit of sand, very fine and loose. not packed at all. with my old tires I had to use 4x4 to get around in it. with these tires 2wd works fine. which is nice.

have yet to test em extensivly in sand and rock though, but from the little bit i did have em in, they work great.

heres a few pics.



















and just to test if they rears rub at flex i went and tested it





they clear the fender flares on the inside by about 1/8" so its perfect. i love em. they pocket in the wheel well nicely.

Unfortunately I don't have my Ranger anymore. I had to get an F150 to lug my kids around. I think I might get another Explorer in the not-so-distant future though.

What kind of LEDs did you use for the tails? I would like to see some pics of them lit up if you could.

I got em from buggman. Don't think he's active on this forum, but he's on a few other ranger forums and sells custom LED's

Ok those of you curious about my LED tailights.

Here's a few pics. It's not completely dark out when I took these, so it doesn't give the full effect but it's decent.


No tail lights on


Reverse lights only

Brake lights on
