Blew the front passenger brake line Tuesday and parked it for the week.

Got around to fixing it today.

Pretty sure this is an s10 topper. Screwed some 2x3s to raise it up a bit and it hangs off the back a couple inches. Itll do the job for now. Need to find a rubber flap and some magnets for the back then ill be happy till i find one made for a ranger.

Been really content with it as of late. Only have a couple more to-dos but its ready for winter duty as is. The DIY bumper is on hold at the moment. I want to take my time and make it nice(ish) and i dont want to roll around without a recovery point until winter passes. To build it i have to cut off the old hitch since its welded to the frame, then make a cardboard template, then burn it out, and weld it up.

Tossing around the idea of throwing a bead in a couple of spider gears kinda like a poor mans LSD but not a full Lincoln locker before winter.

Really need to do a 06+ ranger mirror swap asap. I have to re-adjust mine back up every 3 days or so.

Hopefully by next spring/summer i can find a carpet that will clean up and a lund lighted visor at a junkyard.

Installed with deep cleaned trim and visors

Also got the matching 4x4 shifter installed

Hey Rusty, sorry to bother you with this old thread but I actually held onto it this long - knowing I'd dive into mine one day. That day has come and I've collected all the things I need except the fabric. Where did you get the fabric for the headliner?

I have not been able to find a decent match, especially when it comes to matching the visors and already wasted a few bucks trying to get there - the reason for resurrecting this thread and asking the question.
