I understand the being different deal and thats cool, how else are you suppose to make your truck different from the guy down the street.

What are your plans with the bed ? Do you plan on going with a notch cover or just leave everything exposed ?

Also how big a wheel and tire combo will you be running ? That will definately determine what you will need to do under the hood to make everything work properly.

I think i am going with 17 in and low profile tires. i want to leave it open and weild some different type of brackets and what not inside it. maybe put the tanks under the bed and the compressor (s) on an angled wall that cover the fuel cell. I think i am going to smooth out the rear this summer. i have two tailgates i think i am going to peice together to smooth it out.

also do you know of any good active mini truck forums. i love this one though.. just looking for one with more answers then me asking the questions.

5 Gallon 4 Port Air Tank

however I did just put a switchbox, gauges and air bags as what came up because There is not one in particular that I would highly recomend.

I will be updating this when I find you some more things.

Also if you are looking for answers and even ask some more questions check out rangerpowersports.com.

Four link: http://suicidedoors.com/SuperLift,SuperPivot4-LinkKit.php

Bag bracket kit: http://suicidedoors.com/Pre1997FordRangerBagBracketKit.php

And here is the round notch : http://suicidedoors.com/Round8StepNotchKit.php

I would give them a call and see what they can do about throwing a kit together with the stuff you want. I know that bag bracket kit comes with a few things you do not need, like rear bag brackets, because you get them with the four link.

So you cave a dollars on that and they should be able swap in the round notch for the regular notch the kit comes with.

And talk with them about price if you do go through them, or even if you do not talk with the guys and they will definately work with you.

And one last thing I some things like tanks and compressors and what nots, I would check around other places, ebay, and what not, it will help save you some money as well.

Well with circle tubing I would recomend nothing smaller than 3in diameter and at least 3/16 think.

I know when I rebuild my fram I will be using 2x3, 3/16 thick.

But that round tubing will probably get expensive, check around and do some price shoping first.

Here is my 94 ford ranger. I modified the suicide doors brackets a little for the front. My front shock mounts use the anti sway bar mount. The height of my brackets are set up to lay a 20 with 235 rubber. On with the pics, hope it helps.

The notches for the tie rods are huge cause i measured for 20's, but i would prepare yours for something bigger than 18's cause this is the second time i did mine. Which is not the easiest thing to do.
