heres my 90 b2 4wd. i got it from a friend who drove it till it blew a head gasket. he lost his job so he could not afford to have it fixed or to even do it himself so he said i could have it. im only into the cost of the gasket set cuz i did the heads my self at my college shop. hopefully in the next couple weeks it will be running with a small lift, by the way it already has the d35

the day i got it:




after the first day of working on it:

another update: the b2 is registered and insured, $395 later. i went to put gas in it from a gas can i had and i noticed a puddle beneath the gas tank. the notorious rbv fuel filler neck. so as i lower the tank to replace that one of the two fuel lines to the pump break. none of the crappy parts stores have a replacement in stock so im stuck going to the stealership for a simple fule line.

ok, finally another update. the headlights were toast on the deuce so i went on the bay and picked these up:

installing today and ill post picss when im done. the only downside is they use the 9004 bulb so i have to "fix" them to fit the 9007 like i did to the stockers

Hmm...

I kind of dig those lights.

I might have to get some for the Danger Ranger.

Are you lifting this BII at all?

i have coil spacers for it right now that i need to put in the front but i keep trying to talk myself into a 4 inch lift instead. so i havent done anything to the suspension yet. plus the rear springs are so saggy that they're inverted so im thinking exploder rear springs w/ the 4 inch front. i have a pro comp 5.5 that i bought for my 2wd 94 ranger but i may sell that to fund the lift for this and just do the spacers on the 94 instead. if you look close at the left of the b2 you can see the side of the 94
