So here it goes old man had this in his back 40. Been sitting since '06 he was orig. owner so when i got it, it had 119,000 miles not bad. has a dent in driverside rear cab and bed but its fixable. So i towed her home and popped the hood found a 4.0 auto 1354 with new 4yrs ago plugs wire oil filter everything. Seems he thought a headgasket went out. Had to remove carpet due to mold and grass. Then me and my dad Powerwashed her, paint seems good need to polish it out tho. ran her found out water leak was bad freeze plug replaced it and 300miles later shes still runnin strong. Installed a 3" BL and made new bumper brackets and sectioned the rear hitch 3"s to raise it up. Also put my stock premo explorer 16" wheels with 32s on it and ditched the 29s. So all im into doing now is installing new coils in front to remove sag and add some lift and gonna try to find some 33 - 35s to put on the old 15's. Oh last i built my own front receiver so i can snag my winch off my 78 f350 if i need it. Grand total in this rig is 500 bucks 300 for ranger 200 for registration tags plates and etc.
