Now that I post the specs nobody answers, maybe you're all jealous? Any of you guys have boosted rangers too?

HAHAHAHA NO!!! but i plan on sticking a 6btu turbo cummings into one.....hahahaha a boosted ranger is nothing...

No, 2.3 smoking some 4.0 dohc and v8s is the way to go

I do agree on the idea of putting somekind of ram-air into my fog holes tho!

Be really careful if you do this. I've seen a lot of people hydro-lock their engines by doing that. Your truck would be especially vulnerable since it's so low. It would be really easy to suck water straight into the intake.

On another note, congrats on the STOTM. I really like the change in your truck compared to the first post in this thread. Keep it up! And post more pics of the truck! I've been thinking about flaring my bedsides and fenders for a couple years now. Still trying to make my mind up, but your truck helps.

Love your style, never seen a ranger done like this. Looks great! Similar to the look I am after, except with larger wheels. gotta ask though, whats up with the nerf bars? haha!

Larger wheels? those are 10 inch wide rims with -38 offset... I had a hard time fitting them almost flush to my fenders. At one point I tought it would be impossible to run them. Larger tires on back will come on this summer, but I wouldn't run anything larger than those rims, specially with that amount of drop lol.

I ditched the nerf bars... Just no picture of it without them yet... Waiting for a clean photoshoot. I will try to do it soon. Thanks for the positive comments!

And this is what the truck looked like when I bought it mitch 1 year ago. Changed a lot. It was auto with everything stock. Not the case anymore as you can see.

Hope you don't mind but your truck just made the wallpaper on my iPad. Excellent job!

This was an awesome thread to come back to after a bit of an absence! Great looking ride!

 

[leehinson]

man I love this truck any pointers on how to pull those fenders?

 

[beluga420]

Used a fender roller/puller for front and the bottle-jack technique for the rear.



One little run @ 13-14 psi, you don't hear much because my cam microphone was set lower, but you can hear the turbo boost a bit when it does. Yeah I know I have some surge and need to adjust my BOV spring pressure.


And little walk around before photoshoot. Pictures to come soon.

Your truck is awesome! You oughta put it up on stanceworks.com i think the fitment people need to see this.

 

[beluga420]

Seems like fitment people found it by themselves.. 1160+ likes on Just Stance and 260+ on Ivy League East.. It is proably on other facebook pages too. Truck has popped everywhere on internet, way more than what I was attending. lol
