Hey there, my name's Kellie, and I was directed here by a friend of mine. I'm currently driving my second Ford Ranger. I originally owned a 1987 Ranger, automatic, 2.9, four wheel drive. It was a great truck and the engine could have kept on going, but the transmission gave out. I sold it to a friend who had more experience with transmissions and moved on to my second, and current, Ranger.

Right now, I drive a 1994 four wheel drive Ranger. 4 liter engine, V6. I've been driving it for about a year, and the owners before me hadn't put a lot of effort into maintaining it. Since buying it, I've made various small, and some larger repairs, most recently having the rear brakes replaced.

I just removed the front bumper, sanded down the rust, and repainted it. I also painted around the lights and the grill, and the molding over the tires. All were previously gray, but match a lot better now that they're black. My next body project for it is the rear bumper, which I'll have to completely replace. I also replaced the stereo today, but my next project is the speakers.



Does anyone know what size the speakers are in a 94? I'm currently running stock. Thanks!

Welcome to the forums, that a damn nice truck. You've come to the right place for ranger stuff some real good people here. I like what you did to the front looks way better now. Not sure about the speakers but I can look it up. What all do you have planned for your rig or are you going to leave it stock?

Thanks!

I'm looking at getting a custom rear bumper built, but for the most part, I'll probably leave it stock. It's got some mechanical issues that need to be addressed, like new ball joints, u joint, a new rear differential cover, right e-brake, etc, etc. It's got some serious rust issues, too - I guess living it's whole life in Southeast Alaska isn't agreeing with the undercarriage too much.

After I get it mechanically sound, I'll probably look more into having some more fun with it.
