Most ask so I'll say it first. Tires are bald 35X12.5X15's (I love bald tires as they don't break parts) It's a 4.0L with a 5spd manual, 3.55 gears and I welded the 8.8 rearend (lincoln locker) The t-case had electrical issues so I pulled the motor and manually locked it into 4 low. The dana 35 front end spins both tires and you can't turn one wheel by hand when its in the air which makes me think its a limited slip. But, after hearing on here that "rangers never came with a LS front diff" I don't know if it's locked or not, but with the hubs locked in it bucks and kicks and won't turn without drivetrain binding. Someday I'll pull it apart.
After swamping it up to the headlights in mud/water, it sucked water into the filter housing and choked it. So, I wanted to run a snorkel but am (1) cheap and (2) hate the look of homemade ABS pipe running up an A pillar and (3) am cheap (did I mention that I'm cheap?) So I sealed the filter housing with silicone and routed a piece of tubing into the heater air box. Now if the cab is full of water up to the top of the fire wall, I might run out of air...but if the cab is full of water, I must of been in water for a while so whatever. (pictures of that later)
After I get the rear end welded/bolted back in I'll take pictures of the way I'm flipping the shackles so I can pull the bolts and drop the suspension down for loading/unloading in my toy hauler. With 35's, its too tall to come through the door.
