Yet another project

[North Idaho 5.oh]

Got a call from a guy here locally, and he said he had this old ranger he wants to sell.
Has the 4.0, manual trans, electric shift case, manual windows, ex cab, decent body and a nice interior. Has brand new 235/75/15 cooper at3’s on it and the best part.... I drove it home!!! Got it cheap enough (though I don’t need it) and I’m gonna fix her up and get her in better shape.
The transmission is having issues and has a hard time going into 1st or 2nd without a fight. Has a new clutch, but still does the same thing. I bought a transmission a few months ago for another project that fell thru, so I will be putting it in this one!
The front end needs to be gone thru as well (typical TTB stuff) and maybe a front differential. Aside from the mentioned stuff this thing is actually a decent little truck!

Nice truck man. Is that a 92? I like those door steps, not sure how well they really fit with stepping in but those little trucks sit high

It’s a 93... the 92 was a square body. The side steps are home made and are well made, but they are coming off. This truck does sit high, but no real need for the steps.

Another Good thing is that this thing has ZERO rust!

I might try to make you a swap on them if you got nothing else to use them for.
The wheels are a different year (unless they had options on those) these are 93-94, 95-6 didn't have the 10 holes

That sounds good. I could always use a set of deer hoof wheels. Are you near north Idaho ?

Sorry NI5.0, I didn't mean swapping the wheels. That was a photo I posted not long ago showing someone else what the 93's were, they're the ones on my 93 Ranger.
Not sure what I could find to swap really, can't afford a lot of postage, and I'm in southern Oklahoma

My apologies Josh B. I misread your message.
the wheels on this truck definitely look like they are from a 92 era truck.
