Hey everyone, I picked up a ranger a while back and I did a little reading on them before that. I had never really paid much attention to rangers before I got mine, I really liked the s10. But my buddy was selling his for 500 bucks and I couldn’t pass it up. I did some quick reading to see if I can rely on it and this site seemed to be a good source of information. Anyway, onto the truck.
It’s a 1994 regular cab long bed with a 3.0 Vulcan, 5 speed, 4x4, and approximately 300k miles. (Odo was broken when I got it, had been broken for at least 3 owners. Reads 282 now). Runs like a top but burns a bit of oil and the synchros are pretty shot.
Current mods:
2005 rear leaf packs (4 leafs each pack)
Really crappy glasspack exhaust
Pretty junky 2 tone paint job
Aftermarket wheels, no idea what they are but they were on it when I bought it
2005 60/40 seats
Future mods:
Redo the exhaust (same setup but higher quality. This one is rusted out)
Newer bed with line-X
06+ front end
Repaint same scheme it is now, but better quality
Flip top sunroof
Potentially a leveling kit up front
Have a set of wheels from a Jeep I’m hoping to throw on eventually just to change things up, but I know the front hubs will pose an issue
I’ll post pics once I can figure out how to on this site. I have some questions about my truck but this has been a long enough post already lol

It’s a 99 b3000, 4x4 extended cab automatic. Only damage it a little bend in the hood, ding in the fender, headlight and bumper. I can save the hood and fender. How hard would it be to put a 98-00 ranger front bumper on this truck? Will all the lines match up? We will likely go with new headlights, but a new bumper is just too expensive. Would like to know before I go tomorrow so any help would be very much appreciated.
