I found a topper on CL here locally for a really good price. Only bad part was it had to be painted. I deciced to paint the topper and tint the windows. I also painted the bushwacker flares and bumper cap the same.

How is your rubbing issue on the dual shock after the new rims? What is the backspacing on the rims?

Beautiful truck!

Thanks I appreciate it. The rubbing issue stopped after I installed the new rims. The back spacing was enough to fix the issue. The backspacing is -43

Damn that's a clean ranger. Looks great man! Love the paint, wheel and tire combo. The valve covers look great too.

Did you regear the axles? 4.56 gearing would go great with those tires and a 4.0.

Good job.

Thanks I appreciate all the compliments. I am seriously considering regearing the rear end . Getting the truck rolling into 1st can be tricky and it bogs down sometimes. I just don't know what's easier to deal with the first gear issue or losing mpgs on the top end at highway speeds.
