5.0 EFI Ranger from Long Island NY

[ProStreetRob]

Hi All

New here but not at all new to Rangers, this is my 4th Prostreet Ranger. Looks like a great forum and I'm looking forward to hanging out and joining in.

It's a 91 that the former owner did a 5 yr labor of love full frame off rebuild.
Nothing to radical but a lot of subtle changes and great mods that made a world of difference before and after. Got it for a great price and it runs and drives like a dream...

Thanks

Hedman but they ended up having to be modified and now there silver and look pretty crappy One of my next mods is to clean them back up.

In the mock up pics it looks like they clearanced the PS Chassis a bit to clear the headers and on the DS it looks like they used a combo of two different headers and cut a couple of tubed to modify them to fit

Cant see much of them but this is it now

seen that around. neat little truck.



may i suggest as a winter project to consider pulling all of the rivoted brackets and bridging off to clean treat and paint them and the frame areas so it is actually restored in the frame department....rust never sleeps.


the four link lower need skating and beefing. many tie em up with a ds hoop as well.


expectations perceptions and opinions for these vary wide and far.
