Well Im almost done my project, but thought i would still post it up anyways.

Started off with my 1987 Ranger, had a 3" body lift, on 31's

I bought a 6" BDS lift kit, for the truck. Instead of double-stacking blocks in the rear im just using the new 4" block out of the kit. I also swapped in exploder springs, and interwove them with my old Ranger springs.
Picked up a D35 and 8.8 Out of an exploder, for the new axles
Decided to put in 410's at each end with a locker in the rear. Im looking into a locker for the front. But not till after the new year. When i can afford it. Ialso am spray-bombing it as i think it was time to get rid of the shit brown colour, lol, im just flat-blacking it as it will be easier to spray when it gets dented/sctrached. I'm gonna be running 35" GoodyearMTR's.

Hopefully, the truck will be rolling again before the new year. After the new year i'll be looking into dual t-cases, and maybe some captains chairs out of a bronco. As soon as its done their will be some trail pics going up to see what this bitch will be able to do
:yahoo:
 
and the old pornos do double duty as masking for paint :D
 
Can't afford newspaper but can afford porno's, LOL :icon_thumby:
 
Ok, atleast I'm not the only one to notice that! Nice work on the truck so far, should look pretty nice when it gets all done.
