89 Ford Ranger SAS

[FordRanger89]

So I did some more stuff.

I had to build mud flaps (finder flares are coming) I got a fix-it ticket..... They look kind of dumb but there ant much I can do about it.

I built a new track bar mount. Now my track bar and drag link are more level.

I also added some support to my pasinger side steering.

I moved my coil buckets forward an inch. They were too far back.

I cut my finders a little......

I was kind of weld crazy. I welded the pumpkin to the tubing on both sides. I also filled all the crimp holes with weld (they were leaking a bit).

lastly I did the 60/40 seat build. I want to have a center console and cup holders!!!!!

So a little up-date. I am horrible at taking pictures as I go.... but I have before and after pictures.

So, first thing I did was modify my coil buckets to use 6" tj Rough country coils.

Then I did High steer using chevy outers.
I bought a 75 chevy dana 44 off craigslist for $100.
Then sent the passenger side to dutchman axles to get drilled and taped.

Then I built a new track bar mount to make my drag link and track bar level.

And that is how she sits today.
Drives amazing: no pump steer at all. Really smooth ride!!!

I also put finder flares on, and got a summer set of wheels and tires so I can save my KM2s. I got the wheels for $100 at a junk yard!!!!
