Got this in a trade for an '04 Impala LS i had purchased for my 'GF. Car was an electrical NIGHTMARE! got offered this ranger, and near $1000 ontop, couldn't pass it up since I had nearly nothing into the Impala.

Picked it up and immediately swapped on some stock 4x4 Ranger Wheels and 235/75/15's i had laying around. I am no stranger to RBV's. Have owned 2 '89 Bronco II XLT's, a '93 Ranger Splash Reg Cab 2wd, and now this. Many others in my family as well.

Pic from the day I acquired it. as it sat. completely square 215/70?/14's, horrible aluminum cap. etc..

The very next morning.. I met up with a fellow ranger owner i had met through craigslist. Picked up a Lear Crown Cap for free off of him. and slapped on the 4wd Wheels i had laying around.

a few days later, I was browsing through Harry's U Pull It in Hazleton PA. (my brother is a Manager there). Found a rolled '93 2wd 2.3 Ranger with most of a Rough Country 4" Lift. Nabbed the Rear Lift, 3" Blocks, U Bolts were nearly new with Nyloc Nuts and whatnot. I chose to retain my original Leafs. the Ranger i removed it from had ONE Leaf spring each side? unsual.

A few other additions, no pictures as such yet. Installed my usual Kenwood Excelon Headunit, also painted the Bumpers/Grille/Light Surrounds etc with Duplicolor Truck Bedliner.

Will be updating as I go, it's going to likely be a slow project... Just finished a Tune-Up on it. Found this.

This is where it sits as of now. Currently DD'ing it and enjoying the hell out of it.

Only future plans are to Lift the Front a tad, 2" Spacers, and likely Rough Country 1.5" Leveling Coils. If i can squeeze 31"s on it I'd be happy as a clam.
