A 01 Ranger named sniper. [slooow build.]

[getrdone52]

What would you plan to take off the '94 besides the bed? I personally would get the '01, or get both Then when your all done just part them out, you might end up making a profit. How much are they wanting for the '01 and what's wrong with it? You can't beat the price of the '94 though... Tough choice

Well, I can only scrape up enough for one. And what i want off the 94, is the whole front clip, and the bed. I like the 94 look alot more than the 01.
Also on a side note... I got new tires! A used set of Primewell PA100's. 235/75/15 A bit small... but they will be alot better than the mis matched dry rotted balloons that are on my truck now.. 5 primewells, 4 on Jeep YJ rims. $150 and still have tons of tread left. I think it was a good deal no? Hopefully they'll last until i can get enough to buy a set of 32"s Also threw the old rollbar back on my truck, just cause i was bored.. lol Come tuesday,I'm gunna put my tires on in shop class, change the oil, grease the front end, and Crank up the torsion bars. Is it OK to max them out?... i want to get as much lift as possible, i dont really care about ride quality..

If you max them out u might en with ball joint issues. or worst. cv axle issues.

Ok then, What would be enough to level out my trucks crazy rake? its annoying the hell out of me :x

 

[Ranger Sport Honduras]

half inch or an inch would be enough i guess.

You can crank you t-bars up to about 2 inches without suffering hardcore bad things happening upfront. But don't go past 2 inches.

If you end up grabbing the 01. Can I have dibs on that visor? Haha. I've always wanted one but cannot find one.

 

[getrdone52]

I would get the 2001 because it has more parts you can take off of it, like the grille guard, tail lights, seats, a new grille (that sucks that happened) and you wouldn't have to worry about it not fitting. All you would have to do with the body filler is sand it even with everything and paint over it. And if you don't want the cab extender, I want it!

I already called it But i think he's gong with the '94 anyways.

 

[mdn14]

Cab extender does not equal visor haha. Oh well. It was worth a shot in the dark. Haha

Yea, I'm gunna snatch up the 94. since i want to make my 01 look like a 94

 

[getrdone52]

I couldn't think of the name of it haha but I think I got the main point across. But ya they are really hard to find and expensive if you buy them from Lund.

Sad, but good luck with the "rebuild" or customization! I will be following.

Well sniper got a few goodies today, I got my back tires put on, but the front backspacing is too narrow, so im going to see if i can find some wheel spacers These tires are amazing! I dont know why so many people are giving them bad reviews... i havent done any hard offroading with them yet, but on sloppy dirt roads, holy shit! You can slow down a bit for a turn, then halfway through hammer the skinny pedal and it takes off like a rocket! No spinning at all! I cant wait to get the fronts put on! Also, i put the front grille out of a 99 on it, and painted it black. I'm heading back to the JY tomorrow to get the turn signals and headlights, to fill in the spaces. And mabey the front bumper. Anywho Pictures! [not very good ones at that]

My super awsome radio.. lol

I have that there cause the old raido stopped working, so i put it there and hooked it up to fill the space. gauges dont work lol. If i can get some money tomoro, I'll see if i can get spacers, and a radio... Mabey my buddy kevin has one.. Also, i think i'll be taking the fender flares off, i dont really like fender flares.... what do you guys think i could sell them foor? theres not a scratch on them, they're just muddy... and would be cleaned spotless before the sale....I wanna try to go for just a plain jain work truck look... no fender flares, no fancy grille, nothing. Just a plain jane work truck. until i can get the money to buy a long travel.

[also sorry for typos I'm using my old laptop which i havent used in like.. 4 years? lol]

Well, today was a very very bad day.... Icey roads caused me to spin out.. and slide side/backwards intothe curb.. rolled once and landed on my side in a guys front yard.. It's pretty pittiful when you live in such a SELFISH community that 12 cars pass by a scence of a accident with a 17 year old kid, scared to death and frezing his ass off... [me] and i also found out that my father only put liability on my insurance, not knowing what the word ment... so i dont get any money back from the accident... so im vehiceless for a while...
Anywho.. Picutres..

Guess im gunna be in the paper tomoro.. Luckily a few minutes after i rolled, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police showed up.. then shortly after that the ambulance and fire department.. the officer said it was manditory that they be all called in..

 

[shane96ranger]

Oh piss, that sucks!!! I'm glad you're OK.

Yea it does... but, I do have an idea brewing in my head.. i have a 92 Ranger ext cab, with a badish frame... and the frame in sniper is still very good..
do the cab mounts and stuff from a 01 Ranger match a 92 Ranger's body?...
