looks good bud, im diggin the plaid its kind of trippy lookin with the countour of the headliner and all. that rattle can paint looks good too, spray bombers FTW! keep it up!

 

[Andres629]

Thanks all! I'm glad people are diggin' the build other than me, it's cool to hear that. I ordered up new shocks for the rear end today, will have 'em by tomorrow, and am working on a way to reconnect my new e-brake cables. Keep y'all posted!

 

[Andres629]

Well, got out wheeling these last couple weekends. The maiden voyage was a huge success! Got a few pictures from this weekend, so I'll share them! In the works is getting it all locked up... I'm looking to get an ARB Air Locker up front, and just run L/S out back. Anyhoo, on with the pictures!

Bit of a hillclimb

My buddy Clayton doing same hillclimb in his stock 89 BII. Awesome!

Playing in a little snow. Kris in his locked 90 Ranger breaking trail.

Me following Kris' lead.

Almost made it through this ditch! His rear bumper just got caught on a rock and slowed him just enough to not have enough momentum to make it over. Winchin' out!

See? Haha.

Cut in my own trail.

Scoping out a line.

Pin 'er!

A bit of rock crawling. Woohoo!

Tricycle!

Off the ground.

Stufffffff.

You're telling me! It makes me angry sometimes... haha. There's a guy here in town builds rock crawlers and stuff a lot, I'm going to get him to build some custom extended radius arms for it. Then next on the list is an air locker up front and a locker of some sort out back.

You don't have very much snow up there! WTH?

 

[Andres629]

Haha, I know man! In town we had 6" of snow for a couple days and that was all. Up at about 5000 feet there's still about a foot and a half-two feet of snow. But lower, there's not a lot!

 

[Andres629]

Just a quick update... Seeing as I now have some new dents and some sweet BC pinstriping, she's getting a new coat of paint today. I'll post up pics when I get them.

 

[MountainMike]

Andres, any update buddy?

Been a long time and I haven't even checked out your thread for some reason.

She's looking really good, keep it up you crazy Canuck

*edit* Oh, and just for you...

 

[multiranger]

Dude them are some sweet looking pics!! Love the truck!

 

[Andres629]

Hmmmmm... not really any updates. I made a show-off thread though. CLICKY!

Umm, I also painted the cab to get rid of that ugly place where the stripe was, so now it's solid red. Also got some new tires yet to be mounted, some 33x12.5 TSL's. Other than that, she's been parked for a while. Got a '71 Land Cruiser I'm trying to sell, and insurance came up on the Red Sled, so it was cheaper to insure the Cruiser for a while than the Ranger. Being a poor college student sucks, no money to throw at my truck anymore. Once the Cruiser sells though I'll have some money to throw it's way.

*edit* In the process of making some half-doors, though!

Well, just a little update for all a y'all. Lost a pile o' gears in the A4LD, so decided to take a different route... You can say hello to an Explorer M5OD in the next week. Going to start the swap tomorrow. Stay tuned!
