That's freaking awesome never new they made an adapter for those lines.
 
Found the right u joints locally at the O'Reillys . One joint is a combo . The shaft is out of I don't know what yet but just happy it'll be finished in a couple hours . Last thing is braided line about 38" long . Coworkers good friend runs a local performance shop that makes lines so I'm running by during lunch to get one made with -4an female fittings

Also picking up some pinion angle shims

Driveshaft sets a lil to straight right now at almost 0degrees so I'm going to shim in a couple to be safe

Just slightly at 60-65 so tomorrow gonna shim and see .

Besides that went out last night to a local meet with the fam and friends . Got a lot of love on the ranger , people see the bed and stop, start lookin a realize what's in the engine bay . And start asking questions.

Few weeks ago had a photographer snap a few and this is one of them at another meet right before the t5 went in

Thats a cool picture. Hows the t5 treating you so far? Still up on the fence if i should just buy one or save up for a TKO. Im hard on transmissions.
What gearing did you end up with on your explorer rear swap?
 
T5's are a lot cheaper . Parts are available that are stronger and yet come out cheaper I feel in the end . I watched my boss throw 5k at a tko after it's all said and done . Just to put it in . I'll go to the jy and pull another or buy the lower cluster for $120 and a 3 gear for upper cluster for $60 .time will tell since this one is used and how long it will go. But just rowing gears is a awesome feeling again .
Wife snapped a pic at the meet last night with our lil group . She drives the tbss in the middle

Those SS are sweet. Ive been following you on Instagram. Wish it was that easy for me to go to the JY to get a t5 no one in a few hundred miles have them. When you do find them they want $700 or more for them.
 
Bro, that's some nice shots there. Trucks are looking good and that's super cool the wife heads out with ya in her own whip. I see the bug craze is everywhere. There's a local club that's deep with some slammed bugs around me. My c4 is soon to get a treatment, then maybe back on the road.

Nice seein you making some headway on the truck yourself there brotha . Thanks guys .

So lately I've been doin a lot of reading on trying to add a lil more angle to the ranger . But with me having a beam setup, There's not much out there for info on rangers doing what I do . So I ventured off into Google land and looked at other fords with boxs and see what splines and lengths they have . Well ford either has a 32 spline or a 36 spline box in most the truck chassis . I found a 2000 f250 pitman arm that is 1..25 inches longer in a 32 spline I'm going to test . Should get a few more degrees of steering angle for it and maybe a faster turning response
