Familiar looking truck....
 
NICE, that is a damn good lookin bumper
 
Looks good!

Now if maybe I would get off my ass and build mine...lol

Why does that ranger have an explorer grill? :icon_confused:

Ranger ones look too plane and the regular explorer grill is blah. Always thought the limited grill was the best looking one for the second gens. We just happen to come upon this one at the local wrecker and couldn't pass up the deal for $20.

How familliar does it really look?

bumper looks great :icon_thumby:

i always thought the "limited" grill fit the 2nd gen's the best. the others just dont line up with the other features of the truck very well.
 
I just saw that truck today, the bumper really caught my eye, looks better in person. You do some real nice work CopyKat, not that i get to see it much as it's always heading the the opposite direction.
 
The ranger or the Bronco?

Lots more in store for the Ranger. Need to work on a matching rear bumper.

When I was building it my buddy asked me how much it was going to cost him. Told him to bring a case of beer as I was thirsty (10:00 A.M.):headbang:

Both, I saw the Ranger today and i've seen your Bronco once or twice in town but have never been able to turn around and chase you.
 
Not to be picky but your buddy's front tires look alittle under inflated.

Awesome bumper though.

It looks to me like they are underinflated to account for the treadwear pattern of what looks like a previous case of overinflation. :icon_thumby:

Mental note to self. If I see dude in ranger tailing me and flayling arms out the window.......DRIVE FASTER! lol J/K.

They were used tires and they where on a Jeep that had BAD alignment issues. Yes they were over inflated at one time or they were on too narrow of a rim. 7" rims will do that.
