first time here second ranger

[makotoseven]

Hey guys, I recently picked up this well cared for example of a 1992 Ranger XLT 2.3 5spd single cab with 89K miles

before i got it the guy JUST did this stuff:

- new battery
- new tires (w road hazard)
- new fuel pump
- new windshield

so i've spent about 600 bucks on it after purchase:

- new headlights
- new instrument cluster (w/tach)
- new RABS unit
- R134a AC conversion/recharge
- glued in the 3 plugs that leak in the transmission

purchase price? 1000 bucks

so far the only lasting issue has been the fuel gauge not working correctly (definitely isn't the instrument cluster, so i have to check the sending unit harness next).

all in all i'm super happy. this is by far the best deal i've ever been blessed with.

Wow, that's a beut for 1,000 bucks! Looks great!

My truck was 1,200. Best 1,200 I ever spent...

That is a nice one. My 92 doesn't look that nice, but with over 450,000 on it, I'm not complaining!

One more fantastic publish! I'll certainly end up being maintaining all of your items in your mind. Thanks a lot. and one more thing I'm looking for forums who have really great suggestions about what's popular and exactly what the very best makeup will be.

fixed the fuel gauge issue. the previous owner installed a new pump and fuel sending unit but the floating arm fell off in the tank somehow. i replaced it, made sure it was secure, and zip tied it.

grand total: $1600 bucks for an awesome truck
