Hi All,
Not technically a Ranger owner, but have the SUV based on the Ranger, the Everest.
Had it from new, now reads just over 100,000kms on the clock.
Im now looking at having a little fun with it. but would appreciate any pointers any of you may have to offer.
Im going to fit bagged suspension, to be able to lower one side to aid access to small children / old people. As my Everest is based on the ranger, this will need a 4 link kit on the rear, but also the strngthening plates to the front arms and top shock mount as I need to get rid of the torsion bars which I didnt know I had until recently. I want to fit the spare tyre ala ranger under the rear of the chassis.
The interior is going from dog vomit beige, to black leather, alcantara on the headlining, upgraded ( ahem ) audio, and repadded seats to remove the church pew feel of the fronts. Finally a respray in the factory white with a Ghost pearl flip in the style of the Gulf racing teams.
This is going to be done over the next 6 months or so, I finally intend to get an older ranger to turn into a ramp truck to take .my TR4 rally car and spares.
