Hey everybody, Happy New Year. Hope its a good one.
My names Justin and I'm from Fredericksburg VA. Currently I own a 1996 Ford Ranger. 4x4. 5 Speed. 4.0 V6. Ext Cab. Short Bed. Shes my daily driver. Just rolled over 180,500 miles last night, still running strong. I'm a new member but I always come here for info. Finally decided to register and get a little more involved with TRS. Look forward to helping everyone out, as well as being helped.
I bought the truck in May 2011 and it had a burnt clutch, 145,00miles on it. As well as a few other issues.
Replaced IAC Valve (week of purchase)
Replaced Wheels and tires (within two months)
Replaced Alternator
Replaced Battery (same day as alternator)
Replaced Clutch
Replaced Throwout Bearing (Did the whole clutch kit)
Replaced Headlight Lenses (week of purchase)
Replaced Turn Signal Lenses (week of purchase)
Oil Changed Every 3000 miles - 4000 Miles with Mobil 1 Syn
Rear Diff Fluid Changed (day of purchase)
Front Diff Fluid Changed (day of purchase)
Trans Case Fluid Changed (day of purchase)
Trans Fluid Changed (day of purchase)
