hey everyone

[tjdeerslayer37]

hello all, im T.J. i live in southeast michigan. im 17.

my biggest hobbies are longbow and recurve building, hunting, fishing, baseball, bowling and anything outdoors.

ive got a 91' ranger 2wd 4 banger 5 speed. i just got the truck and ive been working on it quite a bit lately, it needs a bit of work but it runs and shifts good which is what i was looking for.

ive been building bows for 3 years now. i take pride in the stuff i make and occasionally i sell a few to pay for more materials and tooling.

heres a few pics.

heres the truck.

pretty rusty underneath. i have to replace 4 or the 6 body/cab mounts and all the bushings. i took off the old mounts this week and a friend is making the new ones. theyll be bolted on after i remove the rest of the rivets from the frame stupid rivets.

i need to do ball joints on it, brakes, and replace the wheel cylinders but i already have them. my dad is a bigtime welder at ford (top in his plant) so hes going to make me a hitch receiver for it.

ive got 150 coils and leafs but im not sure if theyll fit? i asked in the 2wd suspension section to find out. once i get the money ill get some rancho shocks for it too. and eventually some bfg all terrains unless i find a good deal on something else similar.

sooner or later it will be a hot orange. but theres body work to do before any painting will be done.
