Well. The title says it all! Beaten ranger! Nice to meet you all by the way. I'm the kind of guy that if he has it, he will use it as what it was made for. It's a ticking 2.9 with exhaust leaks everywhere. It's got a used "rebuilt" (<Lie) motor from an 88 and I already went through the first 5sp tranny. Still owe $400 on the tranny but now when I drive it longer than 40 miles it starts to missfire really badly but the performance does not change. I'll tell all the problems in the right places. I just thought I would introduce my truck as well
. Well I'm here to fix HIM! Thats RIGHT! It's a HE. lol Where do you upload your pics btw? 17yo Caucasian Male. OH! Forgot to say! I have no idea of how many miles are on it, and it can't indicate how many miles are on it. The odometer is broken and the tranny/transfer case and the motor have all been changed with used parts, It just runs. I got it for $450 and it's 4wd with manual hubs of coarse. The only original part on the whole truck other than frame and body is the rear axle, the front axle has already been changed but yet someone still managed to not change the cv's while it was easy, they have about 2 inches of play. I only use them to get out of wet grass when not turning the wheel. I also hear/feel thumping noises and vibration while driving but I can let go of the wheel for almost 3/4 mile without having to steer it straight even when I'm on the highway. And most of the time now, when I take off I can hear a loud tick, sometimes it's a snap. It comes from the rear end.
