[jarfly]

What all needs to be done to put the mazda frount end on a ranger?

 

[Heavyfire14]

the mazda front clip, lights, hood. and tools to do the swap. i think its pretty straight forward.

hell no this is my first truck that i actually liked. i have sweat, blood and my hard earned money in her. plus i paid 4k for her and have like 600 or more in it already.

like i said i WAS just THINKING about doing that.

hahaha wtvr man just kidding.

I wouldn't give up my Ranger for anything... $400 in sound system, $700 in tire/wheels (not including spare), $300 in leveling kit, $150 in EGR system (which is still throwing codes ), and hundreds everywhere else.

So I have about $1700 invested so far in a $1900 truck with hundred more to come... whoops.

haha i know... and i completely forgot about my stereo. so like including that im at 1200 and tomorrow im getting new tires and smogging her and gonna do an oil change so like 1500 not including smog/routine maintence.
