Kinda funny; it has superlift on the rear quarters and skyjacker on the front
suspension.

The stacked blocks, cobbled rear springs and cobbled spring blocks in the front are among the first things to go.
I haven't decided what to do with it though.
Any thoughts?
 
YIKES! does it run/move? whats it got in it?
 
thats a pretty scary truck! does it have any drive train mods?

good find either way!
 
No drivetrain. The interior is trashed. The usual bundle of wires hanging from the empty radio opening. It has a small rust hole in the cab. Oh, my least favorite part, A sheetmetal back window!
 
mini monster truck??? its what id do since the suspension is garb, and theres no drivetrain.
 
I'm scratching my head looking at that last picture.

Do you mean the fact that it has all that lift and a 7.5?
Or the plastic inner fender pulled loose and laying on the tire?
 
Well, atleast yank everything off and spray it something other than that ugly rust/orange color that the suspension parts currently are sporting.
 
Ah! the rear end has been replaced recently, you can see in the picture two different brake hoses. One connected to the truck. one connected to the rear end. There is gonna be different gears front and rear. There is also some white fluid running out the drivers side axle, the front gears are probably junk.
 
That is an interesting coil spacer, haha.


The suspension is just alll around scary...
I bet the axle wrap is horrible...

I think after you removed all the scary suspension, it would be almost a stock Ranger agian....

I like the the stacked blocks on the rear axle.... hahahahaha. Like thats not illeagal in Michigan... NOT!!!
 
Pull all that shit out from under it and throw it up on rockwells, hack the fenders. Whatever tires you can find and wheel it! If you cant afford rocks, a 14bff+60 combo would suffice.
