New guy from Maryland

[TMKMatt]

Hey guys Matt here, I have been a ranger enthusiast since I had my first in 1996 which was a lowered 1989 model. Recently got back into the Ranger world by picking up a 1985 XL 4x4. 2.8 V6 with 5 speed manual. Nearing 300,000 miles and overall in decent condition. Very little rust and will be fixing that and hopefully getting some fresh paint this spring.

First real modification was a set of 16" Explorer wheels with 245/75/16 Tires which gave it about 2" more in ride height over stock.

Here is a photo of what it looks like now
