New Member '85 Ford Ranger 4x4

Hey guys, I'm new to the site and now own an '85 Ford Ranger 4x4.

I just bought this 85' Ranger as a project truck. Reason being, my dad bought one brand new the year I was born and thats how I learned to drive on our farm. We ended up selling it to an older guy who need a way to get around town. I later found out that the truck burned up and is nowhere to be found. So I began my search and finally found this truck which almost looks identical!

Here are photos of the truck coming home. I went ahead and ordered new wheels and tires and 2" leveling springs for the front. Just waiting to get them installed.

Wheels: 15x7 Ultra Type 62
Tires: LT235/75R-15 BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2

Enjoy.

Thanks Guys! I wish it had the overdrive transmition but it will do for now.

Also fyi, I ordered the 2" leveling springs from broncograveyard.com and they are back ordered and they were not able to tell me how long it will be before they are sent. I cancelled the order.
Just thought it would be a good heads up for some people. -May 21, 2014.
