Show me your off-road Ranger, tell me what makes it a good off-roader, and what you'd do different today.

Not a ranger, but…….y’all have always made me feel welcome.

I keep saying this is my spare parts pile. Started as a 1988 2 wheel drive BII.

5.0L stock rebuilt roller with Holley Sniper throttle body, ignition and digital dash.

Backed by a rebuilt C6 with a reverse manual valve body. Behind that is a Northwest Fab doubler in front of a NP 205. I feel it’s pretty much bulletproof.

Stretched the wheel base 4 inches up front and 8 in the rear with F-O-A 14 inch coilovers. The longest arms I could fit on a 4-link rear and 3 link front.

It rides on Dodge AAM’s with ARB lockers turning 3.73 gears on 37 inch bead locked Coopers. Steered with a full hydraulic PSC ram.

All while keeping the AC!!! It is a Texas rig after all.

9.5 warn winch up front when it just won’t go anymore.

Still tweaking it.

Changes to come……

1. A more snug fuel tank.
2. Cleaner enclosures for the rear shock mounts.
3. Snubbers on both axles.

Still playing with it, it’s proving to be pretty formidable and forgiving on the rocks.

Pics to come.

Sorry, it rotated some of the images……..and I’m technologically challenged and can’t fix it.

It's something with the forum software since the upgrade. We are all still trying to figure out the quirks. So, it's not just you.
