Trying to Get TRS-2 Back

[4x4junkie]

Wow, that is awesome you found it and got it back!
I think that truck IMO represented TRS more than any other (I remember following it in the 4Wheel Parts rags as it was built), mostly because it still had an original (RBV) drivetrain (not so swapped out with engines & transmissions & t-cases & axles that there's really nothin Ford Ranger left about it other than the frame & shell). I remember questioning it when you sold it, but I know you had to given the circumstances at the time.

Someone must've been looking out for you to have all the cards fall in the right place all at the right time...

Congrats!

I will start a rebuild thread in the near future.

Good. Looking forward to it. Just to clarify. All I have to do is re-purchase the 20th anniversary banner to help donate to the build.

How do we purchase the banner?

Unless you're accessing the forums through Tapatalk, you should see the banner info at the top of every forum page.

I don't know if I purchased the banner or just donated to the cause, either way, doesn't matter. Maybe after the holidays I can pitch in some more.

Yes. TRS-1 was a 5.0 1st gen.

I'd love to see pictures if there are any.

Which was my idol in high school and was a huge inspiration for my truck. Mine is much watered down but it was fascinating to me what could be done with a truck like mine and a large reason why I have stuck with it all these years.
