New to me ranger!
Picked me up a new to me ranger for $1500. Talked him down from 2400. It failed inspection cause of a exhaust leak at the driver front manifold. Simple fix.
3.0 244K miles, no signs of leakages, no smoking, new leaf shackles on driver side.
Oh did I mention its a 4x4. So I plan on keeping my old truck for parts, the engine has 170K, pull it and rebuild it for another 100K and swap it out if I end up having any problems with this one. Swapping tires, going to do some touch ups and what not.
Body is in great shape, some dings and chips but much better shape than what my ranger was in when I bought it.
Pics tomorrow.

Yeah, it is. Drove just fine the 30 mile trip.
I have ever intention of pulling my old 3.0, checking the heads and doing an over haul and storing it until its needed.
The truck looks like it's been well maintained, the only problems so far are possibly a bad coolant temp sensor(gauge doesn't work), and dip stick tube is rotted at the top, and the exhaust leak which is an easy fix, just gonna slap some sealer on the spot and throw it through inspection again, then fix it when I get time.
