Newbie from across the pond

Hey I'm Sam from the uk, I have owned my truck for about a month now and I'm almost done correcting what previous owner had mallesterd, and now I'm starting to upgrade and make it mine, I love the lifted and long travel stuff you guys do in the states and hope to do a little of that on my truck, unfortunately there's not many places over here you can really drive something like that, so there not a good after market for parts, I'm not really sure how similar our rangers are to yours so , I'm going to have to find out the hard way,
I drive a 2004 xlt 2.5 diesel,
My plans are to make the truck a 4x2 with possible a Dana rear axle, so I can change the rear gear, because I'm current at something around 4.20 and getting 20-5 mpg and at around $8 a gallon as a daily it's hurting the bank haha
Plus at that kinda mpg I may as well drop in a Small block and enjoy using the fuel a little more
I look forward to chatting to you any seeing your projects

Welcome to the forum Sam

Your Ranger is an International Ranger T6
We have North American Rangers here

Nothing similar but the name, lol, but it IS a good name.
Yours is longer and wider, closer to our Ford F-150 pickups

We lost our Rangers is 2012, last year for them here, but there are rumors that the Range T6 will be built here soon.

Yours was probably built in South Africa, maybe Asia

There is a South African forum here: 4x4 Community Forum

They will have more info for you model Ranger
There are also Australian forums for the Ranger T6 but they would be the Asia built models, which should be the same but............
