Project: Double D
Hey everyone,
figured I would make a project thread since I've been working on my truck the past few weeks. I call it double d because it is my daily driver right now, hoping to make it into a project truck only in the next year or two though.
Truck:
2003 ford ranger xlt 2wd
3.0L
torsion bar front
8.8 with 4.10 gears in the back
automatic
goal:
drop the truck a little bit, add some power to the 3.slow, make it look nice.
have fun, and learn a whole lot more.
what I did today:
during:
finished:
and some more pictures of my truck about 2 weeks ago all cleaned up:

update:
bought the pulleys today =]
Question: do you have to have air tools to install the pulleys? I do not have access to any air tools and would like to install them my self but if i have to have air tools then i can not do it my self.
also hoping to be buying reindexed keys on wednesday.
got another question: if i were to get a 5" flip kit for the back would the back sit a lot lower than the front with the new keys in the front?
