So as some of you might have read in the general discussion session I have had quite a few vehicles since the 2004 Level 2, but now i have one i can never get rid of this one is, well, special, I am the third owner of this truck, first my Grandpa, then my Dad Now Me. Now when I got her she needed work, needed a MAF, plugs, Wires, Tires, and it needed some tlc. Well I took her in, changed the Plugs and Wires, the MAF, got new tires, changed the oil and cleaned her. and this is what she is now...

When I Got Her





And Now...









Henrys Muffler redid my muffler from the previous picture.





As I get some more money I'm gonna level her out get some FX4 Stickers, repaint her (color ideas accepted) get some bucket seats out of an explorer and get a rally style push bar with a bug deflector and try to locate some 06 taillights

 

Looks good.

 

Paint it black or lightning blue

 

Thanks and yeah i was thinking lightning blue

The side exhaust looks great, and the 96 Rock sticker.

 

GO FAST ! yum....

 

Vista is better.....

 

Looks good, I'd keep the color, put some tint, nightshade, billet grille, tool box and some lock out hubs.

Dude this is a sharp looking 94. I would leave the paint alone.

 

You know what its funny I bought some rubbing compound and spent like 3 hours polishing it today and i think i might leave it alone but i believe that if i do get it painted i will get that vista blue had it on my 'stang and loved it. In response to the toolbox request, this has kind of been my Craigslist restoration. i have probably spent a total of 50 dollars restoring it, I got a lay in bed-liner free and yesterday got a set inside toolbox (wanted a deep box) for $19 it sits about 4 inches above the bed.

Keep the ideas coming If anybody has build pictures of their Gen 3 Ranger I would love to see them please!!!

 

The Toolbox



Better side angle with the side exhaust

 

I would take it to a muffler shop and get the pipe that comes out of the muffler with one that has been mandrel bent, there is a serious restriction from what the photo shows. 17 years old and still looks great!

 

I would ditch the magnetic cb mount and go with a whip connected to the tool box. I think it would look a lot better.

 

what kind of restriction power or noise, and i am working on getting my hands on some flowmasters so i will have it redone again sometime. i would love to have the whip but i gotta find one on Craigslist first don't wanna pay 40 dollars for the whole mount assembly

 

Can anybody either post your gen 3 builds or email me a link i really wanna get some ideas

 

Well since no one wants to post on this thread anymore ill keep it alive. My project this week has been a leveling kit. Bought a 2 inch kit off craigslist for a 2wd thought it would bolt right up, but it didn't, the coil spring bolt spacers weren't the same size as on a 4wd and the shock spacers didn't fit either so that put me in a pickle. I made it work though put the spacers on and bolted them down with the stock coil bolt and have some Pro Comp ES1000 shocks coming my way they have 3 inches more travel than the stock ones do and I got all 4 for $120 will post pics up as soon as i get those on.

If anyone has Their Gen 3 trucks leveled or has Pro comp ES1000s on their rig post up some pics please.
