Pics pics pics...

I'd do wheels and tires first. that seems to always have the biggest affect.

freddie 01-30-2009 09:40 AM

I think your first "mod" should be showing R-F pics!!! Lol

How about some details about it in the meantime.. miles, auto/manual, etc.

robert99ranger 01-30-2009 09:41 AM

Awesome dude, we need pics though.

Everytime I want to do something I browse the how-to section and usually get some ideas!

04blackedge 01-30-2009 09:51 AM

Your not going to put an RCD unless you get lucky and find it used, they don't make them anymore.

zabeard 01-30-2009 09:53 AM

pics!

Trent no one has it in stock?

04blackedge 01-30-2009 09:56 AM

Theres probably a couple places right now but I bet that won't last too long, it sounds like he isn't ready to buy it anytime soon.

zabeard 01-30-2009 09:57 AM

Yeah I figure there has to be a few out there. If that is what someone wants.

hey guys sorry for not posting pics as sooner. AS you can see the truck ahs 145000 km on it. I got it for 8 grand. its auto, The only thing that is wrong with it is the center arm rest is broken. So if anyone has one or knows were to get one could you please give me a heads up.

Nice truck is it a manual???????? also in the first pic looks like your rear wheel is toed in bad or is that the way it looks from maybe a lil flex on the snow bank? Aslo if you ever need something just post up in the classifieds.

Blackonblackfx4 01-30-2009 11:06 PM

My Armrest is broken too. Junk! Wood screws are currently holding it together

Ford04Ranger4.0 01-30-2009 11:11 PM

manofak 01-30-2009 11:30 PM

his console looks like mine when i got mine but the dealer fixed it for free

manofak 01-30-2009 11:39 PM

oh, his console looks exactly like the expo console in my truck. do the FX4's not come with that 60/40 bench bs?

08XLT4x4 01-31-2009 12:02 AM

I think the first "mod" you should do is fix the arm rest and clean the interior! Nice truck though
