its coming along great, i cant wait to see it done!

and i still want to race it, ranger vs ranger, for the entertainment of youtube

 

How much of a head start do I get?

 

Negative 20 lengths

 

my god those tires are fat. where in the depths of your brain did this idea come from ! so far i love it! but when it rains wont it turn your stacks into rust buckets?

 

Not a problem for something that only sees track time.^^^

 

BINGO. My brain was thinking about donuts at the time.

 

the way i see it is.. you'll have time to go down the track, turn around and go back to the start line by the time i make it down once

by the time your done.. i'll probably be running 5.13s f/r and maybe be up on some 36s

 

LOL Yeah but atleast you can go offroad. Maybe that will be my next project. Diesel ranger 4x4. There already is a jeep with a 6.0.

 

a 6.0 PSD?

my next project is going to be a 4bt. and some Rockwells most likely

 

If I could only find a 4.5L Powerstroke V6 from the LCF commecial trucks, I would have a Ranger Diesel 4x4!

 

you need to talk to Evan (rangererv) The dealer he works at has one.

 

Yeah the 6.0 PSD is in a Wrangler, its pretty cool.

Heres a video:

I wonder how much they want for it.

 

he's got too much torque to know what to do with! haha

it just digs in, but either way that thing is sick..
the best part about old muscle cars, rangers, jeeps, off road rigs, etc. with diesels is that the whole time your watching the video your eyes and ears are completely confused

 

Gene is a god.

Steering is fixed:




And instead of making an all new tranny x member, he just modded the one that came with the truck. Nice!

 

thats badass. cant wait to see it done

 

I cant wait to see it in person! Hurry and get it back to Texas!

 

whats that huge outlet/inlet lookin thing for?

He only lives a few miles from my house

 

lol that's a nice job on the steering issue.
That looks like the inlet from the lower rad hose.

 

that makes sense.. but its fawking huge!

 

It is in fact for the cooling hose. Diesels make a lot of heat. LOL

 

LoL love the alternator sticking out of the hood, I mean with the look of the truck you expect like a blower but its a alternator

 

are you still planning on driving it on the street? i thought you had mentioned that but i don't remember.

 

Yeah still "planning" we will see how hot it gets, EGT's, driving around. Will be running a water injection system so it should help a bunch.

 

boy that is a tight fit.
