brush guard mounted, lower valence removed, pics

So my friend and I (thanks a bunch Jon!!) spent around 8 hours with a bit of torching, welding, and fabbing, but we finally got the brush guard on.

It was $25; let me know what you think...

I'm kind of confused that you are posting this now, but the pics are time stamped in 04.... camera time way off? Or just older pics?

Anyway, trucks looks way better with the valence off and the brushguard on. Now just lift that beasty!

Haha... j/k. Truck is looking pretty good for a 15 year old.

camera's clock got reset...the pics were taken 1/23/07

but thanks for the comments...the brush guard isn't that aggressive looking, but for a '91 ranger, I didn't want to spend $200+ on a mod...so for what I paid ($35 w' hardware), I like it a lot

looks great much better without that lower valence, and thats a good deal on the brush guard, looks real good, i would swap the bigger tires onto the older wheels
