I've got some catchin up to do with ya'll so I grabbed a bunch of pics. There's a lot, so if a admin cuts me off, well, you'll know why! Tell me what you think! With the help of Shane, Austin and my wonderful girlfriend for taking a good majority of the pics, it was able to happen!

Here was one of the problems with OPERATION SHAKY BUMPER





Here she is, gutted like a fish!



What am I doing here?...



BAM, new grille! (well just painted, but even shane made lots of comments on it, even being a quick 1hr fix!)



Here's the pics I was meaning to get up earlier. That bump stop used to sit a lot higher. The stops are almost resting on the LCA, as you can see... The last pic is the day I brought it home.






Got rid of ALL the mossy oak in the truck, FINALLY!!! Compliments of Shane for the free door panels! meaning, my old ones with the mossy oak are up for grabs, just pay for shipping!



Then, I got tired of always looking for the right size socket when I working on ****, so I came up with a good idea, at least I think, for people who want to stay organized. The thing on the left is a strong magnet, and the socket rails hold onto those sockets REAL tight.



Operation shaky bumper is no more... Don't pay attention to the quality of the welds, I don't take pride in them, but they hold up more than alright. Those damn 120V welders are tricky!




NOW it's time to ***** me out!... Well Austin and I, but here's more random pics that the girlfriend took... Some pretty cool shots, the Canon SD630 is an awesome camera, like having PS on the camera!










We caught Austin in the middle of sh!tting his pants lol...





MY favorite pic of the night, courtesy of Shane!!!! Thanks buddy!!!



And just for ***** and giggles... It's always fun to compare the before and after shots! Here's my interior before:



And here it is now..


(Although it doesn't show all that well how good it really looks inside!)

ENJOY GUYS!!!

 

cut those factory 'jack points' off the lower control arms before they hit the bump stop brackets.. thats what everyone on here told me as soon as i posted RCD pics..

besides that, it looks great!!

 

Yah, I think when I go home next, I'm gonna cut them off.... That's what those are for? I don't think I knew that... How do you "jack" it up from there? I don't know about that haha

 

**** chyeaa

 

I've used mine to sit jack stands on before. Truck looks freakin great man, I want to find those door panels with the map pockets in them soon.

 

Man lookin great!! I wanna see some more pictures of the other ranger too..gives me a preview :) I liked the interior before but it def. looks great now too!!! Awesome lookin truck for sure

 

looks great trevor!!

 

no more mossy oak? what was up with that..hah i got the mossy oak seat covers and steering wheel cover.

 

Yah, you can tell it used to be mossy oak... I liked it at first, but after I went leather, it just didn't fit to me lol... So I went with the all clean look!

Thanks for all the compliments guys! I'll get some more pics of mine and Austins truck after I get my coils done... Which I ordered last week (Wednesday)... I'm hoping they'll be here around Tuesday or Wednesday so I can go home again this weekend and put them dang things on and level myself out!

 

I'll take any of the mossy oak stuff you're willing to gimme... I think it would look good in my truck but not sure yet. hmmmm I do agree though, the clean leather look is badass.

 

nice pics

 

i like the tool box nice

 

truck looks good!

 

That's one sexy beast! I PM'd you on the panels. I want 'em.

 

Nice pics......who is that Shane guy?

I think some Shane guy took some of those pics...

 

I heard Shane is a psycho that randomly hears horse noises. ahaha

 

Dude, I love what you did with the tool box. I now have some inspiration for mine! I can't believe I didn't even begin to imagine that!\

Truck looks awesome.

 

that looks real good! Those mossy oak panels were real cool but your truck looks better without em

Where did you get the newer door panels for free?!? I wanted to swap a new set into my truck!

 

sick!!!!!!!!

 

I upgraded to '03 panels....and the my stock ones have been sitting forever.....and gave them to him. lol.

 

Looks good Trevor
