Tomarrow (Tuesday) I'm going to look at a new Ranger some guy at the local muffler shop is selling his to get a newer one...Its a 1997 Ford Ranger Extended cab. 2WD 4.0!!!!!! White paint job rims and flowmasters....I'll get pics tomarrow...

 

sounds good

 

yup

 

Huh ???

 

Rims or aftermarket wheels. I consider rims 17" and up...

 

What does the size of a wheel have to do with whether you call it a wheel or rim ?

 

I don't see the point in sayin "it's got rims! when they are 15" steelies"...sounds stupid to me.

 

a rim is a rim, a wheel is a wheel, a wheel is a rim and a rim is a wheel...therefore all light bulbs are made from magic elf happy dust.

so wheres the 93 gunna go?

 

NOW THAT EXPLAINS IT ...o crap if i only would have known...

 

since u run KC lights its made from super special magic happy elf dust

 

lmao, you guys crack me up!

I say go for it! I always wanted a 4.0... Don't pass it up!

 

4.0 is the way to go!

 

I have one...woohoo!!


so where are the pics?

 

Well.......................I'm very sad .....I didn't get to look at it yesterday so I was heading over there today ...well I got there today and he said he sold it about 2 Hours ago to some Mexicans........So I ask him all about it....It was a 5-speed Manual 2.3L engine!!! my cousin was way off....He said he had Flowmaster 40 series on it( so I'd heard it before and I thought it was a V6) he had an soundsystem w/ two 12s!!! The rims were 17 inch American racing rims.....That thing would accelorate too b/c I had raced with him a while back.....So I'm going back next week and I'm gonna get a Flowmaster 40 series for $254 I'm gonna have them out the back w/ duals or double on one side before the rear tire....And he said If I got aftermarket rims that he would buy my old ones.....

 

Then you didn't miss out thank god, only thing different were the color, it was a supercab and rims and a system. :)

 

well I wanted the extra room and the look of a flareside or W/E you call it.....

 

well theres a lot of rangers in the world and hopefully ull find a 4.0L ext cab for a good price soon.

But $254 for a flowmaster 40 SI/DO!!!?? I hope that comes with mandrel bent pipes and both tips and a hundred dollar bill!...seems a little steap, might wanna shop around for prices if you havent already.

 

well hopefully that happens someday...

 

Bleh...a 4.0L and a 4-banger are WAAAYYY different lol! You aren't missing anything.

Flowmaster - $50 - Easy to do
System - $250 - Easy to do
Rims - A lot - Easy, but expensive...probably the only thing I'd go "DAMNIT, I WANTED THAT" about...

And I hope that $254 for the Flowmaster is for the muffler, pipes, and install...you can get the muffler off eBay for like $50...

 

Well if you want to be really technical, rims would be what alot of race cars run. Only the outer portion of the "wheel" stays with the tire. You bolt that to a large hub.

 

i payed i little under $170 for my flow 40 duals...
