Ok so today on my way to work i saw a dually ranger. i have never seen one. have yall. i know its custom i just aint never seen one or heard of one. it was a first for me!

 

Lol Ive seen one before. The one ive see is a second gen reg cab dually. Thing is *****in, dont know if its custom or what.

 

I dont think they were custom thing. I have seen them before. There is actually one or two around here that I see on occasion. I like them and wish I had one(a deisel one would be even better). I think there is a guy who just joind with one, he lives in Alaska.

 

Yeah a deisel one would be some kind of nasty, yeah he just joined you can kind of see his truck in his avatar.

 

dually ranger with the 6.0 diesel would be crazy

 

in australlia, they sometimes put duals on the front and snorkels from the factory... at least i know they do this on the 2 and 350

 

Add a turbo and you'll be all set

 

ya the 6.0 powerstroke w. turbo:drool:

 

I have seen a couple over the years

 

All of those dual rear wheel Rangers which you see have been custom built, Ford didn't offer a dual rear wheel Ranger here. There was a few conversion companies that offered them through Ford dealers, but they were more along the lines of a conversion type of package.

There were a few companies that offered dual rear wheel kits for small trucks. J.C. Whitney still offers the adapters.
Judging by those that I have seen, the adapters are not very heavy duty and seem to have a tendency to self loosen. In other words they seem to be more for show than for any other purpose. I have seen complete kits, but not for a while now, they offered fenders, adapters and wheels. I have also seen front adapters which alloy you to use 6 identical rims too.

I wouldn't mind seeing a Ranger diesel myself, maybe not a 6.0L. but any suitable turbo diesel that makes good power would be great.

 

One of my friends who works for a Ford dealer close to my house told me a few years ago that ford was kicking around the idea of producing them in limited quantities. As far as I know they scraped that idea.

 

Anyone have better pics?? The one posted is a side shot and the Rangers got 14's......really looks like sh*t too.

 

Here is one a buddy of mine did in Texas in the early nineties. He sold it so I am unsure if it still exists.

I actually think it looks cool! It's Kinda like Utter's on a bull though!
