Someone needs to import those here and sell them. Think of that, If a little dealer was to get a handful of those, they'd sell like hotcakes.

Trucks going to look Good!

i think now everyone can see why diesel are way bomb over gas engines. way more torque and overall power, while getting better mileage.

if you take pictures of how the rear bumper mounts, ill order and send you the US bumper lift brackets at your cost.

is the front bumper raised? also, what did you do for ground, ebrake, radiator, steering extensions?

there are 3.0 electronic injection option

comes with the ranger "limited" then its the "xlt" (2.8 mechanical) and xl only until 2006 i belive.

then on the 2008+ trucks if not mistaken they come with a 2.5 turbo intercooler diesel engine, are a little ligher they are not common rail, the body itself its a little higher (on the 4x4 xlt version ) and on the 2009 ive seen on the dealership even with the option of stock black - gray wheels :P lol

ill post pics f the steering extension tomarrow with light.

the rear bumper brackets are jsuteasier to build plus i need to see what to do with the extra tire mount cause if i raise the bumper i wont be able to reach the hose.. unless i drill a whole under the license plate, guess its gona be easier that way....

ebrake there was something there to adjust it so it was no prob. the ground also it was long enought to reach no problem. and the radiator i did a 3" drop mounts so it keept its original height and not move the fan guard arround cause else i wouldave had to take it off.

yeah the front bumper is raised also the bull bar is raised. lost the tow hooks but they werent working anyway.. ill keep em fo when i try to sell the truck to put em back on if the buyer wants to lower the truck agian

thanks toreador but i guess the rear bumper brackets are easier to build and cheaper than sending them all way from the us plus i need to see what to do with the extra tire mount cause if i raise the bumper i wont be able to reach the hose.. unless i drill a whole under the license plate.. ill see when i get into raisng the stepsides.

ebrake there was something there to adjust it so it was no prob. the ground also it was long enought to reach no problem. and the radiator i did a 3" drop mounts so it keept its original height and not move the fan guard arround cause else i wouldave had to take it off.
