Ranger with a sun roof
I was surfing through craigslist and I saw this ad posted. I saw this truck and the sunroof looks factory but I didn't think Ford sold them with sun roofs. Is this a factory job or a nicely done aftermarket.

MAN!!! I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A POWER SUNROOF IN MY TRUCK!!!!
|
Not factory, but an add on. I almost had it done to my 04 when I bought it, but the had to lower the headliner and my head already hit on the ranger so I didn't want to make it worse. It was a $600 my cost add on back then. Lots of Impala SS guys do it.

Yeah, Ford has never offered an optional sunroof for a Ranger... still cool though!
|
Someone here welded in an explorer Sunroof, which utilizes the existing roof support instead of making it useless.
|
Pretty sweet. I'd rock it.
|
I'll bet a Super Duty one would work as well (in super or extended).
|
They screwed up if you look closely the headliner in the pic of the sunroof is tan the interior of the ranger is grey. Can't believe no one caught that.
|
I figured it was lighting.

no clayton is right. if you look closely at that picture it does not look like a ranger interior at all. the curve of the window, the grab handle and the map lights are all wrong.plus look how big the rear window is. that picture is not a ranger.
|
Thats awesome, i thought about having one put on but then i remembered the 95* heat in summer and my forgetfulness
|
Ive seen a couple rangers with sunroofs. There are a couple aftermarket shops around here that do them. If done properly they are sweet.
|
That sunroof pic i dont think is the truck...
|
I think the moon roof picture is a mistake post. There is a video that talk about the truck. it mentions the "integrated tail lights" but no moon roof. I have a feeling they wouldn't miss that key point.
|
Yeah that picture doesent look like a ranger. the oh $h!t handle is molded to the head liner wrong
|
Ya now that you say it. Thats no ranger. Looks like an explorer.
|
i asked ford about putting a sunroof in my truck when i first got it, they said they won't install a sunroof on any Ranger due to the fact the roof would lose it's structural durability in the event of a rollover

i have a power spoiler sunroof in my truck. LOVE IT! I put it in myself. hardest part was getting the nerve to start cutting the hole. Attachment 127237 Attachment 127238 |
^^^ do you have any pics of you installing that? does it go back any farther?
i want one so bad you could still use an explorer ohc too |

that is back as far as it goes. i am in the stage of putting an ohc in mine. i was planning on using the sunroof version, but it's way too long. the reg one looks to be about a 1/2" too long, but that's no big deal. just have to figure out how to mount it.

Dude! Did you cut that out perfectly with just a jigsaw? Or did you just cut close to the lines and then used a grinder?
|
I would kill for a sunroof in the Ranger! That would would just be cool.
|
jigsaw only. the sunroof drops in from the top, and has a lip around it. so there is a little wiggle room. the sunroof is probably my most favorite mod to my truck. i would do it to another one in a heart beat. the first one i put it, i got for free from the shop i work for. we replaced one in a cavalier, and i got the old. after 2 years or so of it completely not working, i finally got the money to buy a new one.
