We are looking at a ranger for mustangallie and we checked this out. It hauls a$$ to say the least. 4.0 SOHC Reg cab FTW! And no the mustang is not staying with us :-( It is tough to afford $500+ a month and I'm about to start a 1967 mustang project soon. Plus My wife has grown very fond of rangers lately

Clean...i say option 2...it hurts to see a 4x4 lower than stock

 

The only thing is... It will never so much as see a gravel road.... much less get wheeled...

 

slam it, who cares about the 4x4

 

Thats what she likes, but I like em lifted. But we already have a lifted 4x4 ranger that gets wheeld'

 

thats dumb to pay to have 4x4 and lower it making it useless. how about leave it stock and make it look nice. wheels tires and and all.

 

or why not get a different truck?

 

4.0 regular cab 4x4 for the price of a 2.3 regular cab? 4cyl rangers bring 15-16k used around here. I know, I know you can buy one new for less than that. doesn't make sense. plus our winters suck and this way she could have a 4x4 and have a street truck too. LOL! We will see!

 

make it AWD and level it out

make it a sick little street truck

 

i already answered ya

 

This is where we where thinking.... but lower. This is a 4x4 truck

 

Lifted or lowered, four-wheel drive is nice to have. I say go with option one if that is what she wants.

 

I say lift it. But also, make it a little street truck. Slap a blower on it, and that would be a damn quick little ranger.

 

t-bar crank and 32's and be done with it and gl hope u get it!

 

awww, short bed, single cab, 4.0, 4x4. There is only one thing to do. give her yours lower it and jack the new one up on 35's

 

^ i agree


and imagine that another Ben thread about buying a new vehicle

 

LOL!

 

I don't care what you do as long as you SAS it....

 

Exactly! If you already have one vehicle that you wheel then what's the point of having two wheeling vehicles? And if she's not going to wheel it then having it lifted will hurt her on milage so just go ahead and slam it and get great power and pretty decent gas milage.

 

I might want the nerf bars if you take them off

 

get the best of both worlds

 

what if they both want to go wheeling then she can drive and he can drive they will never go wheeling alone again

 

SAS IT!

 

Send it to me ive had it with my truck.

 

I would just leave it the way it is and maybe get some different rims.
