i started my ranger and drove it to work...........did not have time to hang out on the pc and post pictures and stuff.

 

How do you like 'em? They look pretty good.

 

There sweet but the halos are kinda junk there not bright. Not sure if I like halos anyways might unhook them.

 

hi, I'm new to this forum and I can't figure out how to post a thread. I've checked everywhere, either I'm blind or I'm not looking in the right spot. If you can help me, please do. Thanks a lot. From Watermellon.

took the big kitty off and a muffler

 

Hey, tell us about them… they look good !

 

Replaced factory speakers with Rockford Fosgate Primes - piece of cake except for the stripped screw head on the drivers side window crank. Nothing a little drill work and judicious use of force couldn't overcome.

Installed a Ford Racing oil filter adapter - like the huge filter - and changed the oil. Apparently the dealership guys that did the last change heard the Jiffy Lube horror stories. I had to use a long breaker bar to get the drain plug loose and the filter was on so tight it started to crush before it came loose.

 

There the Sonar chrome ones. I like them, people complain about the cut-off line but I think its great. I have pictures of it but haven't put them up. I don't like the halos there dim and look off. I unhooked them and put white leds in the the corners to match the three across the front. I'm very happy with them, getting a H1 HID kit for it soon.

 

swapped my interior lights with some blue ones. gonna get some clear corners and put some blue lights in there too

 

removed mesh from the grille. and took off the bumper and painted it black. and painted the grille black too. about to put them back together!

Changed my fuel filter, and needless to say, got gas in my eye and ear. Gas in the ear is definitely a whole new type of pain! I knew as soon as it hit my eardrum that I was screwed! No lasting effects, as long as you irrigate the area(s) for about 20 minutes. The ear pain lasted for a few hours, and now I just feel like my one ear is underwater, but it will take awhile to get better.
I just wanted to share because I know that no matter what you do, you are going to have some gas come out when you remove the first line, I was wearing glasses, but that only saved my eye slightly....the gas ran down the arm of the glasses right into my ear. This is a simple repair, that most anyone can do, but make sure that you go under the truck prepared, safety glasses and something to cover your ears are a must, and I don't recommend having your mouth open!! I think next time I'll wrap my head in a towel! Truck runs better! :)

 

Color-matched the grill. Need to scrape together the extra cash for an 01+ bumper, fogs, and brackets, then I'll color-match that. My current one is bent, and I'd like to update it instead of just replacing.

 

Busy day today since it so nice out--plugs, wires, Screamin' Demon coil pack, cleaned IAC, TB, and MAF, cleaned underhood, pulled the seats out to do a thorough post-winter cleaning, installed my Thunderbolt signal mirrors, and installed my hydroimaged carbon fiber bezel and door panel trim. Hopefully it will be decent tomorrow so I can get my seats cleaned and reinstalled.
BTW--the Thunderbolt signal mirrors are awesome--40 bucks well spent.

More work re-doing the crappy work the former owner did on the “cluster truck”….

I just finished installing a factory ford stereo (CD + Cassette) from an ’01 (?) F250.

The stereo that came with it was a Pioneer CD head unit, with the wrong adaptor, HACKED into the dash. It was hooked only to the rear speakers. I had to laugh when I removed the rear speaker grills. Laying in each speaker well was a cheap 4 inch tall computer speaker. No wonder it sounded so bad! The connector for the factory radio was cut off, found 3 bad fuses and one missing one, and there were no speakers in the doors.

I bought the ford stereo from a guy on CL pretty cheap, fortunately he had a connector from another truck he was parting out.

A week or so ago I installed a new antenna because the guy removed the original one (to paint the truck?) and never put it back in. Then I installed door speakers – got some cheap Pioneers from Circuit City. And finally today I put the rest together for an actual working system.

 

New Accel wires and Motorcraft Platinums in the 5.0.

$60 I didn't plan on spending today.

Engine bay looks nicer now though.

 

Finally got around to installing my James Duff traction bars....they have only been sitting on the bench since November.

Next up is the rock crusher diff cover...maybe

 

More stereo work. Doors are almost ready to be fully assembled.
