last night i got hit by a deer i was the only car on the road and my truck is totalled mechanically its fine but i need a whole new passenger side pretty much i take pride in this accident he was a huge deer but now i gotta fix daisy.on top of that the doors were off so my door jam is pushed about 2 ft into the cab oh well. anyone have any bright ideas? oh and if you live in sc i took him to the processors if anyone was some deer burgers.



poor daisy. stupid southern deer.

 

well if you want just anyone old bed or extra cab pats you can probably get some at the junk yard but if you want a new stuff i would suggest that you go to lmc.com and get a ranger magazine and order it from there that's what i would do they have all the replacement parts you need.

 

its not just parts i had the doors off and my entire door jam is shover 2 ft in you cant tell in the picture but it was horrible i think the deer was running at the part of my truck he could see the woods on the other side because i have camo seat covers and the doors were off he almost came in the bad hahah im lucky to be alive. but i cant afford a new bed and since theres so much mud under the hood and everwhere else insurance totalled it im freaking out cuz shes my baby but thanks ill look on there now.

 

yah i think lmc would have to be your best bet, i know you can get a new door there but idk about the jam you mite have to go take it to a body shop and get an estimate.

 

i did its gonna be 1200 i would try and sell it wrecked and all but idk if i could get rid of her just because shes going through hard times.

 

so why exactly were you driving without doors? that pic must not show the damage well cause i dont see anything that has moved 2 feet. Plenty of rangers around. I would go to anderson towards the Jockey Lot, lots of junkywards there, bound to find some old ranger. I know there is a garage in seneca with a totaled ranger you might could get the bed off of, the cab is no good tho. Is insurance gonna pay you?

 

k so im looking at my LMC mag right now and a 2000 ranger passenger door is 350$ but thats just the outside shell i think not the inner components, you mite get one at a junkyard for less that has everything you mite get lucky.

 

thats the good part the door was off so the damage is on the inside of the jam. and they offered me 1000 and id still have to pay my deductible i said ya right i wouldnt give you my hood for a grand my truck is worth more to me than a grand totalled or not. i think ima go to williams and sons in simpsonville they seem to give me stuff alot hopefully theyve got a decent ranger though thanks for your help.

 

hopefully thanks for checking it out for me so much stuff is going on idk if id even be able to concentrate long enough on looking for one i messed my truck up so bad southern deer are so freaking stupid thats the 2nd one thats HIT ME in a year it ran into me what an idiot.

 

id do some local searches for a parts truck. I would imagine that would be the cheapest way to fix it.

Maybe something like this

I would say check CL in your area for a ranger thats not running. Might be less/equal to $1200 then you'd have body parts galore if its in good condition.

EDIT: Darn you chris! lol

 

great minds thing alike

 

^^looks like anyone that owns a ranger shares a brain huh boys? haha thanks with two people giving the same advice it might be a good thing to try.

 

Or........you could pick up another Ranger for a daily, and turn this one into a trail rig, and not worry about the body damage!

 

i aint got the money to do but i wish ive been looking for a comanche to trade my truck for but cant seem to find one but oh well thanks though

 

i bet a junkyard would have spare parts before CL.

 

lmc isnt going to work that great trust me they dont have full bed sides and they have nothing for the cab other than corner and little **** a dealer is his best bed or get a new cab and bed

 

Don't get a Commache, unibodies FTL


Just go pick up a non running ranger for 350 bucks, I am sure you can find one kicking around.

 

thats you opinion though, when i have my mind set on getting something ill stop at nothing till i get it. an di want a jeep comanche, if it messes up oh well its what i want.

 

Just take the totalled check and buy a new car, or total the truck out and buy it back and drive it as is.

 

I think you should build on of theses

haha alright ill get one but i have one question will you be sending me the 299/mo in cash or money order? haha just kidding thatd be pretty bad but i tihnk im buying a new truck today.

 

lol downey sending you money haha

 

This thread is pretty graphic lol

 

ouch that sucks, looks like what happened to me back in the winter, the deer looked the same. good thing your okay, lucky insurance covered my truck and i got it into a collision center and they fixed it up good as new, lucky for me the front bumper and headlight took all the impact though, so it was a pretty easy fix. plus the left front quarter panal but thats easy to replace as well.
