Funny how most of your posts turn into a $hit Fests ! lol…

Funny to watch this build, crash and then go again.

Good to go Dave.

 

Well duh, everyone in the "offroad" community knows JDM stands for, Japanese Dont Mud. Keep that s*** on the streets!

 

Excuse me! Mud is stupid and anything can go mudding, Tacoma's are amazing on rocks. You can build them more, SAS them easier, many more mods for them than a ranger. My Tacoma will go anyplace I put it. I just had mass amounts of body work done that I dont feel like banging up on the woods thats why i got this ranger.

 

It's hard to argue what vehicle is better for offroading.

Take a look at the offroading community, literally any vehicle can built to do anything.

Off the shelf part availability won't stop a lot of people. They'll make anything work.

 

Confederate flag way up in Rhode Island?

 

That cut wheel well needs something bigger to make the cut worth it.

 

would explain the South Carolina title
My guess it was rotted or he had bigger tires.

 

Work it needs
Lumpy idle (thought it was a vac leak) zip ties on TPS pulled TPS idles smooth $34.91
Rear slip yoke missing two internal splines gone. shaft is fine (need to find the yoke)
-possibly swap in a one piece drive shaft?
Valve cover gaskets leak bad $4.08
Weld the 7.5 till it snaps then use the 8.8 it came with in the bed

 

Ya you don't have me convinced. The only way to make them good at anything is to put American parts into it. And to say you can build them more is stupid. A VW bug could be built to do better on the rocks then your Tacoma. Oh but wait, most people would use American parts to do that as well.

 

Most use american parts. FWIW a Tacoma is made in Cali only parts from japan are driveline. But I agree stock form the Tacoma is more capable esp. with factory lockers. but a solid axle ranger and Tacoma on same axles are essentially the same just looks different. It's not the truck it's the driver. If i were to Solid axle my DD it wouldnt be with american parts Id have to go with Fj passenger drop 8" front and a FJ 8.5 rear. USA parts 14 bolt rear 60 front

 

Says a Tacoma is superior offroad, buys a Ranger for wheeling. ha ha ha ha

 

who cares? this thread is about the ranger, not the taco.

anyways, im digging it. Id rock it

 

Just about any stock ranger, taco, s10 w/e, will perform the same in any situation. Same with a SAS truck, if they are built to the same specs. I agree 100% that its the driver.

Stay out of it sir. He said JDM on a ford ranger site, that's fair game. If the OP can handle it, you can too.

 

S dimes are worthless turds

 

just need to find a drive shaft out of a newer ranger or get one like mine

 

gtfo

 

I'm pretty sure Toyota is the one that put TuRD right there in the name.

 

No, Im good!

 

Oh thats good! Even though Ford put duty in theirs and called it super

You dislike chevy? Your all right by me

 

factory lockers you say? You don't have them in your non Trd packaged truck.

 

Make a mem Patrick. Lol that little baby with the fist.

 

The TuRD is a good one I've known about that for awhile.

chevys just suck. Only good thing is the 14 bolt
So whats the "RR DIFF LOCK" Switch for on my dash?!?!

Truck Update: Acquired drive shaft still need Pass front axle
Kewn said to replace grille cause it looks stupid so I'm trying to find one

 

you dont have that switch. its a 4 cylinder

 

YES I DO NOW FGT
SR5 OFFROAD PKG..Not TRD, Not TRD Limited, Not SR5, Not DLX 2wd, Not Pre-Runner
