1st Ranger- Help me decide first project! *pics*
I just bought my first Ranger about a week ago, and I freakin' love the thing! It's only got 55,000 miles on it and looks like it was taken care of so I grabbed it. Tell me what you guys think!
So, what do you guys think should be first on my project list?

Very nice '01 Low(er) mileage too great find. As for mods. Delete the mud flaps, Black billet grill, new 32x11.5x15 inch BFG A/T's mounted on a set of 15x8's of your choice. Like sated above if you dont need a front plate ditch the mount it REALLY cleans the front end up. I'd get the bumpers painted to match or bedline them.
Nice man! Welcome!
I say 06 corners, 06 tails and 06 emblems
Crank the t-bars to level it out
3in PA Body lift
33x11.50 meats
Tint
HID'S!

What about interior stuff? Is it an auto? Manual?
LED the interior
Hurst?
bucket seats?

Truck looks good man!! I say body lift it, go buy #1 T-Bars and then crank them to level it out. I would say wheels, but (what member has the stepside lifted w/the graphite painted factory wheels on blue truck) you could lift it and keep the factory wheels.

1.) T-Bar crank (to level the front end with the rear) Free to do
2.) Paint grille black (cost a few bucks and it's a DIY project)
3.) Clear corners (just a few bucks) or go completely black headlights/corners, another DIY mod (if you can handle putting your headlights in the oven) or pay $100 or so for eBay black headlights/corners.
4.) Now the money saving mods (new tires). A nice set of meats will help you out, and a newer set of rims will set it off. But tires and rims are costly.
5.) As if I forgot tint!!! Not very expensive, but I recommend getting it installed by a shop. The DIY stuff is crap and never looks as good.

Thanks man! The interior is tan, auto. Pretty basic really. This truck seems to be a blank slate! But it's super clean. I can't wait to go broke doing mods on this thing! HA!

In order:
1) Headlight mod and paint grill to match at the same time
2) New emblems man
3) Turn signal and fog light mod
4) TINT is a must
If you start there you will change the whole look of the truck for less than 100 bucks. You cant beat that man. Then once your at that stage take the time to see where you want to put your big money
