This is my Red 2010 Ranger, 2wd, 2.3l
currently 30k miles and my daily driver
(i drive 3 miles to work ).
Mechanically everything is bone stock,
added steps by Rocky Road Outfitters,
mudflaps by Rally Armor
( i love these they hug the body line perfectly!)
In bed toolbox by tractor supply
Just ordered S.S. bed rail guards and S.S. Tube rails for the bed, will post when I install items were M.T.O

Looking for suggestions on what to do next!
on the list already are tires an inch or two bigger with a more aggressive on-off road tread (i dont like big lug mud tires for This truck) current size is 225/70/15. Might pull the trigger on some Pathfinder Sport A/T's, open to other suggestions. Pulling rims when i get tiresand sanding/polishing them as they are aluminum and clear coat is bubbling.
next on my list are smoked wind deflectors.
Also thinking of changing the exhaust to something sportier sounding, suggestions?

 

Red Ranger !!!!!!

I like Red Rangers

Lots of neat things to do to a Ranger just NEVER change the color, unless its not a Red Ranger, lol, then paint it Red

 

The pictures do no justice, its the candy apple red ranger, and the metal flake in it is amazing after a good wash and polishing

 

Tube rails for the ranger, waiting on bed rail guards/protectors
Update: Just got Stainless tube rails for my bed,
stainless bed rail guards/covers are ordered and will be here monday with a new dslr camera for me to play with. Also plan on getting the bed lined soon. Will update with more pictures as soon as i get everything on the truck, gonna be busy but it'll get done.

 

About to polish and wax

 

Alright so got my stainless caps finally aaaand... they were made 2 inches too wide, had to go to my vendor and have them remade. Bummer.

Flipside of things got my new camera and took some pics while i was out.

 

 

Also on my list im doing a deep clean of the carpet and detailing the interior, the trim strip by the doors the screws are pretty rusty and was wondering if anyone knew where i could get Stainless versions of these??? They have a special washer on them, i assume to keep moisture out and to hold to trim strip better. Will post pictures to show.

 

 

A Marine supply and hardware store should have similar in stainless steel, although they won't be cheap, but I don't think there is a "cheap" boat part, lol.
Not sure you need the washer, flat head would work, or even an oval head might look nice

Sweet Ride :)

 

Update: Screw is a #8 x 3/4", bought 2 packs of stainless from Tractor Supply for $2 U.S., ground the old screws down on the bench grinder till i got the washer off then ground the washer just a hair so i could thred it onto the new screw, going to paint old washer black since theyre rusty and install, with a dab of marine silicone to help w water prevention. After i scrub my carpet first 😂😂
here is a pic of the original screw, one ground and the new one w the washer threaded

 

Cleaning time, removed seats, scrubbing carpets amd detailing interior, going to run power under the seats for some lighting and an outlet, thinking about building a wireless charger hidden under the floor console

 

 

Fixed it for you.

 

didnt even think about it that time, idj is there a rule against license plates? I dont see it being a big deal, worst someone can do is say i hit them and if they lie about it i have gps in my truck and a dash cam

 

No rule, but for same reason you wouldn't post any other personal info like your SSI number, credit card number, phone number, email

 

lol a bigger engine? 4.0? no for a city truck thats great i got a 99 xlt stepside 4.0 love it. anyway to your question.....i am putting fender flares and a grill gaurd and a roll bar and a visor. now no round lights on that bar i try to go different than everyone else. try square L.E.D. lights. like i said make it yours not someones elses. EVERYONE wants a big huge truck well im doing that to mine just not the huge lift and tires lol i drive my truck like i stole it and the cops are fast on my heels every day so huge and jacked up i would roll over and kill myself. but i love that big truck look. there is my sugestion. hope it helps and you can understand me lol.quick edit saw where you were talking bout the color with the metallic flakes you ever heard of jalapeno green with metallic flakes? i am a black and red fan but this color is growing on me. looks amazing in the sun tell you what.

 

Yeah, I'm not sure either. IMO I don't see what the issue is. I was just goofing around in paint.net.

 

im not going to go crazy with it, not putting a lift kit or blocks on it, just want tires an inch or two bigger just for a better look, i do mostly in town driving, and a small bit on the farm, im just doing tube rails no roll bar, as i like my toolbox and i haul kayaks, im building a hidden qi wireless phone charger for the floor console, and a custom led controller/computer, going to put LEDs under rockers and bed rails, interior under seats, dash, and that slot above the cargo net on back wall, will be posting updates as i progress, unfortunately the coil for the charger i ordered was too big, its going to go somewhere else
