i agree. for a nice DD, it is a good look/ride.

thanks!

 

Nice looking ride, Love the color of that thing. What is the color?

Looks good Gumby, what rims are those?

whats wrong with my avatar?

 

its OLD!

 

i THINK THAT IS AN AWESOME, THAT THE MOUNTAINEER HAS COME SO FAR...LOOKS GOOD MAN.

 

update time!

i put a roush airbox on the truck a few weeks back. it is nice, and got me a pretty consistent 1mpg gain.



i had to mod it to fit the larger MAF housing on my 5.0
no installed pics, but it looks like everyone elses roush airbox




and since no one seems interested in buyin it, i may as well keep moddin.....installed a set of 12" front brakes today.

knuckles from an 04 ranger


rotor differences, 12" on the left



knuckle difference, 12" behind


and the before/after



not a ZOMFG difference, but definitley noticeable and well worth it on a 4000lb truck.

 

Very Nice!

 

sweet. i wondered when you were going to install those.

guess it was a week ago. lol

 

yes, yes it was.

now that the pads are good and bedded in, im really liking these 12" brakes. actually had a "panic" stop that im not sure the 11 inchers would have gotten me whoa'd down in time for, but these did.

 

notice that much difference huh?

 

Are those 12" brakes off a ranger? Looks Nice!!

 

03.5+ rangers and 02-05 sport tracs had the 12" brakes, and thanks!

yes i notice the difference, but i tend to be really brake sensitive. i love havin ALOT of brake.

 

good brakes are always good to have, im lacking brakes now. hopefully my new setup stops.

Whats next cobra rotors?

 

im sure sometime in the future this truck will have 13" brakes, yes...

for the time being, the 12" setup is a great bang for the buck, hold me over.

 

if you do the cobra rotors, be sure to let us know whats involved. I would love to do that myself.
