I like!! Sounds like a build I'd love to get my hands on one day. Looooooooove the aux gauges!! I might have to steal that idea for my chevy.
By the way....would it be possible to post pics of the tow rig? It's yellow and has stacks. Pics please!!

ok so it doesnt look like much but i spent 7 hours today going through the wiring harness removing things i didnt need like the heating wires the dash cluster wires the radio wires and i extended some wires as well so the only things that will be in the engine bay are the things that have to be... everything else will be nicely hidden under the dash...




I would cut the raised floor out of the bed and build one that hugs everything mounted on the frame. That way you could run a tonneau cover and get some use back out of the bed.
Unless theres no room, because that **** is low. Nice.

Looks good for sure. Goofy to me why they would build a nice Ranger like that and then just rip it apart, down to what's in the first pictures. Oh well. Can't wait to see more progress. Keep us posted.
im not to crazy about not having any storage... but i have an idea for tmyhat because i do goto shows for days at a time and would like to be able to take a bag... stay tuned to see where my ideas go...
thanks again guys... im getting sick so im not as triger happy with the camera... today all the power wires got wired to the power block for the switch box... i made a sheet metal patch for the pasenger side firewall to cover the heater box hole and what not.. i got some pipe clamps for the valve blocks so they will be a lil more secure... and thats about it...
yea its coming along.... just found a big set back today well i guess its not that big... the front frame rails are body dropped 3.5 and it needs to go down another inch atleast the rad supposed doesn't go down far enough for me to get the fenders to line up... so its gunna take a few hours to fix it... not to bad i guess.. just need more gas for the welder going in the am for that...
