i've been working at my truck for a bit now but i guess i should post up from the start on what i did. nothing special. just lots and lots of lil stuff that really seperates a ranger apart from the rest.

 

my 1999 ford ranger 3.0 v6 5 speed 4wd as i bought it. the previous owner had spray painted the wheels. black. and it didnt look too bad.

 

next did a block and torsion lift to get the 2" out of it. looked a tad more aggresive. added lights and a light bar.

 

did some light tinting as well as painted the grille, bumpers and slight grille trim

 

did a bucket seat swap from a 1998 explorer sport as well as the center counsol. and then painted the rocker panels and added an easy access tow strap on the front.

 

did a makeshift intake for some more air. as well as got all of my equipment in the truck

 

put on an aries brush guard and a class 3 reciever with a d-ring hitch.

 

installed my emergency lighting kit. as well as my interior mountings for my pry bar and extinguisher and maglight. as well as my cb with pa system.

 

as she sits now, out havin some fun

 

I like what you did with the light controls. The center console is a good place for them.

 

more pics of the cb setup as well as my center dashbord setup and a new ait filter for some more air.

 

swapped out the radiator with one from a 5.0 v8 in an exploder. new out of da box.

 

Looks like fun...Should get a cheap 2 or 3 ton floor jack for your tool selection.

 

been a while since i've been on here to update my build blog. heres a list of the few mods i've done since the last time i was here.

• new fog lights. added 2 side facing and two more forward facing ones.
• new tires. went with a 33x12.5x15 maxxis big horn

• added my company decals on the sides and rear

aside from that its just been tuning and cleaning. work as usual. i'll keep the new ideas coming

 

also i got rid of my ghetto intake and bought a k&n intake as well as a grinitelli racing throttle body spacer. a grinitelli aftermarket maf sensor, and a bigger intake filter head. also put in a new hd clutch set, flywheel, did a full set of gabreal max control shocks. after i took these pics i replaced the iac valve, iat sensor. new altenator, and swapped out my 20 amp switches for 50 amp for my fog lights

 

looks good, loooot of lights haha

 

YA I HAD THEM SITTING AROUND SO I SAID WHY NOT. I KINDA LIKE IT THO. LIGHTS UP A TRAIL LIKE NO OTHER

 

well light bar is off, so are the 33's. went stock for a while cuz my wallet went broke for a while. lol. but imma start over. go bigger and better. well better anyway. i wanna keep some fuel economy

 

been a bit since i updated this. i was deployed for 6 months so i wasnt doing anything. while i was away i bought the manual hub conversion. i did the nicer mirror swap instead of the flag style mirrors that it came with. new headlights. my old ones were beyond scratched and gouged. but here is some pics as she is for now. looks way better than it did when i left. i also canned my entire strobe lighting system due to malfunction and hassles with wiring and went with a super bright dash light from etd. sutable for what i do on the road. gonna get another for the back window and leave it at that.

 

Not bad, take a look at the E92 hide aways from strobes N More. I have a sets in my corners and tails and they are the best I have found for the price.

hell ya man those look bright. i bet they look good at night too

 

That site has some interesting stuff and the pricing isn’t too bad.

 

ive got feniex on my truck, might be a lil more but well worth it
Police lights, Emergency led lights, public work lights, Feniex industries, Warning vehicle lights and sirens, lightbars

 

They have served me well. Right now I have whelen LEDs in the side windows, a traffic director on the back of the rack, hide a ways in the tails a d12 dash light in the windshield and e6s in the grill. Plus my whelen siren/pa is from strobes n more. They have been great to deal with as its all primary warning compliant.

 

Nice the fenixs are pretty good from what I have seen, only down side is its more wiring because each head has its own flasher unit.
