Has anyone ever put a 01-03 power dome hood on a 99 ranger?

does the hood fit any mods i have to do to the hood does the grille lines match up?

My hood has started to bubble up and rust and i wanted something different, but not too "street car" like.

i would appreciate any kind of help or opinions

 

It will fit, I have seen it done. 01-03 Power dome hoods will fit 98+ rangers

 

the grill and every thing matches up good or would i have to change out the grill and headlights into the 01-03 style

 

It will line up. Even though they are different grille and lights, I believe its the same height

 

ok thanks

 

Yes everything will line up perfectly. I did it on my old 98.

 

Here's a build thread that is a classic.

Unrelated to the Powerdome, but your hood is rusting? I thought that 4th gen. hoods are aluminum. If that isn't correct, then when did the aluminum hoods come about?

 

As I said the paint is starting to bubble up and correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't that come before rust

 

I can answer this....

You said in your original post that the paint has started to "bubble up and rust". Your hood is aluminum.
Thanks. :)

Your right pics are like a 1000 words

Thanks

 

Did you actually read the link it said " due to iron contamination in the aluminum" it rusted

 

There's no link in your original post. I had flaking paint on my hood for 3 years before I had it repainted, and it never rusted due to "iron contamination". You were wrong. Just accept it and move on.

Edit: And now that I see what you're talking about in the link, Morris's hood is steel, which is why it rusted.
