new plugs wires and lighting pack

HOLY Crap on a Cacker///……. this job sucked, I bought this Ranger 4 yrs ago it was rusty. so rusty I broke the frame right behind the spring shakel. got me a donor ranger put the o7 frame in behind my 04 , lol works spring bushings and replaced the fuel pump/accending unit one weeks vacation. Then the front another week off replaced upper a arm with new bushing and bolts, new lower a arm , what a B to get the tortion bar out of the old a arm it was rusted in and it took the death wheel on a grinder to cut it out and then put a chisel in the cut to get relief then bounce it on the floor to break it loose, Danmit that sucked!!! but … that never made me bleed as bad as changing the spark plugs and wires and coil , where to begin . Started on the drinker's side ,it look to be the worst under the air con / jacked up truck and took off wheel came at it from under, lol damn inner fender made me bleed. it took putting a pare of vice grips on the old plug wire to get it off , then 2 hrs later got the plug socket on and it was not good with a short ext. so saw a tip used a 3/4 socket on ratchet then on to the plug socket worked the plug out. OMG the plugs are original never been replaced they where so f en hard to get out . putting a new plug back in 4 hrs later I did put anti-sieze on the new ones, 6 hrs in and got the drinkers side done.... going to bed . Next morning start on the drivers side , same thing slow going hard to get plugs out 4 hrs later the three S's done.///. well no just one .I didn't shave lol I am on vacation lol got this done now I am going to make my own bumper and will post some pics . Thank you so much for the help
