Thanks everyone!
I will need to get under it and clean up the frame real good, it was cleaned up at one time but I am going to get under there and POR it this week just to make sure there are no future issues.
Nah.....just the pic that I took

"Powerdome hood" is the nickname given to the raised fiberglass hoods offered 2001-2003. The raised hoods 2004-later are steel and aren't raised quite as high. The polished wheel is from a later model Level II ranger. Probably one wheel on your truck was damaged and replaced with a polished wheel from a 2004+ level II. Alcoas were offered brushed, polished, and in gray.

It's in my blood so who knows as time goes on!
Step one is to continue cleaning and rust proofing to my liking then we think about mods

First thing my wife said was, well, I guess I don't have to worry about you buying a cowl hood, I knew it was different but didn't really pick up that others didn't all come with that style hood. I like it! It's damn heavy though!
Thanks again on the info on the wheel, now I have to find 1 brushed!! or 3 polished!!! THIS WILL BUG ME!!
