Dug my Ranger out for the photo contest

Well, when I saw the photo contest this week I really wanted to enter since a pump jack photo is right up my alley. I replaced the battery for the second time in a year since the truck has been sitting so much. The battery was under warranty this time though. After throwing the new battery in I had to fill it up, It's probably been at least 6 months since I put gas in it. I didn't really feel like washing it so I just headed out for some pics.










BTW, I ordered a battery disconnect so I don't keep killing batteries lol.

If you ever need someone to drive it throw it on a trailer when you visit your sister and I'll drive it.

Looks good. Did you decide if you were taking the BL off or not?

I don't plan on taking the body lift off. I do plan to bring the front down about 2-3 inches and redo the steering and trac bar mounts though. I just have a lot going on and dont have much time to mess with the Ranger anymore.

Just pick you up one of those cheap billet grills on ebay for like $80 and spray paint it black. That's all mine is!

Yea, I found 2 billet grills.

Which one should I get? Both mention black satin finish, but the pics don't show that

Stainless Billet

Not Stainless

If your gonna paint it. Go with the not stainless one. I don't think you can really prep stainless well enough for paint to adhere to it.
