Lets see everyone's latest picture!
No, 2 owners before us the garage was enclosed to make a formal dining room and 3rd bedroom. In the future I'd love to put up a covered parking area to the left of the drive between the hedge and the house, but I'd still prefer to go to my dad's on the other side of town where all the good tools are.

A much bluer display. Achived with two layers of blue cello sheet behind the factory blue lens. Unfortunately you won't be able to see it in the day time if you have your headlights on AND the dimmer circuit hooked up. Picture shown is with the dimmer circuit unhooked.

I agree this Ohio weather is great right now. Just need to finish my lights. Almost done for a while. Have new lights in my consule. That was not fun. Got two switch holes cut for my lights. Got one set one. Need to get the big ones on and wire it up. Can't wait. Its been parked for a few days now. Hopefully I will finish tomorrow. Then check light aim after dark. Small lights are like deer finders on the side of the road. They are angled a little out to the sides. The big ones. Well as long as I get them level I'll be good. For being harbor freight they light up a lot. Not for the road with traffic. Getting excited to see it done. Ohio is being nice to me as well. Love that field you found. I was going to ask if it was Chardon. Then I saw your in Toledo. I'm in Wickliffe. To much traffic in my area. Ride on.

Nice. I have a set of HF light behind my grille. They're still in the job after 4 years, so I'm pretty happy with them.
Yea, pics were taken over in Toledo. Local mud hole with a few decent trails.
I'm currently working in strongsville though. (I'm an engineering student on CO-OP).

Could you share how you got them to fit behind the grill. I have the honeycomb style grill. I can't see a way to fit them in without hurting a radiator/cooler. Your help would be great. Getting my lights done would be great.
Thank you
Jim

Here's the best pic I could find of them, I can take some better ones this weekend if you need it. Basically what I did was make a bracket out of some aluminum angle and hang the lights from that. The bracket was bolted to the header panel (body colored plastic/composite piece that the grille/headlights/air dam mount to) right in the center. The bracket curves back towards the radiator at both ends to keep the lights out of the grille. I had to trim a good bit off of the air dam (black plastic piece that directs air into the radiator) to clear the bracket and lights. The passenger side light still came pretty close to the trans cooler. Overall they were a tight fit, but I haven't had any issues with them.

Well, I'm brand new to the Ranger club. After a bad time flipping my Explorer, it was time to finally get a Ranger, a vehicle I've wanted for many years. It's simple right now as I just got her yesterday, but it's the best driving vehicle I've owned so far. Even with high miles.

Nice white Ranger you found there. I never owned a Ford before. I was in the market for a full size truck. Had the money for a Ranger. 2001 Ranger extended cab. I have had fun in the being able to fix stuff. I still can't get my fog lights aimed. To me thats turning into a joke. My Ranger is the 3L 4X4 version. How is it driving with that cap on the back? True the tint on my back window is dark. Yet with the cap I thought it was hard to back up. Here are a few pictures. I relocated the exhaust since these photos. Red cherry bomb attached to the last CAT. Thats it. Makes the engine sound nice. Welcome to the Ranger forum. Also welcome to the Ranger following. Lots of long time owners here. Enjoy.
