New Pictures of My Truck From New Years

Since the truck now has a new transmission I took it out to Johnson Valley over New Years. Here are some photos of it in action! And the best pictures to date with the 35" tires.



















My HID's at night.



The LED lights that I have on my interior.

Yes. It's an HD GoPro shooting 1080p High Def video. I'll post the video from it someday.

I feel stupid asking this, but is this the Jason that came out to Vegas a few years back for a Ranger meet?

And if it is, Do you remember that yellow Ranger at the meet? That was me...

If this is NOT you.... eh sorry...

I want to see the video as well, my friend just got one of the gopro cams. How do you have it mounted? Looks like a RAM suction mount.

you are all lies! that is not a ranger at all... you hacked and welded so much of it, that it cannot be called ranger, or even ford... the only thing you can call it is... MASTERPIECE!

Love them. They hook up very very well in dirt. Sand is ok. Mud is ok.

Yes, I have. They work really well as flood lights and don't generally don't have a ton of throw.

Yes. They are on both side though and are there to ensure that the AVM hubs don't eject themselves from the wheel hub, again.

?? The camera is mine and the skill is mine.

and yes how are those tires holding up??
Good. Though I've had one flat. It was a fluke though, I got what I can only imagine was a nail in between the tread blocks.

Yup, that was me all right!

Right now it's sitting at about 7 or 8" of up travel in the rear. It was designed with about 12" up. I need to change the spring rate in the rear, right now it's at 300/400 and I'm thinking 350/400 or 300/450 might be the ticket to get the ride height back up. In the photo the rear is compressed on a whoop so it looks worse than it actually is.

how is that tranny holding up? work well for you?
Great thus far!

It's the GoPro HD Motorsports Hero and comes with a suction cup mount.
