So my old man decided that we were going to level out the backyard. The Ranger has been used for just about everything except for hauling pallets of brick, 4x4's, and 2x4's. Those were put in the trailer behind the F-150. I even hauled 240 pickets in the bed of the Ranger and about 30 bags of mortar and cement mix, just not all at once. We built a retaining wall to level out the yard so we can rebuild a section of fence on it. I've hauled almost 20 loads of dirt in the bed of my Ranger so far. I figured some of you guys like to tear up your yards and build stuff like this so I thought i'd share.

 

looks like some work but nice job.

 

Dangit, Tom....where the heck are the good full color shots of the truck!?!?!??? haha.

 

Yes. The wall is about 160 cinder blocks. Lots of mortar and cement.

I use my truck as a truck. It doesn't get washed and waxed every other day.

 

eff off, bastard! Mine hasn't been washed in quite some time too! a month or so....and before that it was 2 months. Bedsides and tailgate covered in ATF still from that bad tcase output seal too! STFU & GTFO.


lol.

 

I LULZ

I don't think i've even washed this thing yet. My girlfriend and I cleaned out the interior about a month ago. I hosed off all the GD pollen today, but the **** came back. Right now the interior is covered in pollen and dirt.

 

haha.... yeah I just pressure washed my brothers truck's nooks and crannies from moss, pollen, sandbag stains, bird ****...the works. lol. It sits 8-10weeks parked under a tree while he's at school. It's like a new tradition when he comes home....pressure wash the filthy little truck!

 

Yeah pollen here is a ***** right now. Do work!

 

Holy Jesus you ain't kiddin'! I sprayed it off and within 10 minutes it was covered in pollen again.

 

Are these full color enough Shane?

 

Looks good man

 

flex it in the pool








antna leuks gud

 

Ha.

My truck is NOT going in my pool. Big no no!

 

My dad and I did a similar job about a year ago but we put peagravel and some 6" hoses at the base to drain away sitting water. Looks good! I hated having my Ranger squat that much...

 

i hope that wall stays up, if we were to build something like that up here..it would fall over the first winter from the freeze/thaw and frost movement. crazy to see different weather zones and how things get built..

anyways, the ranger is a bad boy for work! i work my truck all the time, and it can handle the loads great!! just throw a nice helper leaf in there and u wont have that squat.

 

I filled in each hole in each hole in each cinder block as we went along with either rock, dirt, both, and some cement in them. I don't think we'll have any issues. I'll take some pictures of the brick wall we built around the corner when I get back from getting a haircut.

 

looks like a bunch of work! Nice results though for sure.
Is that a Honda Recon?

 

2006 4x2 Honda Rancher ES.

 

Here's some more progress and pics of another wall and brick stairs we built about 1 1/2 years ago.

 

ahh that's an awesome quad. I have a 2001 Recon 4x2 and it is a great little all around bike
