Too clean :) Looks like a show truck here.
 






...it sure is not that clean anymore, this was taken right after i arrived and just before my first run up show's hill...;)

...but it will look good when exploderpilot does the photoshoot thing with the girls...:D
 






So he's the reason everyone's got pin-up girls posing with their trucks...i was getting a little jealous.
 






...here ya go, for those who want to see my truck dirty...:D

...i thought i would throw this in here...since i've gotten my project X alot of people don't know i have a ranger as my daily driver and it was the vehicle which brought me to this board...
...well, it is also an offroad truck but my project X has gotten to see all the trails since it is a little more extreme of a truck...
...that is, until this past weekend...i took it to the mountains and got to play in the snow...

....here is a link to the ranger's registry...

...and here are 2 video's thanks to 90ranajo and diffwhackdaddy...part1 and part2 = my climb up sideshow bob's hill when i first got there....the trucks on top are at the bluff campsite...;)


 












Did you mention what type of paint you used to paint the fenders? And what preparation was needed? I only saw the colors you used.
 






...the driver side never got done...neither did the roof....but if you look at the tailgate and pass side, perfecto...:D
...and i'm not giving out my secret formula...but you can come help and i'll show you the tricks...:p:
 






And whether or not your gonna finish the driver side? :D

EDIT opps slow in posting again
 












Those tires look mean in the snow at the end of the video. And i love that chrome piece under the grill...you wanna maybe trade one day? :)
 






...froader pointed that chrome out to me when i first got it...he told me he hadn't seen another x with it and i've been looking and i haven't seen one either...:scratch:

...the tires did great in the thick snow but on the way up the hill i had my doubts...they did pretty good....:thumbsup:
 












...Harley says,"and they call this a rock garden, HA!"...

...btw, we went there to pick up a spare set of these,pn#28068X in stock, 9.69 out the door...these are the kit if you want to swap from auto hubs to warn manual hubs...if you want stock X manual hubs they are pn#29071 and cost 177 plus tax next day pickup...if you want to upgrade to jeep hubs, they are pn#37780 and run 197 pl. tx. and take 5-7 days to get...;)
