Seeing a few of these in the wild now I would think it would look better with a lift in the front to level it out. Can't wait to get one in 15 years to build into a trail rig....

Their article did the 3.0 gears into a 4.0 case. But they also listed the gears from an f150 trans as well. Do the f150 gears work in a ranger case? Then you get a 4 something first gear.....

I have the superior axle c clip eliminator kit in my ranger. Think it is the same as the Yukon kit. I bought it installed in the axle already.

Building a winch bumper for our 01 Explorer. Currently selling for $300 shipped in the USA. You need to provide the 2x2 tubing and mounting hardware.

I make a kit front bumper that you weld together.

I bought used Alcan springs I am installing on Tracy's Jeep. They are a well respected company. I have a friend running them on his Commando and likes them.

Yes. PM and we can work out the details.

What gimble do you use? I want to start making some better videos.

Awesome video. What kind of drone do you have?

Do a little at a time and don't bite off to much at once.

I wish I could make Moab this year. Unfortunately just not in the cards.

Nice pickup. Cant wait to see the build out.

Glad to see the BII getting some updates. One more thing to add to the Dash/ Doors interchange on the Rangers is 93-94 doors are different then the 95-97 doors. They have different part numbers. My understanding is it externally they are the same. Just the way the interior panels attach is...

Been cold working on the east coast this winter. Should be gone here soon.

I can work with that. We will be down that way around Easter. Hope to be able to stop by and see you guys and get the doors out of your yard.

Put a quick video together showing how the front hanger goes together.

Pretty much the same as I dropped both ends of the springs the same amount.

But after wheeling in the snow I have finally had enough of the axle wrap I am getting so I am working on solving that. I started by deciding to remove the factory block on the rear suspension. However I didn't want to lose the height as the truck sits level. So I built drop frame spring...

So the ranger hasn't been getting any changes as of lately. Most of my free time has been going into Tracy's Jeep. I did take it up to the snow one day. I was with my father in law in his blazer so I didn't push it far. the 3 feet of snow was enough. 20190211_100920 by Matthew Dresselhaus...

It was great to see you again and finally meet Sheri. Also was nice to see the grown up Josh. I hope I can make it back down there again.

Finally caught up with this thread. Wish I would have seen the thread before I checked out the trailer in person. A few things I saw in the pictures I missed in person and was cool seeing the fab side and how it looks now. Can't wait to see it on the trail.

Looking good Jon. Hopefully I can see it all in person someday.

Bumper looks good. Ready to see it mounted on the truck.

Looks good Brian. I have been running the plates on the bottom of my 8.8 the last 4 years or so. I have liked it. It helps slide over rocks that you would otherwise get hooked on. I will still hang a diff up every once in a while but not as much as before.

Awesome. Love the doors.

If you can make it out to California and the Rubicon I will do everything in my power to be able to make that trip. I think 3 to 4 days on the trail would be best. My last Rubicon trip was 2005 I think. Also have another quick run coming up with a friend. Going to try and do Swamp Lake...

Pretty much what Rick said. The race radios use frequencies that they really shouldn't be using. No comment on Rugged Radios but I won't buy from them. If you want more info you can stop by Ham Radio Outlet. They are just off 163 and Balboa I believe. You can also check out...

We use Ham almost exclusively on the trail now with the guys I wheel with. Another example was on our way thru the trail we spread out by about 10 minutes so we weren't eating dust the whole time. But we could talk with each other the entire time. I should have listened to @Rick years ago and...

Dusy was fast. We got to the trail head Monday at 7:30 am. At the trail head we found a guy from Poway broke. He broke a rear axle and rear locker Friday about 7 miles in by himself. He spent two days winching and stacking rocks to get out. He was out of water and basically immobile. We used...

Yes. I can send you a pair.

Where did you move to? You have been MIA for a while. Good to see you back around here.

$325 shipped. I just moved though so it will be about a month till I can make more. Will work on getting more pictures.

The lines you cut are awesome. Really like them. Interested to see what you come up with for the latches. I want to build some similar doors soon.

Very nice.

Down by Fresno you could do Bald Mountain loop. Brewer lake is perfect for stock rigs the last 100 yards or so to the lake can be a bit much but it is a short walk. You could also go to West lake and Strawberry lake. We have taken Stock JKs to Red lake but it does take some rock stacking and...

Good looking rig. When the time comes check out the front winch bumper kit I make.

Hilift jack lift points. Ranger is a guy I met from Sacramento. I didn't buy another one. Yet.....

Then tacked the remaining pieces together. I added all the supports for the winch and outer wings. 20180501_164802 by Matthew Dresselhaus, on Flickr 20180501_174300 by Matthew Dresselhaus, on Flickr 20180501_174328 by Matthew Dresselhaus, on Flickr Then test fit it on the truck. Fit like a...

I built this bumper for the newer rangers and figured a few of you might want to see it. This bumper bolts to the factory bumper mounts. I start with a tape measure paper pencil and bunch of head scratching. Then I transfer it all to the computer into a cad program and eventually cut it my...

Who did you order them thru? New shocks are on my list.
