    Has anyone else noticed the explosion of old, way overpriced, Ford Rangers on their local craigslist. Many are approaching Tacoma prices. Not a Ford hater but, even in todays high market, a Ranger is still a Ranger. Before I retired we had one for our office vehicle. It had 11k miles and rode like a Taco with 10" wheels and no shocks. I saw a stock 4 x 4 one today with 170k miles asking $11k. That's borderline criminal if not outright insane.

    Gotta love the post requirement! You can’t post because you don’t meet the threshold, but you can’t meet the threshold because you can’t post…

    As an aside, I am curious how you like your tool box short bed combo? I thought about a toolbox, but these short beds already have zero room in them. I hated the idea of giving up the little room we already have.

    Sort of reminds of one of my old Fords. I like it.

    Front’s done! Foxes, JD Fab uca’s, oe lca’s, superbumps. Hopefully it’ll get a good alignment, didn’t think I’d have bent cam tabs & such :facepalm:

    Good luck with your's. I replaced all my suspension and they had to cut off the alignment tabs because they had seized. When they cut off the tabs it ruined what life was left in the LCA bushings so I just had them replace the LCAs, too.

    :eek: Ugh. Putting a pic of that in here is: Mean, Hurtful, Uncalled for.... Made worse because I didn't even know it existed and I have already exceeded my quota for Milwaukee gizmos this year as declared by: (take a wild guess)

    Can't go complaining about it and acting up either because the better half just gave me THIS, for my Birthday: It's definitely the "Tasmanian Devil" of recip saws. (I know: I'm dating myself) It's nasty and I'm afraid of it, but it gets the job done. quickly. I had the wrong blade in it and it still cut through the metal brackets, bolts, etc on an old wooden swing set. it wasn't happy about it, but it got the job done.

    Blinking ac light is usually compressor related issues.

    But I have added an efan and if I hit the override button to run it at 100% the ac does get colder. This will not fix your problem though.

    Well luckily I know the actual cams are okay, since I pulled them out to replace the lower control arms. I marked the current alignment spots and was able to get everything back, my fear is it not staying within alignment

    Looks awesome, you’re going to love that setup . As far as alignment time for some taco tabs from poly performance. Then you can set and forget your caster forever.
