Well. Ranger is taking a back step in production. Was wheeling and steering bolt sheared out. No way to move the wheel so corner of front hit a tree. No airbags went off. And I was able to stop the truck in the ditch of the woods before hitting two massive oak trees.
Tow truck took 4 hours. So I cancelled it. Good friend of mine came with bolt and tools. Was out there till 4am. Counting my lucky stars as I drove to work today and made it out with just a few bruises from having my arms in the engine bay.
Glad you're ok. When are you going to do a 4wheel conversion? Everything else on the truck looks ready for it.
A 4x4 swap is def in the plans of the truck. But the act to truly convert it. I'm looking at about $3,000 total. And that's with installation and welding done by me and dad. Also. Truck is my only vehicle at the moment I can drive to work. While I have full confidence I could do it in a weekend, lack of money and time is what is the issue. So the 4x4 swap isn't at the top of the list just yet. I've got a lonngggg list to do and prepare this truck to be able to perform it's best. I'm doing it right the first time so I don't have to backpedal anymore.
