Just rejoined  FRF after a 10 year ranger/forum hiatus & was told this was the new place to be.

Obviously my name is Zander, my project that spurred joining a forum again is building a 351W/C6/Np208/D60 front/Sterling rear Mud/Trail 93 Ranger

Went and picked a $75 POS 2.3/5spd/2WD that didn't run and didn't have a single nice panel on it.

(This truck will be replaced by another build after this ones finished, to change all the things we find we don't like and will undoubtedly regret doing 1 way after it's built)


I have a background in Machining,fabrication,welding and wrenching, though I now own a playground construction company that serves the midwest.

So just figured I'd scope out what some of you guys had come up with. I'll be starting a build thread to document stuff and you guys can notify me of all the things I could have done better (Don't act like that's not why you're here lol)

So hopefully it'll be cool checking out your builds & joining the community, hope everyone's enjoying the new year!

Here's  a pic of one of the playgrounds pieces I had a part of at the end of 2019. It's supposed to resemble a grader, tribute in a town built off the company that used to build them. Took a few weeks off for the holidays, & Moving from PA to MI, going back to work next week.

I started a build thread in the Members Project/Showcase titled “The ugliest POS on here”, I'll have to get around to throwing some rather unappealing pics as it sits now, it's a body even Hellen Keller couldnt love lol I'll add pics as we get to transforming the pig.

I'll also have to figure out the album link thing to get pics done. 

Thanks for the welcomes, I appreciate it!
