1998 ranger build

I think the spray on is better as there is no gap for compensation to accumulate. It is a complicated subject. Mine stayed uninsulated, so long as the five gallon jug doesn't freeze solid I'm good to go.

That's what I'm thinking, decided to stop at the u-pull on my way home from work today. Was only looking for a non rusty gas door but I left with 99 expo double visors, ohc, and harness down the a pillar. Then I ran out of time. Tomorrow I'm going back to grab 2 rust free manual doors and a rubber floor. Maybe the rest of the harness and temp sensor who knows yet lol but I brought the cashier lady a coffee so I only paid 17$ for it all :)

100 mile road trip to see a guy about new upper control arms and lower ball joints for both sides, 40 bucks for the lot. Went to the yard wed again and today and left with two doors with non powered mirrors and windows and a dash bezel with the fog switch, that'll come in handy:) the harness is in my dash but I don't know how complete it is or if the truck came with them. Anyone know if ford will send me a build sheet if I give them the vin like cryco did for all the jeeps I built?

Went to work this morning then popped in the family cabin for a sec and took at nice 3hr ride back home. Worth it to clear my head. And to let me know my drums are due, so that's on the table for tomorrow

Found a set of those visors today (2001 explorer)... installed; had to drill 2 holes in my explorer (small dents were provided by Ford to locate them)... Thanx again!
... wonder if they would fit a Jeep TJ...

Enjoy!

Looks good, I need to find some round LED fogs so that I can set them into the TJ bumper (like a JK Sahara)... I know they are out there, just gotta find them; shopping is the fun part!

Enjoy!

Did a quick little thing just now. The weather's sitting at 39 today that's why it took so long to put them on since I got them :) I mounted it on the drivers side because as i build the drawer system all my recovery and maintenance tools will be on that side behind that wing and the pass side will be left open and screened :)
