Maybe this is better in chit chat, I’m just looking to get ideas for a potential next build. Other than the obvious electronic and aesthetic differences, what’s the low down on 1st Gen and 3rd Gen rangers Any motors to avoid, or just go for 4.0? I would prefer a manual for this build and...

There haven't been many posts here about the new Broncos, so I figured I would document my fathers Bronco he bought new earlier this year. My father was looking at JLs and Broncos to replace his 2011 Mustang as his daily driver, but ended up getting a Bronco since he is a Ford die-hard at...

As fun as my Jeep Gladiator is, it is seriously lacking in power. Well, 7.3L of push rod V-8 will scratch that itch. Unfortunately, 4,900 lb of payload capacity plus radius arms do not make for a comfortable ride. I can do something about that! This is my Ford F350 “Oreo” that is getting a...

Someone asked, and I've got time to kill over the next couple days, so I'm going to try to document the build of my Ranger. I've broken it down to 8 "iterations" of the build based on the pictures I took a long the way. It starts in 2011, traded an 89 Ski Doo Skandic and $300 for this pile. I...

Can I put these 18” F350 take offs Onto this F350 that came with 18” steel wheels without changing the lug nuts? I don’t have an alloy wheel truck to look at right now.

195k miles, 15k on a factory fors trans, propane, runs smooth 12k on craigslist, 10k for irate current reg.

I have a '97 F-super duty obs (2wd, reg cab, straight front axle w/leaf springs, 10 lug rims) I want to put the F-SD suspension and axles under a crew cab f350 of similar year. Does anyone know if most of the holes will be in the f350 frame?

Started out on Pirate around 2000 and I've still got my Willys wagon. I picked up a new to me 59 F100 truck so I thought I'd stop by and say hi. 59 Ford F100, 292, 4speed, divorced transfer case, closed knuckle 44 front, 9" rear, fleetside. So far I've filled 2 dumpsters to the lid with...

Looking for recommendations on who makes a strong stamped housing that will end up as a 609 in an old truck. I have a fabbed housing in it and never liked the look of it. Old currie with a hi9. 38” michelins From a previous Jeep. Driver and off road exploring. No hard core Rock crawling...

2002 4.2 f150 short block core w/oil pan & misc $150 Gone 1990 3.8 Thunderbird Supercoupe Eaton M90 supercharger with all the plumbing, manifolds, pulleys, brackets, balancer, MAF, misc. $250 Had a plan for all this and I have to move on.

Looking at the trailer wiring on my ranger and it has an integrated 4 wire connector in the factory harness. It had a add on 7 blade connector with a pigtail that plugs into the 4 pin connector. Ground is good.... that's it. All regular lights work as expected, so unsure on where to go next...

2005+ front Dana 60. Exact year and mileage unknown. $800 located in Memphis, TN

Been a hell of a weekend, broke an axle in the golf cart at race practice Friday, spent HOURS getting the old stub out of the transmission, replaced bearings while I was in there, and found my belt blew up also. Got everything together and loaded up, and as I pulled into home last night, I...

Considering tears the whole front end out from under my 2005 F-250 and starting over. Its got 160k miles, a 5.4 with 60k miles, coil spacer and 35s. The radius arm brackets are rusting though, the coil buckets are flaking and shitty. Frame looks pretty good from what I can tell. Its been a...

Figured I'd start a build thread for this truck. It is a '69 F250 Camper Special I picked up a while back for 1200 bucks. Story behind it was that it was one of the maintence trucks for an apartment complex the PO's dad owned. It was a running driving truck until it was parked in 2009...

I found a clean F350 with the 6.8/5 speed combo south of here. Well taken care of, and the price is right. Anyone have good/bad/ugly regarding either the engine or transmission? So far all I've heard is OD popping out, and that the V10 is thirsty. Thanks.

OEM or B&M?

Local yards are crap for this year, trying to find the fuse box cover under the steering column in grey for a 90 F150

Is the non-comp version of the ARB for the Ford 9" really so failure prone that spending roughly 3X more on the comp version the best solution? I'm not a racer and don't compete and these 3rds would be going in JHF portal equipped axles so the 3rds should see a lot less stress. I'm a firm...

I am in the beginning planning stages for my F-250 build. I am planning on running the stock 390 FE with an np435. The goal for it is a tow rig/backup daily driver that will mainly see fireroads and snow in the winter time. I would be fine building my own suspension for the front (would like to...
