I'll start by saying that i know its not everyones style to put this motor in a Ford or to lay body on BIG wheels, but i know what i have in mind for the finished product will amaze some people hopefully. I know its a little rough right now but it has undergone some bigtime mods. Hopefully everyone will check back from time to time to see the progress.
I have a lot of respect for all custom vehicles, no matter what style of modifications are done. Why?...Because they are original. Thanks for checking out my ride....
If my performance mods rating is low, i dont understand that, fitting this motor into a Ranger has been a lot of work(plus the turbo)...i guess 400+ HP and non MASSIVE tire spinning torque isnt cool enough for some people who don't like imports...
When I first got into this truck scene, I just wanted to have the sickest Ranger ever built and have it on a cover of a magazine. But after watching the Cardinals and Steelers football game, I got to thinking. Who won the game a few years back? Its hard to remember unless it was your team that won or lost. I dont want to have the truck that is celebrated then forgotten. I want it to be remembered, I want it to motivate the next guy that is going all out on a truck. Thats what Blazarado, Time Machine, FarFromLuzon did for me. Those trucks are etched into my memory and are the first to come to mind on SICK one of a kind memorable trucks. Freemans yota came before I got into all of it, but that truck also, even though I have only seen a few pics of it, comes to mind. I want to have the same impact with 22Below, thats why I want you to remember 22Below. Thats why 22Below WILL be finished one day....
