Attention all fullsize truck and van owners: There is a new website for enthusiasts like you to get together, chat, and most of all ask questions and provide assistance to those who might need help. Check out
Big Blue Oval
which was created by Jim Oaks, also the owner and creator of
http://www.therangerstation.com
Come check it out, and help it get on it's feet.
Some of my new ideas for this ranger:
The idea is to turn this into a daily driver, pre runner style race truck.
I plan to use the front Twin I-beams and all the front suspension on the E150 and swap the stock ranger suspension out for the van suspension. However, I might go with the softer springs from a stripped down F150 with a 6 cylinder. I will also use the radius arms on the E150 which are longer, which will allow for more travel in the ranger suspension. This should provide about a total of 2-5 inches of lift. In the rear, I might remove a couple leafs from the van leaf pack, and slide them into the stock ranger leaf pack which will lift as well as strengthen the rear. Rear axle wise, I will probably swap 7.5's with the one from my 4x4 because it has the limited slip differential. In the end this should be a pre runner style daily driver.
I have a:
1990 Ford Ranger XLT
Extended Cab
5 spd manual
2.9l Fuel Injection
2 Wheel Drive

Ford Ranger trucks... Parody of "Big Boy Toys" by Aaron Tippin...
I hook a load to my Ranger and I`d head onto the road
To that big ol hill where my two oh trys very hard
Working all day with my little Ford truck
pulling Lawn Mowers, Chippers, and landscapin stuff
thats my poor trucks life however this stays true
this lil Ranger truck still runs ford tough!
Chorus:
Cause Shes a Ford Ranger truck,two nines and four oh�s
three oh two swaps and yankin big loads
Running up the road or crawling in four low
And if they break down, I jack them up in the yard
Pull out my tools, my pride and joy
Man, you gotta love them Ford Ranger Trucks
Now, sometimes S10�s owners just dont understand
how a Ranger can be abused and still kick their ass
I try to explain how ford makes them best
but they still think their Chevy is better than the rest
If I can`t find the words, to make them relize
I just start my motor and and let it take them to their Demise!
Cause Shes a Ford Ranger truck,two nines and four oh�s
three oh two swaps and yankin big loads
Running up the road or crawling in four low
And if they break down, I jack them up in the yard
Pull out my tools, my pride and joy
Man, you gotta love them Ford Ranger Trucks
Yeah, its fours and sixes, five speeds and auto trannys
why bicker over whats best because all Rangers will take a Whammy!
Cause Shes a Ford Ranger truck,
two nines and four oh�s
three oh two swaps and yankin big loads
Running up the road or crawling in four low
And if they break down, I jack them up in the yard
Pull out my tools, my pride and joy
Man, you gotta love them Ford Ranger Trucks!
Oh you gotta love them Ford Ranger Trucks!
