"Cheap" and "expensive" are relative terms. To me, really "cheap" is less than $50, when it comes to the truck. If you want to go faster without spending any money, just push harder on the gas.
What price range do you have in mind?

How fast are you looking to go. I have yet to see a Ranger that couldn't hit it's speed limiter.

Didn't say should. Said could.IF it's running right!
Also, Ranger yes, Driver NOOO!!
I have yet to see a Ranger that should hit it's speed limiter. I've had mine above 85 before. That was scary.

A guy I used to know had a BII (that I am still trying to sell for his parents) that was sketchy at 35.
Brinker and I fixed that though. Now it's good to at least 45. We didn't go much faster since it isn't registered or inspected or insured. You know, the basics.
My 87 rattles and shakes and just doesn't feel right by 80. 70 to 75 is a nice cruise on the open highway, but I take a long time to get it up there. I haven't actually taken it past 70 since I put the 4.0 in.
My BII just doesn't do 85. It barely does 65. But that's the driver, he won't put his foot down and make the 2.9 move.
