There are a couple more visits from Mr. Rubbing Compound yet to go. But first Mr. Sander and Ms. Duplicolor have to pay a call. All I want is a 20/20 paint job. From 20 metres away, at 20 km/h, it will look good!

Crucial repair job #1: no blower fan action. Considering the rainy climate I live in, having actual air move across the actual windshield is probably a good thing. It doesn’t work on any speed, so probably a power or ground problem. Fuse: Yup, it’s good. Power to the fan: Yup, it’s good. Fan...

I got my threads mixed up. I meant to put my build/repair updates here, not in New Members. First update: new air filter, lubed the squeaky creaky clutch pedal, crossbars mounted, and (drum roll please)… NEW TIRES! Yeah, I know a lot of you guys are doing 3 and 4 inch lifts and the like, but...

Side note to my side note: When I ordered the tires from the distributor, he replied that I had “some kind of weird size going on there.” Dude, you’re the one with 62 of them in your Canadian warehouse… :D Edit: 58 of them. FTW.

First update: new air filter, lubed the squeaky creaky clutch pedal, crossbars mounted, and (drum roll please)… NEW TIRES! Yeah, I know a lot of you guys are doing 3 and 4 inch lifts and the like, but this ain’t no 4x4, this ain’t no pre-runner. The Grabber A/Tx tires are 1” bigger diameter...

Yeah, but I didn’t say “left of left” anything. I’m guessing TRS is Big Brother-ed by the same Big Brother that runs my other forum (where I did actually say that). And before anyone goes all stalker on me, that’s the previous owner’s BC plate! :cool:

That’s weird. I didn’t name my location. That must have automatically filled itself in from another forum where I use the same name. Kinda creepy. Of course, you are correct, I live on the PRVI, and my truck was bought new in the same town where I live. Thanks for the offer, so far there is no...

So far, not so much, but you are On A Roll!!!

Excellent try! But wrong! (I am impressed, though. Here’s a pic of the hood.)

I’m just gonna start posting here, so that (if nothing else) I can look back in months or years to come and say “oh, yeah, I did/was gonna do/shouldn’t have done that!” Despite the fact that camping is unlikely this year (don’t ask), and kayaking will be a logistical struggle, I decided to buy a...

The only ID tag is a label on the side windows. That just tells me who made the side windows. :p Given the angle of the sides compared to the cab, it doesn’t appear to have been made for my ‘92 Ranger, but it fits. (If I knew who made the cap, I’d be trying to get a rear window, which is...

Hah! I have no idea who the manufacturer is, and it appears to be a black canopy brush-painted to “match” the truck. It has a two-layer roof, so I’m going to assume there’s some kind of foam insulation in there. Not drilling that, no way. there were brackets screwed to the sides at the corners...

I made a roof rack I bought on clearance three cars and ten years ago fit my canopy! Best $60 I’ve ever spent. (Gonna take some work to get the bike and kayak fixtures to work with a six foot spread, though.)

Isn’t everything up to ‘92 1st Gen? Or does the facelift count? Either way, it’s my favourite look for the Ranger. For the record, I used to own my Ranger’s granddaddy:

Hello all, I just picked up a beater Ranger for camping/kayaking. Don’t expect any cool build threads, ‘cuz this truck ain’t goin’ down that road. ’92 2WD 3.0 L (I wanted a 4 cylinder, but you can’t be picky AND cheap). It has my favourite stock rims, although they’re a) not too pretty and 2)...
