A couple weeks ago I decided to buy my son a 4x4 Ford Ranger. He's been eager to take it out wheeling since he has gotten
it. So we decided to go out to my friends ranch in the flint hills
in eastern kansas. Overall the Ranger did pretty
well and kept up with the Liberty on just about everything.

My son enjoying his truck.



My Jeep looks kind of funny with the street tires on it, I decided to let my son use my MTR's while we were out there.

We were pretty impressed with the flex of the Ranger for being stock. (Tires didn't rub either!!!)

I know a local guy with a Ranger and he loves it. he just did a 3" body lift on it and some 33s. had a front custom bumper done too, by the guy doing my rear one actually.

I think were going to put a two inch spring lift on it. But first were going to paint it this spring. It's going to be wild.( flames )

A lot of us tried to convince him to skip the BL but he was dead set. Good to hear you are going with a spring lift.

It's got the 3.0 V6 with a 5 speed manual. Are you getting the MJ from the other thread ?
