Bro Lightning #024
« on: October 02, 2014, 07:23:08 PM »
It an official project now.

1996 Ranger
4cyl
5-speed
Not too rusty

The goal of this is to make it a reliable fast Brolite. Its going to get pretty much everything replaced or checked. PS pump is a little noisy, it has a new alternator.

Its from Mount Morris, not sure where it was before that.

Its not too bad, bumper bolts came out easily, looks to have had some brake lines replaced, exhaust is rotted out, not too much rust on the cab, so far one of the cab mounts on the frame is rusted out, I will get further into it this weekend.

I power washed the inside of this thing, it was pretty dirty.

reliable

You could be breaking new ground!!


I'm with sMike. I want mine to have a plate too. All racecars should have plates. For ice cream runs, and ultimate adventuring.

Be hard to have it plated without a windshield.

Dual purpose rigs dont win races, or come in second, or third, maybe second form last if someone breaks...  ;D

I can't find any 500 rangers anywhere. Especially in PA. not to mention they are mostly 4x4. Found more 2wd here in roch.
I've got some guys on the lookout so hopefully something turns up. James at farmington is gonna hate us. Maybe he will just build a bro lite shelf.
