    L1224R +06 rear lights

    Update on mine: I popped my taillights off the other day for some cleaning and discovered I only converted one of the L1224R's with the stock 3157 base! So I busted it out and topped them off with some "tone leveler"...IE painted the bases below the glass that protrudes into the lamp...

    Front park turn sig bulb /led

    I may be going out on a limb here, but I believe you've got a lot more room to work with in the front housings than you do the rears. You can always take a tape measure or stick a straw through the hole in the housing and measure/make a Sharpie mark. Preferably on the outside edge of the hole...

    I see the reasoning behind it. It serves a purpose. Good on 'ya!

    1999 to 2001 front end conversion

    I may be slow and somewhat retarded, but it doesn't mean I can't or didn't read before posting... With such a small area to cover, why not make it look right/attractive until you do paint the hood?? If you like red wiper arms, hey, more power to ya. I don't. Looks south-of-the-border...

    Ammo Shortage

    WOOT! I love Cabela's... Picked up another 500 rounds of .223 @ $7 a box... Perfect timing considering I JUST finished my first AR build!

    Rotor sizes ?

    There was once a kit to adapt 13" COBRA rotors onto 98/01+ Rangers....but the gentleman who made the caliper brackets backed out of production. But x2 on what Bob had said above in post #3. Stick with stock. There's no easy upgrades for you other than pads and rotor style (slotted, drilled +...

    Want to buy: wanted suspension lift 98-12

    I have a 5.5" RCD kit with low miles. There's a guy interested in it about 3 hours north of me and his name's already on it. If he doesn't nab it up, I'll update this thread.

    L1224R +06 rear lights

    Neat idea, but NOT a fan. More power to 'ya. Like I said, I soldered and shrink tubed mine....looks factory and isn't a mosh/posh of parts wired together.

    1999 to 2001 front end conversion

    Why doesn't anyone PAINT their grille when they do this swap?? It's a READILY available product at your local auto parts store?? And please, paint your wiper arms satin black.

    06+ grille emblem size

    Cracking and finish flaking is VERY common in the 06-08 blue ovals. The colored emblems are only for the ones that are two-piece and not gel inserted. Unfortunately, '05 Ranger was the last year that was an option to owners. '04-05 F150 badges are the same 9" as the '06 Ranger badges, but the...

    Lower ball joint replacement.

    Hmm.....that's odd. That's all I've ever ran on mine ever since I replaced the factory ones at 60k or so during my lift install. Moog #K8695T (Problem Solver). They went in beautifully and the unplanned replacement of one last year was a breeze as well. All with the same factory LCA's...

    Coil over information

    Mine are pretty much just like Scrambler's. Except my support gusseting is more angled out instead of being almost parallel. As well as more angled at the top....this allows for easy installation of the upper coil-over bolt. My experience with the couple RCD kits I used to personally work on...

    Ammo Shortage

    525...that's cute. HAHA! UGH I need to go shooting!!!!! These two ammo boxes are getting DAMN heavy. Have you held an LCP? I just can't get comfortable with it in my hand....nor can I get confident. Try a LC9 or LC380. Slightly bigger but still considered a pocket gun, yet smaller than...

    some updated pics

    ^THIS. Like yesterday. DO IT. Get a new header panel and use the old one for a mock-up jig. Plugging in D2S into a Ranger as designed leaves maxing out the lower adjusters forward and maxing out the upper adjuster rearward in order to get correct vertical adjustment. Did Grant's...do not...

    L1224R +06 rear lights

    Later, I retrofitted a set of factory bulb holders onto the L1224R's by cutting off the LED's "twist knobs", cutting apart the bulb holder so it would fit perfectly onto the LED with a little gap below for the rubber sealing ring. Scuffed the outer surface of the LED and the inner of the new...
