looking for opinions
i have an 85 ford ranger 2.8 v6 4x4
im doing a complete tear down, all the way to the frame, im already getting a bigger engine, a body life, and a suspension lift plus big tires, and a custom paint job
just looking for your opinions on what else i should do to make this truck an extreme off road machine, i live where there are more mudding spots then there are 4x4 trucks here, looking to have some fun with this build up, any ideas would be very helpful if you have any, thanks

Yeah, the 5.0L / 302 is the best thing I could think to do to make it an extreme off road machine. You will need a new tranny. I'd reccomend a manual, but that's just me. Could upgrade the xfer case if you wanted. Another good one would be the differential gearing.
