Mine's not as big, but we caused some damage with it.

'78 Ford Ranger with a '77 grill.
351M C-6, NP203, 9" rear, reverse rotation 44 up front.
10" lift with 40's under it.
10 point cage and harnesses.





The coolest thing about this truck was it was my daily driver. (when gas was cheap)

Skyjacker Soft ride "Yea right", NOT, but anyway rear part # FR56 S, front F746 S

Got all 4 springs, with u-bolts, 8 shocks (2 for duel steering stabilizer, and 2 duel front shock kit, steel braided brake lines, old style "Go Rino" skid plate for front and rear.

Drop pitman arm and adj center link for a grand outa Cali, sorry to say it was off the craigslist. Shipping was 300, yes I was a happy man that day.

I would say it has no flex and a stiff ride, but its a mudder not a crawler.

You bet, those spun aluminum full moons will keep the mud out & I think they look kinda cool.

Can you get a FORD logo stamped in them ???? Even cooler IMO. And just noticed your bumpers, way cool also.

I've never seen them with ford stamped in them, that would be super cool.
These are meant for old lead sleds or salt flat racers, I thought they would work great on a mud bogger. The bumpers are for a different project, they just happen to be under my truck in the pics. I'm going for super light weight for the bogger, no big bumpers on this one.
