I'm looking forward to seeing the final results. I was curious if this has the 3rd brake light or will the original need to be relocated.
It has the 3rd break light in the center, I'll take pics of the install. I was an electrician in the army so shouldn't be too hard.

Just because someone thinks that something is ridiculously priced doesn't necessarily mean that they can't afford it, just that it's not worth that amount to them.

I can afford the full box set of all seasons of the Kardashians.

But I'm certainly not going to buy it :)

And insinuating that someone must be poor simply because they have different taste than you is a bit rude, don't you think?

Also, you mentioned that you were Corona free, did you have it?

If so, Kudos and Godspeed to you for beating that crap!

Good point and hilarious. I joined because of the good peeps here and to ask for help. If I can't be positive or contribute, I'll be polite enough to not comment.

I did have Coronavirus, beat it after a month in the hospital. It's no joke..Thank you for the kindness.

how did you get it? traveller? someone you had close contact travelled? careless with the social distancing?

Where I am from most of the them ended up as close contact after it was brought to the area by travellers...many I assume who took the repatriation flights home after being abroad.

as for your headache rack or aerodynamic fairing, whatever its called, I was going to say there are alot of composite fabricators out there that could design something for you for a price. IMHO a one off fabrication would be worth the cost to be unique.
Hi Ranger Pride,
I retired at 40 from being a professional Fire-P.Medic and then went into the medical device world.
I took a leave of absence from medical device to fill in for sick firefighters and contracted it from an international traveler who was in Orlando before the lockdown. Idiots really. I wouldn't wish that crap on anyone and I've been exposed to a lot.
I may look at composite fabricators as I never thought of that, great idea really so thank-you. I'll look around the net today to see what I can find. No doubt I could sell the I've ordered pretty quickly.

Stay safe and thanks for the idea.

Basically, you need to give up on the dream of running that setup.
Hmm, who invited Debby Downer to the party? It ain't rocket science.... it most certainly could be made to fit.

Where there's a will, there's a way.

True, I just think it's absolutely a HUGE waste of time and money to take a chance on a kit that's not designed for a vehicle, ESPECIALLY when it's being shipped overseas for a premium. But if you have the resources, sure go for it, I guess... Lol. :rolleyes:

One man's dream is another man's folly. Sometimes the cost to be truly different isn't cheap.

I'm looking forward to Morphine's build thread!

Thank you HenryMac....
The shopping came out to $238 USD, I got the piece for $250. It was designed for the Ranger and the dimensions are the same, so I'm not worried at all.

Thanks for being positive! Can't wait to throw it on...

I guess if you're poor that would be the case. I'm not so it's not so no big deal to me... It'll look nice next to my Audi Q5.

Thanks for being positive. Enjoy your hamburger helper and trailer.

Never realized there were so many negative retards on this forum. Ignore setting engage. Haaa
Never realized there where assbags in here that have nothing better to do than act 12 and add nothing beyond calling names.

I guarantee I am far from poor. Doesn't mean I'm going to be paying stupid prices for a rack.

And you post was the least helpful I have seen in these forums

$250... Well done!

There are folks here that have paid nearly $200 for a couple fender vents or $250 for a rear bed step.

Please post a lot of photo's once you get the parts... and do a detailed installation.

I did it with the mustang style headlights and got burned but you know what I'm man enough to own my mistakes. If they had worked I'm sure lots of people here would have applauded my effort . Good news is Paypal gave me my money back but the time and energy I put into trying to get them to work can not be recovered. Just because you don't think it's worth it doesn't give you free chip shots at those who do. You could have saved yourself time by just not commenting.

Well said, I'll post pics of mistakes or success, it's fun to put our own stamp on our vehicles!

Honestly not bad at all for something that big. I order rare motorcycle parts I can't get in the states from Japan all the time. (and various other parts of the world)

Looking forward to seeing it installed and bookmarking the thread.

Good to hear that you have recovered from the virus! I cannot imagine having to battle something that so little is known about. I hope you will be able to get back to full strength soon.

As far as the subject of adding the bar, it's your truck, your money and your time. That is all that matters. I'm very interested to see the finished product!

Just sold my 2008 Blue Ranger FX4 that had every option available and purchased a 2019 chilli pepper red Lariat. Orlando Firefighter Medic, so the color is awesome for me.

I've been reading the forum but have had trouble finding any info or where I can buy this roll bar in the U.S. It's from the Wildtrack that's available in the UK and NZ. I've found them on eBay but the shipping is ridiculous from England. If anyone has any info, I'd appreciate it. I love the look and would like opinions from the peeps here. Hopefully it fits the U.S. Ranger.
