What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

[Bob902]

I guess she looks stock, but she's on KO2's, Fox 2.0 suspension, and tremor leafs. She was leveled before I put the ARB bumper and winch on..... I think OME suspension will be in the nearish future for me.

That's still pretty close to stock. To hear all the jeep boys, nobody other than heavily modified jeeps can make it.

I couldn't do the hardEST lines, but I didn't take any bypasses and just had to scrape a little to get through. Fins 'n Things is certainly not limited to built jeeps and OHV's.

Used it as mobile scaffolding to put a cabinet up in the garage.

Did you paint your steelies white? Looks really nice.

Went on a little camp outing to the Olympic National Forest. And yup, we’re probably the only “overlanders” still using a ground tent.

Kate and I did a vacation through the Olympic Peninsula way back in 1995. We still talk about it and it's one of the most beautiful places - just incredible.

Thanks for the pics! =)

Yes, thanks. I used duplicolor wheel paint. Did a few coats, used maybe three cans.
I almost had them powder coated but the rattle can job is holding up still after a few months.

Thanks for letting me know what you used. I used to paint my FJ-40 rims but they'd get beat up pretty fast.

I'll check it out (but not sure what I want for my race red Ranger - black is old school, but so am I!). =)

I was looking at your rims again and just noticed maybe some lights?

In the grill next to the headlights, are those LEDs?

Upon further zooming, I can't tell what that is, now it looks like alien symbols! =D

Yeah it’s got amber strobes front and rear on a switch. Backup and in box lights on second switch. Still haven’t figured out what the third switch does. It’s also got some kind of cell phone booster under the seat, not sure how it works.
From the carfax I can see the truck was serviced in TX and ND regularly. I was thinking it was some kind of an oil field truck. It’s also got heavy duty vinyl seat covers.

Looks like M&M's for the switches but they look nicely placed. I like that one of them is a mystery switch!

And I;m really curious about that booster thing!

I used to work at an oil refinery and I’d see the out of state guys with the cell booster antennas mounted to the toolbox. I’ve got holes in my toolbox were an antenna was mounted…

the third switch operates the tracking device linked to the cell antenna booster.
back at ABC Oilfield Services, they are still watching where their old truck goes.

Studying my oil consumption?

Little bit of Northern Saskatchewan driving.

Looks like a beautifully squatchy area...

Did nothing with it but finally got the call from the Dealership that the bodyshop had dropped it off and I could come get it. Monday would be 3 weeks at the bodyshop.
Asked the guy had my tonneau cover been installed, told me he'd call me back.
He called back and said it hadn't been installed and said let them keep it over the weekend so they can get to it early next week and he was going to put the order in after we got off the phone to get it done.
They're not charging me to put it on and I have a nice courtesy vehicle so what's a few more days

Drove 'er to work early this am (4am). Filled up with gas. Drove 'er home! Love driving this Ranger!

We hauled a load of donated food from the local Festival Foods store to our church food pantry this morning.
