Looks interesting, I would definitely toss in a zerk fitting on there, I've seen that set-up a bit and it works great...
Looking forward to seeing it wheelin :icon_thumby:
There's a reason I bought my acura man...
A truck will always do that kind of stuff to ya.
I woulda been flippin stoked to hit 23 mpg on the freeway in my ranger... I never got about 20.
And you are driving a box on wheels. it kinda catches wind easily.
But yes, definitely not a highway...
I've never seen a point on putting dual shocks on anything.
I'd go for the skyjacker just for that. And I'm not a fan of progressive rate coils either...
But I've ran neither so my opinion is useless pretty much :icon_rofl:
Build threads seem to slip through the cracks sometimes, and not till they're bumped up months later do I even notice them...
What joints are you planning on using?
I wouldn't trust those tractor supply joints if thats what you're looking at...
search for cheap thrills old build thread on his bII... well, ranger on a bII frame. Same thing. He dovetailed the front. I can't remember how detailed he went in on the pinch in the thread.
I'd say so. I love those little trailers... I'll be inheriting one like it eventually... as long as it doesn't fall apart on a hunting trip.
They aren't that heavy so I'd say no worries.
Oh yay... radial vs bias time.
If you rarely drive it on the street, get the bias (just cuz they're cheaper)
Bias tires tend to wear more on the street and develop bigger flatspots after sitting.
Wheither radial or bias performs better off-road... well... Ford or Chevy?
What are you doing here? I must have missed something when I was out hunting... (not starting anything, i'll pm ya)
But about c4c... GOOD. More rbv's in the junkyard to snag parts off of. Maybe they'll start lowering the prices for body panels... $300 per door my ass...
I've found it's...
what tire size were you running before? What tread are you running now? What's your gear ratio?
What rpm were you at in 4th at 50?
What year is it?
Who's the president?
We'll get you checked out at the hospital... :icon_twisted:
My guess is your gearing is a lil high for low power and 31's.

There's a removable top section in this article.
I would personally want a removable top if I ever got my hands on a bII
Way to bring up an old thread, although I like jason's last post, and I REALLY want a carb'd engine right now. Why? FI is a pain in the ass, clutters up the engine bay, and I want to run propane which can run at any angle :D
Chop the top and put a real cage in :icon_thumby:
The scout I'm building is just a pavement pounder/summer cruiser/hunting rig, but it's still gonna have a full rollcage anyway just for safety if it gets in an accident or we get too adventurous trying to find deer.
