Hello,

My name is Keri and I was brought here by 2 folks, Big Bastard and bajascott. I live in Vancouver, WA and work as an engineer in Portland, OR. I bought my truck last year and fall in love with it everyday. I bought it pretty much the way it sits but I did put a rear end under it. I used to daily drive it until I bought a Porsche in May.

Specs:
2002, 2wd, 5spd with 4.0L swap. It originally was 2wd with a 2.3L. The kid that built it swapped in a 4.0L from another 2002 Ranger that was 4x4 and left the tranny mated to it. So I have a tcase just hanging out under there. He did not swap over any wiring so I can't get low range in the rear end unless I were to do manual linkage.

Front:
Camburg 5.5" kit
Radflo 2.0's
Fox 2.0 bump stops
Gusseted lower arms
4" Hanneman fiberglass

Rear:
Deaver f23 leaf pack
Fox 14" 2.5's
Dixon Bros Bedcage
Kartek drop hangers
Custom 6" Shackles
Pulled bedsides
8.8 rear end from an Explorer - disc brakes, 4.56 gears, limited slip, trussed

Engine:
2002 4.0 SOHC
AutoFab solid motor and tranny mounts

Interier:
Full CLEAN cab cage - 1.75" x .120 DOM and 1.5" x .120 DOM
Full dash with AC and defrost
Crow 4pt harnesses
Pioneer head unit with 10" sub
CB radio with 102" whip antenna

Misc:
DDM 35w HID's
I have two full size BFG all terrain spares and a customized fabtech tire spinner in the bed
Longacre 17" panoramic mirror
Custom fire extinguisher mount

Loooong to do list!
