When we first started Project Desert Ranger I had a set of 6” KC Daylighters which seemed impressive compared to the factory Ranger lights. After adding the FOX remote reservoir shocks to the rear (and of course the Dixon kit in front) we were able to go faster off-road and this included the night time as well.

You just bought a new Ford Ranger and you hate the factory stinkbug stance it came with. How do you fix this on the cheap?…Crank the torsion bars up.
In less than a minute with only an impact gun in hand you can get almost 2 inches of lift in the front of your newer independent front suspension Ranger.

There are a lot of people that would like to enjoy the look of a prerunner for their truck, but don’t have a few thousand to put into them. A great way to get the look on a budget is with a Spindle Lift Kit.

Fuel Efficiency and Prerunners seems a little contradictory. With the price of gas the way it is, and since most of us drive our prerunners on a daily basis we decided to see if we could find some way to get a few more MPGs out of our Desert 4x4 Project Ford Ranger.
One of the biggest problems with fuel efficiency and prerunners is their inherent lack of aerodynamics. Let’s face it with 6” bulge fiberglass fenders and no factory bumper our Project Ranger is about as aerodynamic as a barn. I had no idea this was going to be such a big deal when driving on the highway. To give you an example of how “anti-aerodynamic” our Ranger is, when we were headed to Ontario for the SoCal Dirt & Sand Expo, we were heading into the wind. We had to stop in Victorville and fill up. This means we were getting about 8-10 mpg. That is horrible for a V6. On the way home with the wind behind us we used a little over ½ of a tank. |
