Sorry but I have not made it through all 1281 posts... LOL... I am trying!

I have a few questions.

How light is your build (weight)? Were there a ton of weight savings using the ranger?

How is the frame holding up to all the power? Did you have to beef it up?

How do you like 2wd? I have watched a ton of the videos and it seems to hook pretty well. Ever wish you had 4wd?

I think the cab and bed are about the only ranger parts left. Iirc it is a tube chassis

No tube chassis. Only part not ranger is the frame behind the cab. It's a prostreet truck that class requires stock frame/firewall but allows back half

Weighs 4651 with me in it race prepped

In your opinion Matt is the tsd crew the go to guys for 6.0/5r trucks?

I know that's a near impossible question to answer.

You talking about tuning or what?

swinky · Dec 8, 2014

Yessir

Cutting-Edge Diesel · Dec 8, 2014

I use Matt or Chris. Chris is doing the tuning on the ranger exclusively

figured out why it was pushing water at the end of last season. Got a fresh head that will go on and ready to go! good news was the gaskets were perfect so the studs are doing their job.

I plan on redoing part of the cage and getting it certified at our local track's chassis day.
