1994 ranger build “Billy Bob”

[Cgiles01]

Picking up this 94 ranger for my son to build he is 11 and already has a good collection of parts for this build.
Right now it is a 2wd truck. Plan is to use d44 beams and a 9” rear. Drivetrain will be a gen 1 Coyote he already has rear is getting linked. This will be his daily driver and toy when he starts driving in 5 years so lots of time to build it. Picking the truck up for $1500

What are you going to do for brake booster and master cylinder ? Ive been redneck researching (forums) a Fiesta booster and master cylinder swap because they are so tiny. It will buy a lot of room for my coilover and potentially a bypass in the future.

Some what build related when we worked on my dad’s Bronco the other day I started to teach my boy to tig. Not a bad little pass for only messing with it for a hour his first time.

We have a guy that wants the wheels that were on the truck so last night we got some adapters and swapped a set of rollers I had laying around on the truck. He tossed my spare on to see how it looks with 37’s also. But boy does it look better with some truck wheels on it.

Awesome redirection, I was about to ask how you planned on getting that 2WD made into a 4WD. My kid asked me same question, I said find a parts truck for a swap...LOL

Looking good man.
