Hey everyone! Sorry I've been absent for a bit. Bought an airplane so I've been flying that instead of working on the Ranger. Anyway, started the roll cage install and progress was halted by a broken power switch on my MIG welder. Short video below!

Didn't finish the crossover per se, as I have about half of the finish welding to do, but we'll call it complete. Very happy with how it looks and especially my use of space and not sticking out much beyond the crank pulley (only a little on the driver's side) as there was only an inch or two...

Made good progress recently. Pax header is done and hot side routing complete minus the crossover. Need to get some 1" tubing to actually mount the turbo to the Maven Performance turbo mount. Goal for today is to finish the crossover. I'm quite happy with how this is turning out both...

Today is very exciting. I've been waiting on this box for two months now! They were behind on machining compressor wheels. Weighs in a 35lbs so it will definitely be needing a mount and not just relying on the hot side tubing to support. Gen 2 PT7675 Sportsman with v-band flanges. Big thanks to...

Engine and trans are mocked up on the engine bay. Ordered a set of forward facing turbo headers from Summit hoping they would get here yesterday or today so I could work through the long weekend, but of course they shipped from the Sparks, NV location so they aren't expected until Monday...

Oil pump gears installed today. Took 4 hours all said and done...not bad. Using the 3 arm Chrysler balancer puller as recommended on other forums was a huge help. Time for the drivetrain to go back into the truck, fab up some motor mounts, get the steering rack mounted, then off to the welder...

Not a super exciting update this time around. After letting the trans sit a few weeks, I checked it again with air and I'm fairly confident I was just using too much PSI last time. It is back together now and ready to be cleaned and installed. Up next is the oil pump gears. This video also has...

Replacement is on order...supposed to show up sometime next week

Hot one today in Eastern NC with the heat index over 100, but we persevered and got the trans torn down. This is the clutch plate from the low speed clutch. Every tooth has what looks like spalling, and I can't wrap my head around where it would come from since that basically sits against the...

Tore into my 6R80 (14 F150) to do Stage 2 clutches and a new TSS Intermediate shaft to prep for going turbo. Everything looks fine except for the pressure plate in the low clutches. These galls/spalls are consistent around the entire part and I have no idea where they may have come from. Any...

Front suspension is all in and the truck is finally off jackstands. Up next is oil pump gears for the engine and a billet intermediate shaft and new clutches for the transmission. Then we can start putting everything back together!

New video from this weekend's progress. I got the crossmember in FINALLY. One hiccup- I thought I had 2x4 channel so I cut everything for that....I actually have 2x3. Confirmed with the parts builder that I just need to add an inch back to the upper tower mounts and it'll be good to go. The...

Not my normal ranger content, but I did something bad and bought a Chevy. Needed something better for towing and this LBZ came across my lap and I had to get it.

Spent the afternoon chopping the front off. Video and pics below. Please consider letting the video run (even if you don't want to watch) to help it get more views for the Algorithm. Here are all the parts. Paul Horton's Welder Series K-member, and a Speedway Motors Mustang II IFS kit Set...

Hey everyone. The rear is finally done! You can skip to the 5:30 mark if you just want to see how it looks and see the comparison to how it used to sit. Time to tear apart the front end and drop it too!

WTB stall converter (4k+ RPM) for 11-14 GT/F-150. Prefer Circle D 5C but will entertain other options. For bone stock engine.

Only 6 months and a week later, the rear is finally (almost) done. Have about 30 minutes left of welding and reinstalling the coilovers, as well as the bed. Very excited to be past this hurdle and onto the next one. Up next is fully redoing the firewall forward.

Finally replaced the trailer I had stolen last year. Very excited for my new transport! 4 link is coming along slowly and video should be up within a few weeks.

New video is up! Cage is on hold while suspension is redone at the recommendation of the speed shop. I wanted to get the cage and turbo in to see how far we could go with the leaf springs, but I appreciate their advice and am doing the suspension first.

Hey everyone! New video will be up in the next day or so, but looking for some feedback in the meantime. Currently working on rear suspension and need to set the ride height so I can weld in the new 4 link. Front currently has no engine or trans, so it'll droop about an inch or two to bring the...

Mustang II front suspension and crossmember are on order and will be here first week of April (DANG YOU BACKORDERS!).

Just a quick update video. Roll cage has been ordered from S&W and will be here in about 3 weeks. This week I'm ordering the front suspension so hopefully it'll be here by the time the cage shows up. This video is just prepping the truck to take to the local rod shop for the cage and front end...

Hey everyone! New video is up. Day 1 of making this thing TURBOCHARGED. Removed the wiring harness and pulled the drivetrain to prep for it getting a cage installed and the front end redone. I have 9 weeks left of grad school so this won't be a quick phase of the project, but I will be posting...

Hey friends, quick update. Trailer still hasn't been found. Over the MLK weekend coming up, I'm going to start stripping the truck to prep it for a local rod shop to do a full cage and front end build. Once it is back in the garage, the turbo build will finally start! Spent quite a few weekends...

Not the update I wanted to post, but here it is anyway...hoping the cops find it before I drop the $$$ on a new one when I get these electrical issues sorted out.
