I was thinking about getting a ford ranger or an explorer and lowering it. I could beef up the motor if it was a 5.0 or put a 5.0 in the ranger. That way I could use low range 4x4 for short street races and that thing would launch hard as hell I'm sure. I saw the guys on Hot Rod TV do it with a dodge durango so I dn't see why I couldn't do it with an explorer.
any thoughts on this??

------------------
