Take into consideration this is all going on a Ranger. The rear will be cut behind the cab and new rails will be added. I was going to keep the factory frame rails but have since decided against it. I would like to get a 36" bar if possible. I am not wirried about location of muffs and such as all that will be routed around the rear as needed. I am also using the 9" rear out of a 75 lincoln because it is equipped with factory disc's. I will have it narrowed and be running Strange or Moser axles.

This IS NOT a drag truck. Just something to drive on the street mainly and take to the track occ. I want to have fun building and driving this truck. I'm not in a hurry so I am bascially doing a ground up like you Rustang. It will be equipped with an 8 point cage from CAchassisworks, and further modified and added to for bracing of the bed and rear clip. I bascally stripping everything factory off and replacing it all. the wiring for the lights, turn signals, wipers, and body will only remain factory. I am adding tubbs and a roll pan to the bed but other than that stock.

The interior will retain the stock dash with guages replaced using Autometer Ultralites. I am also using the seats out of my Mustang for this project.
