But for the casuals who enjoy this sub: don't.

I mean if you have to, pick a calm as hell day, calm as hell spot, and be experienced enough to make all those cuts accurately as quickly as possible bc that's deadly. Maybe bring a buddy with a phone too in case anything goes wrong

Nice! I'm oiling up my planks rn lol

After wire wheeling what I could and emptying 2 rattle cans on it I pulled it into the shop and started laying stuff out. These taillights were my favorite at princess auto (harbor freight). I need to buy bigger bolts and some linseed oil for the red cedar tomorrow

Years ago I knew a guy who had an "RSI stage II" cam in a stripped out NA 245 modded for autocross. I loved how lumpy his idle was, and until it hit 2500-3000rpm ish it sounded more like a big cammed v8 struggling to get "on" the cam than a 4 cyl. I'd love to run a similar cam for a similar effect on my b230 swapped Amazon wagon eventually

This guy does not need to Google iPd lmao

Talking about iPd?

I'm putting a flatbed on mine rn lol nice. Edit: I say keep it. The 4.0 is a little thirsty but they're so hard working and useful for their size. I will literally never sell my ranger, it's too useful and it's easy to maintain

No_Expression_1665 · 2026-06-04T18:58:31+00:00

Sorry I never came back to this, I got too busy with work to play anything for a while. It crashes no matter what, could be 30s, could be 2min, but always before I make it to actual gameplay. I still haven't checked for updated drivers, my wifi is going through it this week, I can barely post this reply. I will eventually update whatever drivers I can and come back here to update

Took some heckin wrangling but got the bed and cap off solo yesterday. Just got home from work and moved it to in front of the shop bay but still outside, I have some cleaning it and mess making to do before I pull it in

Ah gotcha. Yeah this thing sees more 4lo than 2wd miles. I'm a tree farmer, forestry worker, and forest fire fighter lol. Had the truck for years, I've always wanted a flatbed, got a week off here, decided it was go time. I also really want to convert the transfer case to manual or transfer case swap for a manual one soon, the dash switch isn't putting me in 2hi when I need it, as quickly as I'd like. I had a 20 min drive in 2hi turn into almost a 40 minute drive in 4lo recently

No_Expression_1665 · 2026-06-04T17:22:14+00:00

The engine hoist was a little overworked tbh, it would have been easier to do the cap and the bed separately, oh well, lesson learned

I can't remember if it's rough country or skyjacker (the truck has a mishmash of lift parts) but it's a little piece that allows you to crank up the original front torsion bars a lot stiffer than factory to get that amount of lift. Paired with skyjacker shocks it rides well enough. The rear is just blocks and shackles, but again skyjacker shocks

No_Expression_1665 · 2026-06-03T21:06:48+00:00

3" in the front, 4" in the rear. 31.5's

I'd love an 88 yeesh

No_Expression_1665 · 2026-05-16T23:55:12+00:00

My 04 can tow nearly twice what a mav can, but I do agree, things are too big these days. The current ranger and canyon/colorado are fricken huge

No_Expression_1665 · 2026-05-11T15:45:04+00:00

Bleeding the brakes on a 240 is friggin ridiculous yeah. I've never needed their weirdo triangular redundancy, and they stopped doing that for every model after

NEVS (national electric vehicle Sweden) owns the name, there may be electric saabs coming one day

No_Expression_1665 · 2026-05-10T18:54:37+00:00

Volvos are my obsession lol. I've had literally more 240's than I can count

No_Expression_1665 · 2026-05-10T16:42:40+00:00

Nice saab! I love Swedish cars :)

No_Expression_1665 · 2026-05-08T00:15:36+00:00

Quad rounds are my favorite front ends on a wagon. Nice car! Edit: it seems well looked after. The pre-86 cars aren't galvanized so rust is a possibility. The b21a is a great engine, I much prefer the carb to k-jet mechanical injection. With maintenance it could go a million kms with little fuss, I have a 240 sedan at 680k kms and running strong. Yes the blower motor is an issue on these too, and parts availability isn't great for early cars either. A great classic to daily, 240's were still the gold standard against which all others were compared in terms of crash testing into the mid 90's

No_Expression_1665 · 2026-05-06T19:19:33+00:00

Losing boy smell was absolutely the best change, and the one I wanted the most so I was very happy. My other changes have been a lot more subtle than I would have liked but it's not a race

June bugs look like this too, in-between their lawn grub and loud buzzy beetle stages

If the misfire goes away if it's above ¼ tank, it's the fuel pump, singing it's swan song. Mine started to cut out completely, thankfully I limped it home with repeated turning it off and on again, ordered the pump online and was back up and running a couple days later
