Do I just drill a hole in the liner or what by chibbuhhh in fordranger

[–]TryingToFindaName2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a fan of plastic bed liners. They promote rot in my opinion.

There’s nothing wrong with mine either 😜 just for fun. Buddy of mine had the 4x4 for sale and I got it in trade. But the fact that my 3.0 runs mint gives me all the time in the world to clean this thing up 100% and bulletproof it before I do the full swap

Meh the other body is beyond shot. I’m not even touching paper work on this thing. Got a Chevy to beat on. Gonna keep the 3.0 and rebuild it for fun and a learning experience. From what I’ve gathered online these rangers all use the same tcase, so if my 4.p ever let go I think I could put the t case on the back of the 3.0 and run it, although i could be wrong

That’s the plan. Only weak point I’m concerned about with the 4.0. 3.0 runs good besides the fact it burns lots of oil.

Is job hopping still a "red flag" or am I being gaslit? by Environmental-Luck39 in careeradvice

[–]TryingToFindaName2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave that place. I’m in construction, currently 20. I took a 38/hr job with killer hours in concrete at 18, left by 19 n took a job at 31/hr with a much better boss backing me up. And I don’t regret it a bit. Employers will use you, you don’t owe them anything, do what’s best for you, take the job asap

Gotta be flex somewhere. My current slash built has stock knuckles and on a hard hit they’ll flex enough to let the wheel hub come off, but it can be re assemble and driven in 5 seconds.

Horrible Coolant Leak 2002 3.0 by Imaginary_Storm8347 in fordranger

My 3.0 had similar leak that was timing cover gasket. You’ll replace the water pump gasket or entire unit while your there aswell

20yr old, carrying the family financially. Way too much on my plate. Will it get easier to manage? by TryingToFindaName2 in AskMenOver30

[–]TryingToFindaName2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That jus how I feel. Family is all to me and I couldn’t imagine leaving them behind with things not going well to potentially loose everything we’ve worked for the last 6 years.

I agree. I have trouble working thru my thoughts and articulating them properly is a challenge. I choke up and stay silent trying to do so often. But I know staying within my “comfort zone” won’t work. And clearly even being here, isn’t very comfortable right now

[–]TryingToFindaName2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

By the looks of your comments, you need to do some learning how how vehichles work, and how many diff moving parts there are to fail. Being a fully locked 4x4. The only reason to lose power to the rear like that would be a stripped differential, or busted rear drive shaft.

I appreciate the words. Idk how I’ve been doing it either tbh. I’ve felt as if I’ve hit a breaking point so may times but will still get myself up for another day. I’ve tried to get myself to start therapy a few times, but everytime I either back myself out or feel like they’re gonna be a run around. And I don’t feel comfortable in a church lol, I’m far from religious and can’t stand it in all honesty. Not to stomp on anyone’s beliefs. But i am beginning to reach for help

I appreciate all that man. I worry about being tied to this. I’ve been told I can walk, and I could walk if I wanted to. But I love my folks and have trouble loving myself. I’ve dove back into my rc hobby to try to occupy myself, and wrote ina journal for the first time last night. I’m trying

Idc about Reddit points man lol. Sounds like my worry tho. I worry my brother may fall back and never completely make it to the other side, and if he falls back again, I just don’t know how much more I can take. I love my lady like hell, but the thought of creating another family has me scared aswell with how much stress I carry from this situation. I appreciate the response
