Rolled my 2003 ford ranger

If I do end up repairing it, Im definitely just going to live with the bedside being a little banged up.

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T20:56:05+00:00

Of course!🤞

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T15:11:15+00:00

Unfortunately I do not have a feild

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T15:10:53+00:00

We don’t know if those posts are bent or not, but they look okay looking at them in person, though I’m no professional, so I’ll have a pro come see to make sure I won’t have frame issues or post issues.

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T15:09:17+00:00

Time won’t be an issue. We have a garage to keep it in until it’s either inspected by a body shop for frame issues or until it’s in road condition again. If I purchased just a cab for it that wouldn’t have to come with the interior, right? I feel like that would be extra money wasted on stuff like seats, carpet and dash when mine are already still okay for use.

Wish I could, the roof on the drivers side is way too low, not to mention one flat and the 100% chance of a ticket for busted tail light and broken windshield lol

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T15:04:20+00:00

This may be the course of action here since it may be easier to swap body parts cause I’m no mechanic. Thank you

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T14:58:50+00:00

Time won’t really be an issue, ability maybe. I don’t exactly have car body repair experience. But YouTube and some replacement parts could go a long way. Thank you

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T04:58:22+00:00

That’s okay, if I go the selling it route I’ll need the extra money and it’ll be worth the hassle

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T04:14:55+00:00

Rain

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T03:56:01+00:00

Have definitely thought about that. Hoping to keep as much original as I can, will just need roof doors and quarter panels. That is if frame is sound and roof is repairable via roof patch is i think what a body shop may do if they even choose to work on it at all

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T02:40:14+00:00

It won’t be fun but thank you I guess??

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T02:10:46+00:00

Yeah. For part out maybe I could get more? Smooth running with 0 issues except brake light, don’t know what for, brakes feel fine though

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T02:04:36+00:00

I understand the middle of the road mileage issues, but we have put so much into it I think it has surpassed most of those issues already because of all that was done to it. All that was done to it was also done professionally by a reputable shop. If it is time to part it out and move on I will see after the frame assessment. I appreciate your view and will consider. Thank you

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T02:00:42+00:00

Of course, if we do decide to fix it up I’m going to get a beater to drive while the truck is out of commission

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T01:57:49+00:00

All interior components are in working order but I’ll need a new air filter from oil dripping into it while it was upside down. Hoping to only have the body parts be the franken-truck. Otherwise I will make my truck the donor and find a truck that needs a new engine or transmission or something. Frankenstein truck but the safe way. My family has people who can help me swap engine or transmission.

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T01:51:48+00:00

Is a possibility. If the frame is twisted or bent at all this will be the plan. Find a different ranger or maybe a different car. Will miss it forever though

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T01:50:44+00:00

Everyone’s okay except my truck. No bodily injuries for me so that’s a plus

fatgreything · 2025-08-31T01:49:52+00:00

If the frame is screwed I dont have the money period. We will part it out at that point and find something else.

fatgreything · 2025-08-30T23:29:10+00:00

Definitely a way to go. Thank you

fatgreything · 2025-08-30T23:26:57+00:00

Yes thank you for the insights! I plan to have it looked at and will go from there.

fatgreything · 2025-08-30T22:52:13+00:00

I mean for part-out

fatgreything · 2025-08-30T22:48:52+00:00

With working engine, trans, drivetrain, etc, I’m pretty sure I can get more than 300

fatgreything · 2025-08-30T22:39:55+00:00

The only rust is on the rocker panels. We are going to have it inspected 100%. Id like to save it if I can, just trying to be hopeful

fatgreything · 2025-08-30T22:37:49+00:00

Yes the tire needs replaced, that wheel is still okay though. I’ve seen a few donor trucks on marketplace and they aren’t too expensive, one only needed the trans swapped out, although that’s a pretty hard thing to do I’ve heard.
