    What's up guys, my name is Rich, I've been on a few forums before, decided I should check this place out.


    I drive an Blown 04 DSG XLT Ranger, got quite a bit of mods, but there's always something else to do. She likes to go fast.


    Looking forward to seeing you guys around here.

    Thanks, since that pic was taken the front license plate has been removed, it looks much cleaner now.
     
  10. Don't you absolutely have to have one if it's registered in Jersey? From what I heard they can give you a nasty fine for it...

    Yeah, legally you are suppose to have a front plate in the state of NJ. The fine starts at 40 dollars on the first offense, but can go up from there on subsequent violations.

    I'm not advocating breaking the law here, but I only have about a three minute ride on the back roads into work, so I don't worry about it very much. Also I do have the front plate on a magnet mount so if I do have to go far, to say a show or something, I can just stick it on for the ride.

    Yeah, it's only maybe 20 minutes from me, I cruise up there a lot in the summer time.
     
  14. Oh, alright. I know some friends that got hammered by it. But I can't blame you for taking it off lol

    Thanks for all the warm welcomes.


    Thanks, if I had to call it anything, I might call it a 3/4?

    She started life as a 4x4 and was semi-lifted on 33's, than came the supercharger and slew of go fast parts, she was pretty bad so I felt she needed to be grounded.

    Upfront the keys are flipped and out back the stock 8.8 was swapped for an expo one loaded with disc breaks, limited slip, 31 spline axles, and 3.73 gears. Since the expo 8.8 sits on top of the springs, it's basically like doing a flip kit. It can sit almost two inches lower in the back, I had to use longer shackles to lift it up so it would sit even with the front.
