Try a rod to "pry" up on the bottom track of the window. That might release enough tension to get it out. Try Mustang or Lincoln speakers. The rear of them are fully enclosed to keep out moisture and improve sound.

I appreciate your advice, but I have been running oversize tires on Rangers for almost 10 years. I swap them back and forth from summer to winter. Absolutely no issues in over 80,000 miles. The speed difference is 5% which isn't anything to worry about. At 60mph it's off by 3mph. The factory...

I have thought about the climate control..maybe later OHC is unneeded for me. I put one in my first Ranger. This time I went for the do it all mirror. Mirror has compass, temperature, auto dimming and a backup cam. I think it is a much cleaner look. Not to mention a whole lot easier to install...

Well, not sure what you mean by all electronics, but here is a list of my mods so far 2010 Scion/Pioneer radio with usb/mp3 inputs 2011 Explorer 10inch antenna mounted on Ranger fender base dual layer visors with Homelink and twin lighted mirrors. Aviator wheel with cruise buttons. Cruise...

If I recall correctly, the main difference in the Ford window motors is the drive gear size.

I used whatever old bolts I found in the bolt bucket. Since I did that first truck, I went fancy and got a riveter that does 3/16 and 1/4 rivets. Air operated even. I don't see any need for special bolts.

Well, the Ford manual says you gotta pull it as a unit. I really think you can squeeze the motor out on it's own. If you do pull the whole unit, and it's a factory original installation, use a drift pin to drive out the center of the rivets before you drill. it makes it a whole lot easier...

Explorer motor may work, motors bolt on with 3 bolts to the regulator. 10mm heads if I remember. I used Windstar motors in my first Ranger. The later regulators have a spring on them to assist in raising the glass. It should not be an issue. You should be able to pull the motor and leave the...

I have an 03 with a 3.0 5speed in it. I put new Motorcraft wires, plugs, electric fan from an HHR. Also 120 amp alternator, new timing chain and intake gasket, Fram washable air filter. I installed a new Motorcraft coil for a 2007 3.0. It has higher voltage so I opened the gap up to 52 instead...

I really wanted about 1/2 the vertical bars spaced wider apart and a bit larger bars. Lincolns all have the vertical bars in the grills not horizontal. I could not find anything reasonably priced that would fit without major reconstruction. The billet grill that I settled for is a good...

SLC is my first choice. I also thought about Missing Linc-oln.

I will move the spare to the bed. Every little bit helps.

That's a thought! Avoids the PITA tire winch also. Not to be confused with a tire wrench, or tired wench for that matter.

Yes, but if I get a flat, I will have to walk:cry:

Did you see page 1 of the pix? Lincoln grill emblem on a vertical bar grill (same as Lincolns), Lincoln wheel centers, Lincoln steering wheel, almost every possible option Ranger had and quite a few they didn't. I am going for a Lincoln clone. A mini LT if you will. I just got some Lincoln LSC...

Thanks, I got the idea from a new Nissan or Toyota SUV that has it as an option. I had them mounted to the Ranger tracks, but they didn't fit right. I put them back on the Windstar tracks and custom made the mounts to the floor. It was much easier. Next is to pull it all out, paint the mounts...

Thank you.

Metallic black is one of the colors on my short list. Possible other choices are choc brown metallic or deep burgundy metallic. I am seriously considering chrome bumpers. I do plan on chrome mirror covers, but I want the oem design that replaces the paintable covers.
