I'm heading to my buddys shop tomorrow afternoon (hopefully before the snow hits) to see if I can get an impact to knock it loose. Been sprayin with pb blaster since yesterday evening

The guy who I bought it from (off of craigslist) never told me the year it came off of, he just told me that the plugs would work. Mailed to me and I found out that the plugs were wrong.

I was surprised that the connectors were different as well, I believe it came out of a +04 Ranger. I'll post up a front picture, and I know the plugs are different, triple checked them man. Let me upload from my phone and I'll show ya guys *edit: I know for sure the plugs are different because...

Its mid 30s here with a Winter Storm Watch...they're sayin anywhere from 6-10 inches of snow here by tomorrow night / monday morning

If I do that man I'm gonna snap the stud. Almost bent my breaker bar. I need someone with air tools to try and slowly break it loose. I'm hoping that the night soaking in pb blaster helped some at least lol. I'm not really lookin to snap any studs off this time around, we are supposed to get...

Thanks Brinker, I'll probably be looking for a new rear end soon. Right now I'm dealing with 2 very stubborn lug nuts that won't break loose. Sprayed them with PB blaster and still no luck. Any ideas anyone?

Could be a bad ground somewhere maybe. Check your battery connections and your connections on your alternator

Thanks man, its been through hell and back and still kickin. Almost has 200k on it!

eventually lol, i don't have the $ right now. my main concern is keeping it running and just doing small things along the way

No it doesnt, it only has the 4x4 switch

Well Im thinkin of doin the powerdome hood swap, I want to build / find a center console to fit in between the seats, since I don't have arm rests right now. Rear axle swap, then eventually either build up the engine i have now or do a swap in the future

As some of you may know from reading my build thread, my ranger has been broken into twice. First time my insurance covered all repairs, and scheduled when to get it fixed. The second time my insurance only cut me a check which hardly covered anything. I had to buy a radio bezel which fit but...

No clue, perhaps a burr on your old bolt or somehow it crossthreaded a little and didnt go all the way in? Who knows, at least you got it fixed!

Looks sweet man! I used to have a doubledin touchscreen dvd player like you, but after getting 2 of them ripped out of the dash and stolen I've given up. Now I have no radio bezel and no passenger door lock lol! F'n thieves

Thanks for the info, guess I really need to research a lot more...just don't have the time unfortunately

Check you are getting fuel pressure at the rail (prime the fuel pump twice, make sure the truck is off, then check the schraeder valve on the fuel rail, if you get a squirt you have pressure). Sounds like you're not getting any fuel. Does it crank or is it completely dead? Any sputtering?

Thanks for the comments guys. Thinkin of doin a hood swap, to the newer style hoods, will it work with a 98 front end? I havent seen a newer ranger in person in awhile so I can't remember exactly how the hood sits on the grill And if anyone has any pics of what the older grill + newer hood look...

Thanks for your service. I just got out of the Air Force in October, I was in for 8.5 years - aircraft mechanic.

Here are the earliest pictures of my truck back when I got it in '04, all stock - 42k miles And here's how it sits now
