Carnage thread

Discussion in 'Ranger Media' started by Redneck_ranger, Apr 23, 2012.

  1. Alright, so I searched and didn't find one anywhere. I was wondering what everyone else went and did (or someone else did) to their truck(s). No, it doesn't absolutely HAVE to be a Ranger (unless the mods say otherwise). So let's see some pics of your damages!

    I'll start out, not the Ranger, but another close truck to me.

    Luckily no wrecks for me. But plenty of the other sort of carnage... The following is a small portion. lol.






    First day after working the kinks out on a brand spankin' new engine + grabby arse clutch + locker + traction bars + grabby tires = Tcase housing split + trans mainshaft twist. Thank you shock load!!

    Flange bolts behind last cat backed off resulting in pipe scraping the highway at 75. Roadside Assistant and roadside jimmyrigger I am! lol.

    What should have been a super simple disc brake conversion (to the tune of $100 total) turned into a $700 over budget affair consisting of a new differential and bonus selectable locker. What happened was the crosspin retaining bolt broke inside the carrier. Cutting was the only option.

    Did you hit the hole at 30 mph? Because that's really the only way you are going to suck up that much water unless it's deeper than your hood? But it doesn't seem to be that way.

    didnt have pics of the first time. but first time when i first got my ranger, had it exactly one week and it was side swipped in front of house. new tail, and my friend buffing out the the marks, only has a small dent under tail light.

    second oct. on poorly lite road, backing up into a parking space, a lady in a black focus instead of stopping zips on pass me with no lights on nothing at 4am, right rear conrer tagged her left rear doors. her fault.

    3rd it was 430 last august, heading home from gfs house. on a 2 lane highway, no street lights, a dump truck riding my ass, right after the guard rail ended, a dog ran out in the middle of the road, i had no time to react and sadly hit him at 45mph. did bout 1500 in damages. i had pics of this but my phone died and i lost those.

    Maybe but idk.... open filter is pretty damn open to the elements without a valence. But maybe this is a hint...

    [​IMG]


    My K&N filter actually collapsed and twisted. I did not hit the hole as hard as pictured above. Apparently I can take pics of others rides, yet other folks can't take pics worth a damn of mine. lol. You can tell below I got crazy...
