I never fixed it so unfortunately I do not have much insight there.

Nope, everything just kind of bolted right on, it worked out really well! Thanks for watching!

It is just fun to do! This area is great, all the fun of the cities is only about an hour away but here its pretty rural and turns to fields of corn and sod pretty fast.

@suitandtiedye yeah definitely! I used to live in the city and have family just north of there a ways.

When I ordered the pinlock it actually came with an additional visor with the lock points already installed, the only thing needed is to adjust it a little bit to make it perfect, which I'm still getting the hang of! For the Qualifier Helmet I had to order mine from an awesome place in Italy named Burn Out Motor. I did not see any with tint on them though, they probably exist, but I had such a hard time finding one to start with I was just glad to get it at all! Thank you so much for watching!

I have the full over the head thing on and it does make a huge difference too!

Your not wrong, but it is so fun to be out riding I just cant stop!

@suitandtiedye I don’t blame you! I’ve ridden in the snow a few times. I like drifting in the snow.

Thank you so much for watching, I just dropped another video!

I definitely see one of those bikes in my future, and I am super excited for the muffs to show up I have hear they are really helpful. Thanks for checking the video out!

I totally agree! I put a mount on my helmet just the other day, and I am very excited to get some footage out while using it! Thanks for checking it out!

If you put #xr150l in the description of your video then you will be more likely to just reach Xr owners. Great video though! I’ll watch it a couple of times to help the algorithm send it to more people. That’s very cool that you’re in MN. I used to live in NE Minneapolis.

Dusty your an incredible person thank you so much man!

@@suitandtiedye you’re welcome! Thanks for the compliment! Glad to help. Your MN accent reminds me of being a kid living in NE Minneapolis.

Yes, what Dusty said. Also make sure you... Turn on key, wait 20 seconds, put on half choke, and press push start as well as cracking throttle just a bit. Should start right up, especially after tweaking the idle air screw. Then switch to no choke after 30 seconds or so . I went up 2 sizes on main jet as well. Mine is stock minus that. I have tried lots of different combos though. Check out the TUSK hand muffs for winter... $40. I'm about to get em.

@ those look rad! If only they were battery heated.

Those pieces in there are part of the limited slip clutch pack in the differential, about 20 slim discs make up the clutch pack and one of them broke, fortunately didn't get stuck in the spider gears or the whole rear end would likely be toast!

Awesome I really appreciate the feedback!

Yes it is! It hasn't been an issue for me but I have kept everything pretty simple, I did have to grind out my rims to make them fit as the explorer axle has a larger Center Bore than the Ranger does.

@@suitandtiedye thanks for the reply. I’ll keep that in mind.

Haha you got me! Would have*

The 98 Explorer Axle I used does indeed have disc brakes for its standard brakes, but is uses a drum brake set-up for the parking brake, pretty weird to me to!

Sorry, I see my mistake now. I mistook the parking brake for the older drum brake.

The shock I used is actually the same I would of used if I hadn't swapped the axle out, Monro-Matic Plus 32235 is the part it looks like!

@@suitandtiedye the 32235 only has a 4.75" stroke and a S4 type mount on one end. The rear needs a shock with two L1 mounts.

I have yet to solve that problem! I am actually going to be working on the Ranger this weekend, I will make that a priority right after I get the passenger door to shut properly again haha! Thanks for checking the video out! I will try to let you know when I have a solution for the parking brakes other than leaving it in gear all the time.

@@suitandtiedye The operation of the stick fird setup was a mystery to me fir some time. When I finally figured out how it works, I discovered that the Explorer RR ebrake cable was too short to simply swap clip hardware and connect to my Ranger ebrake cable. I solved it, but I'm not proud of my solution (looks janky).

It is crazy man! I am psyched to get some work done on there, hopefully I should be less covered in dirt from laying on the ground while doing stuff! My only nice shirt is my Uncivil one now haha

Thank you that means a lot!

Thank you! It has been a lot of learning but a lot of fun!

What’s so funny

I really appreciate the feedback! I took the box off the truck tonight and will pick up an air hammer tomorrow before tackling more of the rust, and hopefully get some better results!

@@suitandtiedye It knocks off the rust much quicker, especially if you use a strong rubber band to keep tension, then you don't have to push to get maximum result. There are videos on it. Really works fantastic. I look forward to another video. :)

Removing the bed is a great idea, I feel dumb that I haven't thought of that already! Looks like a few bolts, move the electrical stuff away from the taillights and disconnect the fuel filler tube, if I end up doing it I will put a video up with any issues or advice I might come up with!

Hey how well does this rust converter work 😊😅 I have a 99 ford ranger frame has surface rust but how well does this work 🤔 is this better than sanding the rust off?
