20:54 great show! I'm calling to get my "VHS copy" today!!! :)
If you find out where to get this season, let me know. Unless it's VHS of course.
Man I watched this guy since highschool back.in 05 and up watchin now wish I woulda kept doin this
Idk why but this is so entertaining to watch.
This guy makes learning and fab/building fun! Awesome video, no school like the old school.
You are an absolute legend sir. I remember watching you on TNN back in the early 2000s. And I ordered some of the vhs at one point.
I LOVE IT!!!!! I NEED TO BUILD A PRE RUNNER!!!!! SO MUCH FUN!!!!!! Thank you Fabteck for all of your hard work as well.
8:08 goodbye blue paint
man how offroad technology and knowledge has changed in the past 15 years...
What would be different to this?
@@MrAwesomemonster new trucks don’t use I beams
@@gaelurbina4614 Which ones?
@@cullennowell7813 many off-road race trucks still use radious arms..even eye beams..I've been building race trucks n cars for 20 yrs and still doing it..I also just raced the Norra 500.. racing in Parker AZ and the Baja 1000 coming up in
I add
I always loved watching this show growing up
You make it look so easy..I had always admired your presentation skills
I absolutely agree. I'm sure if I was to do something similar it would take so long, and I'd be cursing the whole time I was working on it.
Please...
Keep Making Videos.
They Are Amazing.🤠👍
Love this guy
You can’t go wrong with stacey
You love a man named Stacey...
@@DJInclined yea anything wrong with that? You judging?
I liked him on PowerBlock. GEARS just has way to many Commercials and not enough actual Building.
Wack
They say the Ford F 150 is the best selling truck ever , but my eyes tell me that the Ranger is the most reliable . Everywhere you go you will see way more old Rangers than old anything else .
You're so right my friend. I bought a brand new Ranger Edge extended cab back in 2003 and I still have it. Never had any problems with it just the regular maintance,batteries and tires. Great truck!!!
We bought 2 , 96 ranger's put 6 inch lift , cut body etc... eventually put on 40 inch tires ! We've changed a few axles, driveshaft 's and motors . But we still muddin !!!
This is like a 80's TV show 👌😎👏👏👏but in 2020...
its like a 2002ish show.
This was from the late 90’s. Watched this series on Power Block in high school!
I tell ya, Ford should have never ditched the I beam set up. Especially on their 4wd trucks.
People want a bit of comfort in their ride. I've been in those old I beam trucks. Agricultural is the best way to describe them. I'll keep my ifs for a daily driver.
I used to have a 95 b2300 and you wouldn't even notice running over a curb
The 2wd super duty trucks still have the i beam set up.
My old ttb prerunner that now my brother owns was a beast! “Have videos on it on my channel from years ago” It was a sand cadi. Ran so smooth with my 2.0 radflo coil overs up front and 2.5 triple bypass radflo’s in the rear. But nothing is worse than the torsion bars they went with on the rangers and f150’s... Those rode like shit... The most uncomfortable ride quality ever in a truck. I rather take a ttb truck any day of the week over a torsion bar ifs. Especially if you plan on playing in the dirt with it and not make it a mall crawler or a pavement pounder.
The still use them on 3/4 and 1 ton Superduty 2WD.
Stacy David. The master of the achey-breakey mistakey.
Best comment EVER 🤣
stacy dude this is a awesome build im defiantly useing this vid as a guide for my ranger prerunner it will be like yours exept it is a more trophy truck rear suspention mixed with a sandrail truck build with fiberglass hood, front fenders and grill with a custome made/built engine led lights and more for a street "legal" prerunner all on 35" tires.
Groetjes uit Holland 👋🏼👋🏼
This channel sounds interesting. Subbed.
I'd like to see y'all continue this build.
I just bought a ranger its my first truck super excited
Take good care of it and it’ll never let you down. I own two and they’re both awesome trucks.
We have that exact same truck. same color and all. So excited to build it up. Going to be a breeze!!!
i got the same exact truck too lol
@@turboglokthicboi1510 hell yea. Fwm on ig @soulriders_ua
I love this but will stock spindles be strong enough? I was just curious they might bend but I absolutely love the build
Must be nice everything is clean and preloosened to the point the impact doesn't even hammer when removing the ubolt nuts
Miss this show. Horsepower tv. Fuck yeah
I'm receiving a mint 2003 f150 2wd lariat extended cab this week. 78k on the clock. I'm doing the 3.5 spindle lift with 265/70r17 MT Baja Boss with Ultra 17x9 polished. My 03 Mach1 is the low to the ground 5speed. Can't wait to build my participation trophy truck😅 ps sold back my 2022 Maverick to get the f150.
It would be nice if we had that clean of vehicles around here. It is hard to find a vehicle that old around here that isn't completely rusted out.
Come to the south
Dude is the Uncle I always wanted :(
Everything is easy for you when you have all the tools ,lift and garage that you have
where can I find a kit like this
Looks like time to have UPGRADED the brakes.
They look like SN-95 Mustang GT brakes stock? If so, 2 piston Cobra brakes would be a bolt in swap. Cheap and very available and no spindle change.
@@fishsquishguy1833 can anyone confirm that this would work?
Anyone know if there's a DVD set for this season?
This is awesome, to bad Fabtech doesn't have or produce these parts anymore.
I am looking for a long travel setup for my 99 ford ranger. Any suggestion. I been looking at custom offset but idk because I wanna make it look like a trophy truck
Where can I find this lift?
🔥🔥
I wish this guy was my neighbor.
But he is nuts though; I wouldn't go any higher than 3 inches on an old Ranger.
Ya especially for a pre runner
Cool 😎 truck Stacey and American also (red ,white and blue
Ranger Danger!
Does anyone know where to get the kit he is using?
I’ve got an ‘05 Ranger XLT 5-Speed manual 4x4 as my daily and a 2000 XLT 4x4 auto as my trail toy, but now I want a 2wd to make a prerunner. Would’ve bought my buddy’s if I knew he was selling it.
You can still do a 4x4 prerunner but You’ll have to add a good amount of extra weight in the rear to offset the front diff, front axles, and transfer case, but the benefits of a 4x4 prerunner is u can go more places if wanted.
Look at the btf fab 4x4 long travel kit, it’s so sick and you have more travel than a 2wd.
Would this suspension also work on a 93 ranger
how come no update on this truck?
Does anybody know where I can find this fabtech kit?
The radius arm would be better with a ball joint bushing
I think I want to do this to my '47 Ford Pickup. though with more travel in the front with double shocks.
Not with the factory frame
Parking Brake!!!!!!! The owners manual, all owners manuals call them parking brakes. If you even remember to use them in an emergency, you're already screwed
FORD RANGER
No limit straps
Oh shit I forget about this build.
i noticed you like the alloys
I’m assuming fabtech discontinued the 5.5 in. Lift ? Can’t seem to find it anywhere anymore
I've looked about every where myself and I can't find it either
Did they take it off the website I can’t find it anywhere
Wish I could find this suspension lift.
14:54 listen as he smacks his wedding ring down on that 20k paint job.....
Where is part 3?
where can I get that suspenssion kit ? part umber please
Where’s the link to the lift kit? Very interested
1/4 de milla, 4X4, o NASCAR, los güeritos no conocen de otra. 😂
Filmed in the 90s and aired in 2000's
Is there a lift kit that can fit in a 88 Ranger like that
How much wheel travel with this kit
Honestly the Raptor should have been a factory option for these, but like the FX II on steroids complete with factory 35's and a disclaimer. Ford is great for goin to work , but they dont seem to like to party too much🎉
Damn Stacey...is that a wrench in your pocket or are you just happy to see us?
Never seen a brakeline zip tied to a coil spring.
What is the kit called
I can’t find those 5.5 in leafs
Did he ever do anything to replace that cross brace that he took out to put the Radius arms in?
You dont need it! It's just there for the stock radius arms!
@@dred5375 I'm not sure that why its there entirely...doesn't it create a 90 degree brace and hold the frame true? Structural rigity?
@@leomonster1973 there is still the transmission crossmember right behind it. In not 100% sure but if you need it, I'm sure there is a company that makes one just for this application. I'm more familiar with the 4x4 ttb!
Back when people thought dome shaped hubcaps were cool
We still do
Welds for life !
@@thecatch4884 old stuff? Yeah sure. Anything made in the past 30 years? Nope
@@reaganriddle i have a set of 16x12s on all my trucks I prefer those over anything new.
Holy Bumpsteer, Batman!!
I have a 2002 ranger xlt, it has lower and upper control arms, no I beams, is this even worth doing to my truck? And is it even possible to get a wider wheel gap without spacerS?
Totally dude! You will have to get a long travel kit, camburg sells a good one, there r more ifs prerunners than I beam ones, I would NOT at all recommend wheel spacers on a prerunner, just a recipe for disaster. I will say though if u r considering building one, be prepared for the major price tag, it ain’t cheap, but it’s worth it!
@@Daniel-qw7rx Hell yeah man thanks for the advice
@@jjnicnic6098 look at btf fab there kits are cool to widens the truck by 8 inches I think
Should have done a coilover conversion, also lifting a truck doesn’t mean it’s a prerunner 😂
I agree, but I feel like this is a good weekend warrior, maybe a small SMALL jump here and there, just for funzies
Previous installment says season 4 episode 7, This one says season 2 episode 8. Which season is it???
Just pay attention to part #
Looking for an 8 inch lift
looking for this kit can anyone get the link ??
Fabtech has not made this kit for almost 20 years. Only way to find it is used.
Is this kit still available?
No I wish
Everything is good until you need Les Schwab to align
They won't touch it unless they did it
Where can I get that exact same lift
I believe that company is out of business.
Fabtech is definitely still in business. That kit doesn't seem to be in their catalog anymore.
Look on the fab tech website
@@simoncorriere8209 You can't find it there bub, if you have then please share it!
@@samh.6788 ya it looks like they discontinued the beam kit
They don’t make these lifts nomore 😢
The so called steering wheel on the ranchero is awful. That would be a pain on the ass trying to spin around quick if you had to. Get your finger caught in it if the wheel gets jerked to one side and its gonna break something.
I looked for those body panels on their site and they don’t exist
Never did post the driving video of this thing.💔
Did anyone else notice at 14:05 the wheel on the right side of the screen is chambered in,
I dont know if that's bad or not?
It’s because of the I beams have so much travel
Post more parts

Why isn't he upgrading to larger rotors to stop the bigger tires
69 camaro..? Where... either a 71 torino/ranchero.... i got questions
He was talking about the guy who lost. Hence him having the pink slip
i so wish i could turn my ranger into a street legal prerunner
U should just go for it!
@@Daniel-qw7rx if I had the money I would have
I wonder what happened to this truck
did anyone ever buy the 12.95$ videos after the show was finished it's weekly episode?? go on. be honest. there will be no judgement.
But is that ranger a two wheel drive?
Did he call that Ranchero a 69 Camaro at the beginning?
No, He meant he raced a 69 Camaro for pinks and won and was gonna sell the car.
Chrome don’t get ya home
I have to tell you at frist I thought that truck little Ranger was going to look stupid, but WOW was I WRONG
It looks great with that lift. Hope it works as good as it looks..!!!!!
Hopefully he does something about that anchor under the hood. First truck I had was an 01 Ranger with the 3.0L v6. It wasn't particularly fast.
@@bmstylee i had a 97 with a 3.0, after putting in a different set of rear gears in it, it would get up and scoot
@@lililililiilililililil9828 true. I had one works a 4.0 and 4.11 gears. That thing was pretty quick.
@@bmstylee i went with 4.55 gears from yukon gear, and with 35s under that lil Danger Ranger it scooted and booted lol
I had a 2000 explorer w the 4.0 and 4:11s it was pretty peppy for not being a 5.0
How did this guy become this guy?
FORDFUCKINRANNGGEERRRR!!!
8:37
I know this truck , FORD FUCKING RANGER
I’m running 31in. Stock on my ranger no lift. No cutting
You can clear 32s on stock height 2wd even with some offset.
man, what happened to fabtech
