did some cheap work on the cage
My truck has the cheapest gray steel wheels that you could get on it, so I figured since they were getting a little rough and crusty, I'd upgrade them on the cheap. I think I spent roughly 20 dollars, and I think they came out alright. I could have done better on a few spots if I had more time and really cared, but I think they came out pretty slick for 20 bucks and doing most of the work in the dark.

Gotta love a simple Ranger. My dad had a standard cab 4 cylinder and I had 2 friends in the cab, a quad in the bed and a 3 bike trailer with 2 dirtbikes on it. Bullet proof vehicles!!

I'm a powder coating fan. Still, looks pretty good.
Heck, I touch up painted my old F150 4x4 with white spray paint. lol I was not about to spend good money on an expensive paint job for a beat up truck.

Looks good. I had steelies with hubcaps on my taco, decided to go the semi-fancy route and picked up a set of 18" black steelies off a 300c to replace my 14s. I'll get some pics.
