new rig!

[walshie1000]

Got myself a new ride yesterday. 2011 ford ranger pk with a few extras. Can't wait to give it a test run in the bush on Sunday. Stoked to find one that has never been used for work purposes and its never been offroad.

Schmick looking chariot there Walshie, may it serve you well.

 

[Redfin]

Good looking ride there mate, let the mods begin.

 

[silver]

At least all the scratches it ever gets will be yours from being out hitting the gold Walshie.

Nice looking rig m8, let me know how it goes as I'm thinking of getting one myself in the coming year or so.

 

[backcreek]

Not a Ford man myself but not a bad looking ute.
As Redfin says, let the mods begin.
This is a previous post, quite big but I'm sure you'll get some ideas.

Cheers fellas. Yeah I quite like the look of it myself. Probably won't do any mods, not gonna be doing any serious 4wd'ing. Might need to stiffen up the ass end to carry all the gold and all keanos detectors haha.
I slapped a kicker l7 in the back for anyone whose familiar with those. Now its just happy cruising I hope.

 

[walshie1000]

Actually! I might stick a nudge bar and light bar on the front to try and fry the kangaroos retinas before they jump in front if me.

I like the young lass that presents the Ford Ranger adds - If only i was 40 yrs younger........mmmmm

 

[TheSilentBugler]

I'm hearing you Mr emoticon.

 

[SCROUNGER]

I'm with you Jaros, sweeet.

 

[Jaros]

I neeeeeeeed to see more as it beats taking blood pressure tabs.

 

[dwt]

Pimp the crap out of it Walshie

 

[Solid Luck]

Nice wheels walshie.
Now get it out there and get some mud on it...lol

 

[walshie1000]

Took her out for a quick test run today. I can't believe how much mud was on it after 5 mins of 4wd drifts and a few little climbs. If I was in the bt-50 I'd still be in there bogged haha

 

[Keano]

It's a shame we're not going to get out there tomorrow mate to really test it out..let's hope for next weekend.. I'm tipping you may need to loose those slicks and put on some mud slingers on. Otherwise you might find yourself hooked up to the other ranger way to often.. Then you'll have some mud on ya!

Forget the nudge bar, get a roo bar, this is not a Ranger, but it's the result of a Roo strike on a Nudge bar

 

[walshie1000]

Pricks of things they are. Yeah the nudge bar would be more for in the bush to push those little trees out the way instead of my front bar.
Something like this you reckon?

 

[condor22]

No more like this lol,

A nudge bar for mine is $600+, the Ironman Full Bar was about $1,200 fitted

What's the problem with the nudge bar??? Looks to me like it's come out victorious!!
