This video made me realize I’m missing the center part of my header panel behind the grill for god knows what reason, excellent tutorial too.

Just bought a 2000 ranger and I wanna get the TRQ led headlights. Realized after having it for a bit I noticed I can’t cause the headlights are different shapes. Somehow just got lucky and found a 2001 grille on marketplace. Thank you!

i have a 96 and when i got it the front was already swapped with a lile 2007 front but the bumper was missing so i went and got a bumper and then found out the mounting brackets on the frame are different any ideas on what i should do to make it fit?
@SBS_Auto11 ай бұрын
Rhere is a few write-ups on the ranger station forums about how to mount a newer bumper to a pre-98 truck. I believe it involves fabricating a plate, or u can cut the mounts off a truck at the junkyard, heard guys swapping sides, driver to passenger and they line up on a 97. Give it a try. Will take some cutting and welding.

@sbsauto I got a ranger and it was a 2000 and someone has already done this conversion on it. But I don't think he wired it correctly. I had to replace a part insthe turn signal lever. Just to get the brights to work and now that they work, it seems like the turn signals Just get bright when I push it forward and the main headlights get dimmer . When I pull back on it to flash the brights. It seems like the flashers get bright and the regular lights don't dim?. Help. I'm wondering if I use my turn signal with the brights on is it going to blow a fuse or burn wires?
@SBS_Auto4 ай бұрын
Interesting, sounds like a broken multifunction switch. Or they wired the headlights crossed with the signals. All i did was take the extra running light bulbs and removed them... this caused a "fast flash" so i installed an LED signal relay under the dash to fix the signal speed. If you've already replaced the multiswitch (lever that operates the turn signal and activates brights) then i would look into replacing the 2000 headlight/signal harness and start from scratch.

I have a 1998 and I’ve got the 04+ Hood and an 07 grille on it with the stock headlights , do you know if I will need to change the stock header panel if I wanted to fit 01+ headlights or 04+
@pay2playent628 ай бұрын
I still have the Stock Headlights and Stock Header Panel from a 1998 just grille and hood has been changed
@SBS_Auto8 ай бұрын
I went ahead and changed the header panel because it was damaged. Im pretty sure you need to use a 2001+ header panel for everything to line up though.

Would I need that relay if I’m not converting to LED?

Yes. Because it would flash fast only using 2 of the 4 bulbs.

@ManuelCastillo-rk5ur no, if u took the extra bulbs out, it would flash fast, which is why you would need the led relay. Idk why yours isnt flashing fast if u took your extra ones out 🤷🏾♂️
