We have gone full circle lol. When I was a kid it was all about Frenching, shaving I'm just generally cleaning up the vehicle to give it a more smooth look. Arguably the Ford Ranger did a pretty good job right out of the factory minus some emblems. I think it's pretty cool and pretty clever but you are putting in a little heritage style back into the truck.

@@AtomicReverend They do say things always come back full circle lol. But I agree definitely traditional mini trucking was always about frenching/shaving everything. To my defense, I did flip the handle on the back side :). When I paint the cab I plan on shaving the 3rd brake light as well as I have something special planned for the fender badges.

Hey, youre welcome to ask as many questions as youd like! Im going to take your recommendation and make an update video soon. If you have anymore questions let me know and I can always answer them in the update. As for the column, It wasn't too difficult, just try and find one thats the same year as your truck so you dont have any problems with different wiring connectors. And be careful with the airbag clock spring. It was totally worth it for the extra knee room though.

Thanks Paul, I agree with @Earthy0 great series. You don't happen to belong to any Ford Ranger forums do you? I have a 2002 Ranger XLT single cab that I did a 4/5 DJM drop on which is what brought me to your channel. I'm still rock'n the stock size tires which is what I wanted but I'm a little stuck, as I don't feel it's road ready because I don't like the uneven gap/space in the front tire wells from side to side. Some may call this the dreaded "Ranger Lean". I'm trying to figure a way to even/offset it in a safe manner and don't say just get you a fat girl lol. Don't know how many time I've seen that one. Thanks for reading my comment. Love your fab shop and the mini sheet metal break, I'm envious. You rock man, great job!

Thanks Neko, Im part of some forums but dont post much. Ah dont let the uneven gap stop you from enjoying your truck, most people would never notice. We only notice because its our vehicle lol. If swapping the leafs like I did in this video doesnt yield enough results I may just get a 1 inch lower block and install it on the passenger side. This should even things out. Hope this helps!
