hey just thought i would start asking people for some ideas that i could do to my truck. ive got a 94 ranger 2wd. the only thing that i have been able to do with it, because of a tight budget, was some engine accents and some LEDs. ive also been designing a cold air intake and a speaker box. saving up though for a 3/4" drop kit and some wheels. give me some ideas of small things that i can do with a tight budget.

yea man just save up for the drop and wheels...it may take u longer to do that than to buy little things here and there but u will definately like those mods better in the long run

Yea save for the drop, but if you wanna do something cheap start taking out some interier pieces and smooth and paint em. That takes more time than money and its really not that hard.

if your just avhing to do a small nickel and dime thing just paint some interior pieces shouldnt cst more than about 15 bucks. but other than that save for the drop primarily!

if i could've done things differently, i would've lowered it first. even lowered on stock rims looks cool. looks more like a work in progress, instead of an impulse purchase.

yup i wasted so much money on dumbshit i wish i would just dropped it first.

hmmmm, wheels/tires and system not with standing, I've only spent maybe $500 on the truck. Sometimes it takes finding a deal, or just small things that can make a big difference, like interior painting/recovering. If you do the work yourself, you can save a whole lot of cash.

But with the others, get a drop before doing a lot of other stuff.

yeah i think that ill just start, for the winter, on painting up some interior pieces. ive got a heated garage and paint booth so it might just owrk out for now. give me some ideas about the things to paint. ive seen it before where guys painted the cover on the door handles and the trim around the dash board. and what kind of paint should i use. because my dad said that like regular spray paint will crack.

the spray paitn wont crack as long as you clean the surface really well and lay down a primer first

rangerstill2hi · **Posted:** Tue Nov 15, 2005 5:35 pm

and dont let the paint freeze.. once the paint freezez you will never get it to stop crinckling.. (im talking before you spray it.. ) keep the paint in your room or at room temp..

learned the hard way
