    I bet that bumper could easily be made into a winch bumper too. Good starting platform that would take a lot of work out of the build.

    Epic day at the junkyard!

    Some of the people who have been on for awhile, might remember when my little truck got rear-ended.



    Last week, I saw the same year Ranger, with the same green paint, and the same (stupid!) purple pin stripe, with a really nice bed. After thinking about it for a week, and having a voucher in my pocket, I went back today. I called Popsgarage, who brought Squshiee1, we got permission to swap the beds just inside the gate. As we put the new bed on the truck, the back did not set down. I was thinking the tweaked bumper must be hanging it up...NOPE! The bed was hanging at least a foot past the bumper. I was so stoked about finding a nice bed with matching paint, that I forgot that my little Ranger is a short bed. I did not even think about the length. It was an EPIC, DUH! on my part.

    Maybe I'll stay home tomorrow.

    It was a definite bummer. Bed was pretty straight and color match was on the button. Nice thing is, it only took us about 15 minutes to remove the old bed, try the new one, put the old one back on and bolt it up. We still chuckled!

    The upshot, is that the new voucher is good for another six months. I might trip over a money maker in that time.

    "

    Unplug the wire harness, remove three screws that hold the filler neck, remove the six Torx bolts that hold the bed to the frame, pull the tailgate to lighten it. We actually swapped the tail lights over at the yard, but yeah, I mighta done this before.

    It's really nice to have help putting the bed on the frame.
