caught a halibut today off a pier. $30 a pound stuff. tastes good.

Nice. Never caught one. I have a couple large cast nets - stopped at the bridge near the shop a couple weeks ago and got some Mullet, Brim and Tilapia in the brackish water. All good eating size, but didn't feel like cleaning them since there was only a few, so gave them to the people pole fishing off the bank.

Got a motor for my ranger finally. A 302 should be pretty fun in that thing lol

Def going to be nice going over 40 mph on the freeway uphill. That 2.3 is a DOG

It's getting an 8" rear end with a posi, so it's gonna be doing Ls

It actually has a posi rn, but the 302 will kill the 7". Lil fucker never gets stuck when I go off roading in the desert. With the tires and diff I got now I can off road comfortably

Burgs, you have a pre '02 with a Lima/LL2x? Either way, assume you got an 8" with discs? Would love to see some of your work on it so I don't have to visit a Ranger forum.

Yeah, I got a '92 with the EFI Lima

Yup! Went with the ford explorer 8.8" rear end w/ disc brakes. I might actually make my first build thread here on r3v HA!

Honestly, The Ranger Station is a great site, it's the r3v of rangers LOL

This is a good little write up that gives you an idea what to expect

Watched the Apple TV documentary on the Beastie Boys last night. Pulled the driveshaft in the 02 listening to Ill Communication for the first time in at least 15 years.

Yes, I am also waiting for those things.

[MrBurgundy]

Yeah I put that off too long, like usual

I was at the shop late friday night and found out that we have security now in the lot all night, so I don't think the pee pee truck is going to work..

Our landlord didn't even supply this security service, but the tire warehouse hired them because their cars were apparently also getting fucked with

[roguetoaster]

Plot twist, landlord is the one messing with stuff.

This is not acceptable. It looks like a corolla with a distorted caricature of a BMW front end photoshopped onto it. Further drives home for me the point that I am not a BMW fan, I'm an E30 fan.

I had a 2004 Ranger, and a 2001 Explorer. Very familiar with those.

Taking a step away from something when it starts to feel stale is invaluable IMO

Especially when it comes to something you typically enjoy.
