Ford Ranger Prerunner

I want to see some progress You have a stellar build here, I have always adored scalers especially pre-runners (my all time fav) But I always talk my self out of building one, cause I wound never run it After putting all that work into it, I would be afraid of breaking it

I built a fully custom 4x4 stampede lat year, halve the parts I made my self the other halve were name brand.....The project originally started as a way to whoop up on the emaxx's....but now I have 3 maxxs. And my stampede sits as a shelf queen..and I hate shelf queens but I have no reason to run it cause of the maxxes, but I won't sell it because of all the effort I put into it, and if I did drive it I would be afraid of breaking it(even though I built it like a tank..go figure) SO were does that leave me?

Yes I see your point, especially since you've had experience being the "spare" at those faggy marriages you attended.......

Man, you just keep getting me confused with Harold... I bet his cheeks are burning, seeing that you are talking about him again...

let us not soil the good thread provided for us by NickRummy, let us take our potshots at each other elsewhere

Linc's infatuation with me is really getting creepy. I recently got a friends request from him sent through the "Gimps gone Wild" website.

Hmm, I am having a hard time picturing the spring break edition of gimps gone wild. Wheelchairs and sandy beaches do not work very well. Although gimps and booze are quite funny, till someones foot gets run over.

Yes, I agree lets stay out of Nick's thread.

You guys are too much

Somehow I found time to wonder into the shop today I've been thinking about this steering setup for quite some time and I figured for the first attempt I'd just go ahead and try to replicate the more complicated multi link setup. Haven't made a ton of progress but this is where it's at. Sorry for the cell pics.

Brackets mounted to the frame and steering links made for the knuckles.



Here's the start of the drop brackets. Top will mount to the brackets on the frame and the bottom drops down below the frame rails. If all goes well, the steering links connect to these then there will be a link that connects each side together. Then there will be one main link that goes from the servo to one side of the steering assembly to turn it. This should allow for minimal bump steer throughout the whole range of travel.
