The tailgate has more damage than any other part of the truck combined, I bought it on eBay as "in great shape", it wasn't but it works well. Drivers seat has minor cracking of the vinyl. More pics are available-come see it, you'll like it."

08 Ranger XL 2.3L DOHC engine w/ Automatic  OD transmission that's been tweeked a bit.

Runs & drives great!  safe & dependable transportation.  Uses regular gas.

The mileage will increase until sold.  -    Mileage quoted is as of 8-4-2013. 

 

 

I bought this when I owned a 08 Mini Cooper  S model that needed many repairs off & on.  This was my alt. transportation while getting it repaired. I sold the MINI and bought something new so this is now sitting most of the time and that's a shame since it drives so well.

 

I bought it at 293K  in January of this year, and removed the engine & transmission after having it a short while.  Both worked but the engine was really worn and I wanted a truck you could drive anywhere.  In March I bought a 07 Engine w/50K from N. Carolina, and a Transmission w/Torque Converter from LKQ in Ontario that came out of a 09 Ranger with 29k.  The Ranger engine runs & drives like it has only 50K on it at best, it's smooth shifting trans indicate the seller told me the truth.  No leaks, overheating, or slipping from the trans, just good performance.   New Plugs, coolant & 3 oil changes to date just to flush the engine well, not knowing it's total history.  I used High detergent oil for 500 miles (that now becomes chain saw lube), semi synthetic for 2,000 miles, and currently, fully synthetic motor oil.  The oil looks & smells new, it will always be good for 5000 + miles between changes, with good synthetic oil.

 

New Goodyear Wrangler Radial tires & new Cragar wheels with Chrome Center Caps &  with all new TPMS clamps & sensors installed & working perfectly.  04/2013

 

Front brakes replaced last weekend 07/2013:  Ceramic pads w/ drilled rotors-all new, bearings lubed with Mobil 1 synthetic grease, inside & out.

 

New windshield, wiper arms & wiper blades:)  04/2013  (it had a minor crack above the mirror & I replaced it to get full coverage insurance)

 

The front end parts appear fairly new, there was a history of minor impact & I suppose they had to replace the front end components & lights. 

 

Re-cycled Gentex  Auto-Dim rear view mirror installed:)  04/2103

 

HID headlamps 6000K

 

New OEM plugs & Wireset as well as a new Ign. Coil, TPS, and MAF sensor.  05/2013

 

New power window units:) 03/2013

Power door lock cylinders:) 03/2013

 

Remote Start, "THOR" 2 Way FM 3000 meter Keyless Entry/Alarm system:) Installed  04/2013      I've walked blocks from my car and started it using this exact same system-it's really long range.  If someone messes with your truck, it can trigger the alarm on the truck, or, just notify you through the remote so that you can catch them in the act.   It really works well.  Has various settings including auto start in extremely cold weather.

 

New fuel pump assembly installed 05/2013.

New Battery, 01/2013

 

I suggest you come and see it before buying or bidding just to satisfy your own curiosity.  I think it's a heck of a truck at the starting price, and I know I've spent more than that price, in getting it into this good of shape.

 

The pictures were taken today, without much prep, I will clean it up some before letting anyone pick it up and drive it home.  If you want it shipped, you do the work and I'll work with your shipping agent to be available as needed.

 

Good luck,  send questions if you have any and I'll respond ASAP.
