85 Ranger questions

I found an 85 Ranger v6 5speed and was wondering if anyone could tell me what to look out for. Anyother tips as far as baggin and mods are concerned would be appriciated.

were to start lol. make sure the motor n crap is good. baggin isnt that hard just is a bitch if u want big wheesl.

James, I was thinking 18s or 18/20s and it does run as far as I know. I'm gonna take a look at it either tommarrow or the next day...I read on another post that most people make their own front bag mounts does anyone have pics of what they should look like? Anything else that I should be prepaired for?

gravity werx is coming on out w/ some sweet mounts. mine was on 18/20s

mines on 20's! not bd though

always check to make sure its not rusted out either. nothing worse then working on a bucket of rust. make sure it runs good and youll be good to start cuttin!!

im parting out my old 87 if yall need something let me know.

there REALLLLLLLY bad about rusting behind the windshield so look for any rust on the floor. also rear wheel openings like to rust also since dirt n crap gets cought up in there.

thanks Jayson I'll keep that in mind....so I shouldn't have a problem with the 18/20s? I'll have to check out the Gravity werx mounts, any pics or maybe a link to where I can get them? Thanks for the heads up on the rust locations to. Thanks cris I'll remember I look out for that. It would suck if it was though.. lol
