keep the ford or get a yota?

[MilanoCivic97]

ive got a damn near mint condition 95 f150 4x4 right now but gas is straigt up killing me. im about to move out and do not think ill be able to afford the gas in this thing. ive thought about getting a toyota pickup 4x4 for fuel economy but how much better is a toyota with a 22r gonna be than a ford with a 302?

[nismokid]

Do you need/want a 4x4? If not you could just roll around in a 2wd...Hey I have a lil lifted 2wd ranger for ya! lol It gets like 20 mpg!

[MilanoCivic97]

id like 4x4 but to tell you the truth, i never use it. what year ranger is it?

[CanTheWhales]

Either a Toyota or a Ranger are gonna be good on gas, if you wanna stay Ford, that Ranger sounds nice

[Hellaslow]

i get 18mpg city/hwy with my 22r 4x4 yota on 33's

the 22r is gonna get better than the 302 but a 22re fuel injected is gonna do better than the 22r ... and toyos are damn good in the mudd

[TBSpyder]

If you're looking for good gas mileage, screw any truck. None of them get "good" gas mileage.

what lift do you have now to fit 35's?

[SLOWBOOST]

4''procomp, 2'' body. rears getting ready to get redone too, loosing the shitty blocks and getting 5.5'' shackles then 5'' lift springs and 39's with the sas:evil4: perform a million times better than the ifs, maybe someday dual cases with 4.7gears.

[JDM PUNK]

Do you want to sell that procomp lift when you sas it?

[Hellaslow]

Do you want to sell that procomp lift when you sas it?



thats why i was asking him about his lift... i need a bit bigger lift... now all i have is 33's and i want bigger!

a 6in lift goes for 5-800bux on ebay...

[SLOWBOOST]

yeah ill get rid of it all when i cut it off. Have you guys cranked the torsion bars? theres a couple quick and easy ways to lift these for cheap, balljoint spacers work good too.

[Hellaslow]

i've already done torion bars and shackles also sittin on 33's

[JDM PUNK]

yep I'am torsioned. I'am on a 3" body on 33's......What do you mean after you cut it off?....Isn't it bolt on?

[SLOWBOOST]

all the ifs brackets too. just torching it off the frame and getting rid of it like that.

heres the balljoint spacers link. id look into those if you guys want more lift for cheap

[JDM PUNK]

Shouldn't it all unbolt?

[SLOWBOOST]

yes, but you still have to remove the ifs brackets that are welded to the frame. which is what im cutting off to save time unbolting a bunch of junk im not going to use anymore.

[JDM PUNK]

oh sweet, I'll buy that off of you when ever you are ready to get rid of it!....

[Hellaslow]

put the ifs lift f/s here and see how much you get for it... i'de be willing to bid a little...

[JDM PUNK]
