I hate those torx bolts with a passion
And to add to it, everything on a ranger is metric, so every single god d*nm bolt is a different size. lol

Drove to work- and low and behold there's an 89' jeep comanche for sale right down the street.
New 4.0 with 6k on the clock, lifted, 37's, geared,bobbed, spare mount, winch, quick disconnect, hilift and mount, brand new everything down to the paint.
Hate to say it but the ranger just might be going bye bye....lol.

There's one by my house that sat on the street for six months. Then one day it dissappeared. A couple of months later, it was back and it looked really nice. It is for sale, too. If I had the money, I sure bought it. They look like a lot of fun. lol.

Just a dead battery. I need a new one anyway since its still the original factory battery, and sitting for over a month without being started wasn't good to it. I just need to jump it off and I'm sure it'll be fine.
