Ford Ranger F150

[Grumpy pants]

I have a Ranger and it has what I think is Mk1 S.C front suspension.

It is the only SRB I have with grub screws on the front suspension and really spindly lower arms?

Did the Ranger have this early set up?

I've also got a black front bumper which is not painted black and it hasn't got the Tamiya Plastic Co logo on it..which all my other bumpers have got. Does this mean I've got MK1 bumper as well?

And was this bumper on the Ranger or just the S.C?

I'm slowly but surely getting to grips with the MK1, MK2 and Re Re differences.

Sorry about all the questions, I'm obsessed with the S.C and Ranger right now!

The Ranger was launched by the end of 1981, the Super Champ a year later.

Anyway, I'm sure reading this TC entry will be of help to you: http://tamiyaclub.co...83645&sid=14456

That's a really good link thank you mongoose1983.

It will give me hours of pleasure working out what I've got in my spars box and on my shelf.

No doubt a bit of everything!

That's really good link mongoose1983..

I've been in the garage AKA man cave this morning and I have 2 Sets of MK1 front supension, 1 MK Gearbox and a MK1 front bumper.

Onto the other bits tonight, chassis, front post, servo saver and battery box lid.

Exciting stuff.

Well, all the credit should go to fritjofarnold, a top bloke for Norge. Should you need any further information on SRB vehicles, don't hesitate to drop him a line. He's knowledgeable and always willing to give advice or even help you with some part.

I know I'd be excited if I was working a Ranger. Tonight I'm working on a vintage MSC for my Rough Rider, so I think I understand the excitement you're talking about, mate.

Have a good one, and don't forget to share some pictures with us!
