Leedom, I don't believe you really think the 97s and earlier look different enough from the 98s and newer. I think you were just making a distinction induced by your knowledge and now you feel the need to stand by it.

A-arms, better geometry, yeah. You know it's not an I-beam truck when it doesn't have 10 degrees of negative camber after backing up. I-beams, better for the guy who can't fab who wants a strong setup without breaking the bank, if you want real travel.

...Now I want a Ranger. Damn.

I am not arguing that there is a total difference in the pre 98 and post 98 body style but for me the a-arm suspension classifies it differently in my mind, whether it is a new gen or not I do not care.

I already own mine. I like the 1968 to 1979 FJ40 Land Cruiser. I also like the 1972 to 1992 full size blazer/jimmy.

Does Sean's IRS make his a different model than yours?

Sean's is a different model! I have never argued that. Since when have we talked about the difference in models. Just differences in years. I really do not care if it is a different gen or not. I classify the 98 and newer differently then the 93-97. that is it. if you said to someone who knows anything about Rangers you wanted a 2nd gen they would ask i-beams or a-arms (since you are showing an off-road version I would assume you would be talking with someone who also likes off roading in this case). That is a big difference and it also happens to be the difference I see. Also I really doubt that they would ask what model for the most part unless they were talking about an edge because there are differences in that suspension compared to the rest, but that is a minor part about this argument.

If we can have customer trucks a Trophy truck would definitely be my choice

I am not sure we can consider this a truck anymore. I think once it has a full tubeular chassis it is a Truggy!! Still completely Bad Ass for sure. Is street legal a requirement?

Their shop used to be across the street from my shop. They had quite the collection of race trucks.

Love the FJ40, I see one parked along my route home from the office every day. Someday I'll get a wild hair and leave an offer on his windshield!
