- čas přidán 18. 01. 2021
- We met up with our boy John Merrill and checked out his 2005 Ford Ranger EDGE that has been touched by some talented builders. One of the builders actually came up with a hack to stop gas from spilling out in an event of a rollover or flip. Watch to get inspired on your build. The interior is AMAZING!

SORRY EVERYONE! Our camera was on the wrong setting in this episode which is why it looks like sh*t in some spots.
No worries, It’s not that serious, thank you for putting out content for us and helping when we have a questions!
no worries man! You guys are putting out awesome free content for us to enjoy. One thing that I’ve always thought would step up your guys’ production would be to film all of the talking stuff straight to the camera, and then go around and shoot all the close-ups of the parts that you’re talking about. That way you can still show whatever they’re talking about but it won’t take away from the audio quality and we don’t have to see you pushing the camera into the spots to get the shots.
would come out much cleaner to just show the shots over the voice. Quick google search on A Roll/B Roll will explain this better than me.
Thanks for the dope content as always, this truck is cleannnnnn
Now I want a slurpee! 5:20
I know this truck I ain’t a stranger I know that truck it’s a FORD FUCKIN RANGER!!!
He seems a bit nervous 😬
It was a bit cold 🥶
@@johnmerrill332 nice truck!
Redbull is hella of a thing
Love to see an owner that’s proud of their build and knows every inch of the truck and exactly what’s done to it. Definitely a clean build
LMAO you even have the USB’s. That’s about as complete and clean a build as you can get. Great truck!
Nothing better than waking up to a new terra crew video
Buddy looks cold as hell! Awesome truck.
Great truck! They did a great job building that one!
Thanks for your time and sharing.
Fantastic Ranger. Love the truck.
I think this is the cleanest build I have seen on here. It looks like everything was thought of before he built it and didn't have any, "oh yeah that's a good idea" moments halfway through the build like the rest of us
Looks like it rolled of a prerunner assembly line run by the Ford racing division.
Great setup
Another all Ford truck! Loving it. Super clean. Great stuff!😎🇺🇸
I know this truck
I aint no stranger
I know this truck.
THATS A FUCKIN FORD RANGER!!!
Really nice...great job
Very nice ride!
Seriously clean Ranger wow 👏
Gorgeous badass truck! Quality build✅💯👌🏽
It almost has that sleeper vibe
nice truck
Any of the 4 liter SOHC Rangers were sleepers with 70 HP more than any of the other engines , 220 HP in a 3100 pound truck is more than enough . Even with brand new good quality tires , mine breaks traction on dry pavement .
Awsome truck👍🏻 we need some running footage next!!
Sick truck 🤘
That is by dream daily driver right there! I'm definitely having one of these built some day.
Seriously bad ass! Dam that thing is sinister!
That’s a clean ranger WOW
Ranger gang !
Good morning Terra crew!
BALLER....
Such a CLEAN ass truck 👌#goodjob
Come out to Barstow this weekend and check out my xterra race truck.
@terracrew.. you won't be disappointed! I've been tagging you for a minute. Run it dagroot!
Btf makes some really good kits.
The world needs more Xterra content
Message me on Instagram @notatrophytruck
1:56 Da big boy 🤘
FOCUS
Would like to see this off-road!
That truck is almost to pretty to take in the dirt. Awesome build!
I need my done like this😏
This is my dream build
I have an 01' ranger that I would love to overhaul like this one.
Dude... this thing is soooo SANO! Super clean just as it should be....
Someone get that guy a jacket!
🔥🔥🔥
Give this man a sweater haha
Dang Mcqueen part, met him was amazing talented guy. Sucks he passed a couple years back. RIP
🙏
BEAUTIFUL TRUCK! Do you guys know of a good mechanic that works on ford rangers? Thanks
This guy doesn't sound like he really knows what's up with his truck.. he's thinking hard
sorry, it was cold and there wasn’t a script!
@@johnmerrill332 need a script to talk about truck and state what's on it? 😆😆. That doesn't make sense eather. Obviously just threw money at it and doesn't know what it is.. every truck I've done I know the exact parts and functions of everything.
The guy would let James talk. Quick quick video lol
I want to know more about the C4 trans swap. What adapter was used?
No adapter, bell housing bolts right up. But a billet culhane one would have been nice but couldn’t find one.
Old 2.8 bellhousing from a c5 will bolt a c4 directly to a 4.0
Bro Rangers and Older Men Tundras are the best looking Pre Runners hands down. Need to slap a Terra decal on the back window to get a few extra HP
What's a older men tundra..that's about the dumest thing I've ever heard
@@anthonyolsen9299 Older Gen.
F@#k love this channel 🍻
Whats up guys, this ranger is nice. I have a question on the transmision, your running a C4, did you used C5 bell houseing to mounted on your 4.0l?
It’s been awhile but think it was a c4 bell housing. Dana sniff built it and had the trans that would work.
What is your shutter angle?
You guys in Fullerton.
I have a 2005 dodge 4.7 single cab I want to do this with. Where do I start?
I wanna know what that center console is from
That is one sick Ranger. Imagining it with a Coyote swap and perhaps a VMP blower, keeping the C4 Trans. Would be an absolutely overkilled ripper
Coyote 😆😆😆 . Total rookie statement
Anthony Olsen haha well, that’s if he’s sticking with all Ford. Coyotes can make some pretty serious power. Obviously for simplicity and cheapness, LS is the way to go
@@hunterjohnson4954 It's really just a size issue in these Rangers. The DOHC engines are HUGE dimensionally. Basically big-block Chevy sized. From a packaging standpoint, a pushrod motor is the way to go. Either LS or 351w if he wants to stick to Ford.
@@WhyBeNick totally agree for a ranger with a stock front end, but this thing is rocking a tube front with a ton of room
Where can I find more about this danger ranger?
Anyone know where I can find those methods? Can’t seem to find them anywhere 😵💫
That truck weighed 3100 pounds stock , did it gain weight from all the tube work , or did it lose weight from using fiberglass ? I have a 2003 Ranger Edge myself .
weighs 4840 with a full 40 gallon cell.
His 2 hellas were loud, but i have 4 on my subaru crosstrek
Is this thing actually Ca street legal considering the fuel cell? I was unaware of any carb#-stamped fuel cells or any other legal ways to add one
He said it was "legal looking"
What was up with "the fuel cut off" thing, they didn't say anything about the fuel system except except the gas tank.
How much was this set up?
Why does this dude look like he's just gonna dip any second?
- I ain't no stranger, that's a Ford f@#k'n ranger!!!! - 😏
This is a wicked killer build though, awesome truck ma dude ✌️😎
When did Mikey from SNL get a prerunner?
i believe in utah u have to have mud flaps on all 4 tires az has some laws too like that and then in cali you have to have a cover over the light bars when not in use. in nevada u cant ever use high beams or light bars in the city limits. all kinds of laws u need to look into but ya its basically street legal maybe just a few minor adjustments. the laws are tricky and from my understanding if they want they can ticket you for it but thats about all i know i never had a problem i even drove a side by side down a major 4 lane road all the way down in las vegas a few times and didnt have a problem but truth is in nevada they are only street legal in single lane roads. laws are kinda tricky and depending on the cops. hopefully cops are cool with it and hopefullyyoure not putting rocks through peoples cars.
This truck needs ecoboost or a V8, the 4.0L is not terrible, but with 37's it would be a nightmare even with mad gearing.
not a nightmare with 5.83 gears, did 90+ top speed.
He’s no stranger .....
If i rolled over I would think spilling gas would be the least of my worries it’s more then likely a total loss at that point or am I mistaken??
If you rolled over and started spilling fuel, that fuel could catch fire and you could burn to death before anyone would be able to get you out.
mistaken.
That’s a mfing Ford Ranger!!!!
Why the hell doesnt Ford market something similar to this as a mini Baja Raptor.
Anyone in so cal IE area hit me up looking for fabricator to help me on my ranger
How much does a build like this cost?
Keeping in mind that it's still a v6, he's probably somewhere around 60-80k deep. But it depends on a lot of things. Just a guesstimate
I would guess a little over 100k if you didn't do any of the work yourself. Literally every aspect of this ranger was done well.
What can I expect with a V8 swap?
What does it cost to maintain?
@@asmith7094 As Roberto said, every aspect was done very well. He probably did end up spending around 100k. From personal experience, you can get a full build with a v8 swap from BTF Fab for 100-150k depending on the attention to detail.
As for maintenance, you still have general things that need to be checked like oil, coolant, brakes, etc.. You would have to check hubs and bearings, uniballs and heims, shock seals and safety equipment (functioning properly). I’m absolutely sure I’m missing more things but you should also check for cracks in the frame or tubing. It’s hard to put a price on replacing worn components just because it depends how hard you push the truck, how well everything was prepped and how often you go out. But just guessing, you’d probably be spending around 2-3k on heims and uniballs alone.
4wd or 2wd?
2wd
This guys isn’t mething around with this truck😂
Sick build.. you can tell this guy paid somebody else to do it though because our of all the crazy custom stuff on the truck all he talks about is the brand of radio, brand of seats, and usb switches lol
I guess its bad to support your local fab shop and have a guy like ohhchofab build a truck for you when you dont have time/space to build it yourself. 🤷🏻♂️👍
I hate when people end sentences with an upward inflection like a question, drives me insane. Vent over. That is a badass truck.
24,30,60? Fps... something seems off
All that weight with the 4.0 prolly gets 8mpg and takes 47 seconds to hit 60mph
00:40 this guy looks choked by the camera XDDD
no script and it was freezing.
TO MAKE IT BETTER COYOTE V8
Camera was shaking like crazy. Hard to watch.
C4 tranny as in corvette tranny???
the auto focus on the camera made my eyes hurt
Street legal? NOPE not in most US states unfortunately...
Ford fucking ranger
Looks like he’s tweaking! Lol
It's not even four wheel drive lol.
I’m quitting this show now, due to them plastering street legal on every video lol 😂, enough is enough the only place that’s impressive is California lmao
It’s a big deal in CA 🤷♂️
Wtf filmed with a potato
That’s a clean ranger WOW
