Those older Ford Rangers are well built! I have a 2008 with the 4.0 Litre V6. It's still running well with 215,000 miles. When I have one of those days and I get frustrated I walk away from the project, sometimes for a few minutes, other times for a day or two, until I am ready to return. Playing some of my favorite music helps when I am tackling a project. Thinking of you and your family, Ed.
First time I watched your channel, not knowing about your daughter, I have three and I can only imagine what you going through, I do pray that our Lord comfort you and that you know your daughter is in a better place, no more pain no more sorrow no more worry, praying the Lord bless you.
Well Ed , I had a Ford Ranger few years ago and got tired of setting on the side of the road . Better keep a good box full of tools with you . good luck and thanks for the video, they are always good .
I started laughing so as you said get the new one in damage free and the music started . I’ve been doing this for years and when ever I think it’s going to be easy I just go home
Good Morning Sir Ed 🖐🖐😇( -28°f ) fresh morning up here 🥶🤣👍 Very Nice First Video Inside Your Garage 🧐👍All My Best Prayers to both of you 🙏🙏😇Going to finish to look at your video tonight 👍🧐🖐
👍Nice video Ed. That Ranger sure looks to be in really good shape, didn't see any rust in the footage you had here, very nice. Can't beat those old trucks. Wish you were closer, I would come over and undercoat it for you with Wool Wax (Lanolin Based undercoating), to keep it from rusting out. You and your family continue to be in our prayers. Take Care🙏
Love the ford ranger owned one and drove one for work. Lost our 21 year old grandson in September. There days we miss him more than others holidays were difficult. We were lucky to have him in our lives.
Good to see you carrying on Ed. Productive work can be a great distraction from accepting a new normal that you didn't ask for. Thanks for continuing to put out content. Always reserve the right to realize that, "It's totally okay to not be okay today."
Nice work. If you ever switch hose on radiator or pump or heater core dip in antifreeze an that lubes them upso they slide on easier. always enjoy your videos.
When you make content, we watch and enjoy. You are not forcing any of us to watch. There are going to be good days and less good days. Take them as they come, with strength and good humor.
Nice job Ed. My boss told me if you get frustrated take a walk. Don't take it out on the machine. Come back with a clear head. I am not going to tell you that you will be fine because you will always have good and bad days. My nephew killed himself about 10 years ago on my birthday which is in about 3 weeks. Since then I don't celebrate my birthday anymore. It's not the same but the pain is. He was 16 y.o. have a good week.
Great job on the radiator swap. I agree those magnetic dishes are great, we have loads of them. That was a good idea to walk away when things are not going well.
I'm Back Sir Ed 👍😇👌🥶 It was so cold that my car 7 yrs old battery just died this morning (new one install in less that 45 min and that include the boost from Canadian Version of ( AAA ) to get me at Canadian Tire Store, then Change The Battery In the parking lot under that cold and windy weather and I was back in action 🔥✨🚀Yes shopping local is very good 😇👍 Very Nice Sun Set 🧐👍You are a very calm person Sir 🙏🙏😇According to most maintenance manuals, Do you know in most vehicles, I could take up to 30 min to fully warm up all the components of a vehicle 👍👍🧐The Pressure wire could be touched when you remove and install the new rad 🤔 Keep Warm Sir Ed and We Miss Your Monday Livestream 🙏🙏😇Be Well Cheers 🍻🍻
Glad to see you back. I’ve missed your UA-cam. I love watching them Remember time heals all wounds. Some wounds just take longer to heal. My thoughts and prayers are with your family
The mind needs the distractions from the heart sometimes. Thanks for taking the time to share your adventures, even during difficult times. God speed and happy trails.
Hey Ed good video. Sometimes talking about a loss like you have been going through is best for the healing. We are still praying for you and your family sir.
If it is indeed the cluster causing that oil pressure gauge issue, they're easy to swap and interchangeable with quite a few years, along with the Explorer and its variants of the same era. If you get a cluster out of an automatic you can easily swap the blanking panel over from your manual cluster.
Ed even some jobs are tough no matter your mood. I’ve never lost a child but I have lost a grandchild and that was almost unbearable. I find comfort in talking to God and try to stay busy. Time helps with the healing. Prayers for you and your family, God Bless
If that’s a bad mood…we gotta hang out….you need to see what a bad mood is! 🤣🤣 I loved my old Ranger. They’re fun little trucks to work on. If my framed hadn’t cracked, I’d still be running it. Anyway, Ed…you talk about your daughter anytime you want! If I ever lost one of my girls…..I’d be talking about them all the time. Does your ranger have an oil pressure sensor? Might need to replace that?
Too bad about your daughter. 🙁 My son works at a Ford dealership. Buys his parts from rock auto. 🤭 But those aftermarket parts can bite you at times, by not fitting exactly. That’s the chance you take. He’s had mostly good luck thou. Have a good day👍🏻👍🏻👋👋

Glad to see you back. Just have to take it one day at a time.
Great job on that radiator, and thanks for bringing us along!
We know well what repairs are required on old trucks, and we're rooting for you. :)
Good Seeing you Ed. We are here. 🙏👍
Well done Ed and thanks for posting as always. That Ranger ought to prove pretty handy on the farm.

Not a bad mood. Just an honest mood. Hang in there!

Sometimes the best therapy is going out and trying to tinker on something.

Great Job Ed Prayers God Bless

Hang in there buddy. ❤
Love the ford ranger owned one and drove one for work. Lost our 21 year old grandson in September. There days we miss him more than others holidays were difficult. We were lucky to have him in our lives.
I am so sorry for your loss. That’s really hard. Thank you.
Body looks good for its age and its history in the northern environment.

Way to power through, Ed! Nice video. Cheers!
Your bad mood is better than me on a good day. Still thinking of you and your family. Glad to see you back!
Always satisfying when a auto repair come out good when you DIY 👍

Thank you so much for sharing. Suicide, especially with young people, really breaks my heart.
Two cracked coolant tanks..look out for a blown head gasket. Observe flow in radiator while engine is running. Good luck.

I SOOOO related to your frustrations getting the radiator in and out Ed. That seems to exemplify every project I undertake!
Thinking of you guys. ❤

Just Wanted you to know we are still thinking about and Ann
Hope your doing Well 👍🙏🏻
No screws or bolts leftover, that's always a good thing, hahahaha; That's what I usually say as well. Good job Ed!
Missed ya brother
Cheers
I have purchased a lot of brake parts from Rock Auto. So far so good.
Thx

Thank you so much. I’m so sorry for your terrible loss.
10:00 mark.....Sometimes it is best to WALK AWAY for a bit, just like you did. It is surprising how things can fall into place after a brief respite.
If that’s a bad mood…we gotta hang out….you need to see what a bad mood is! 🤣🤣
I loved my old Ranger. They’re fun little trucks to work on. If my framed hadn’t cracked, I’d still be running it.
