Finally got to the seats. Looked around for upholsters but never comfortable with what I heard or the work I saw. Called Ranger and gave them the vin #. They didn't have any in stock for a 1999...
Repowered with a Suzuki 4 stroke a few months ago. Doubt I will ever leave that product name. Best dang engine I've owned. I've not owned a Yamaha but have owned several Evinrude, Mercury and...
Thoughts and prayers to him and his family. He's the guy that helped usher our sport out of the dark ages. God Bless.
Reviewed your original post. Dang nice job. If its not worth doing right its not worth doing. Thanks for the posting of the instructions. Should help alot.
So I understand completely, you bought the skins from Ranger and used a shop for install. This sounds the right way to do it.
Need to redo the seats on my 99 492VS. Anyone replaced seats for this model yet and if so with what. The boat has a bench style seat but have no issues with going to a bucket style and having a walk...
Bought a Trick Step from Mark Peiser Manufacturing this past spring. Can't recall how I got to him instead of Easy Step but really do like the system. Probably doesn't really matter the brand but for...
BMCD could you elaborate on that. Sounds like an interesting topic to me. Always interested on rough water control.
I've just bought the 250SS. Old engine removal, gauges replaced with electronic box (which it turns out I really am enjoying), motor, all cables, taxes, labor and registration through parks and...
I've seen advertisements on that prop and also would be interested in your experiences with it. I'm still going through the break in period and don't want to monkey with the motor/prop. That's down...
Mastergun, I've got an older Ranger (99 492vs) and yes the foredeck is close. But as big as the Millennium seems, I've found it easier to maneuver around than the traditional butt seat. Fished an 11...
Good info. Have read manual cover to cover twice.
I just did what you're thinking about. I have the hull I like and needed a more dependable motor than what was on it. That particular engine was a money pit, deep money pit. I bit the bullet and...
Thanks to all. The configuration is such that none of the stick styles work. Not enough room to get into the space. Can't raise trim any higher without making contact with the fiberglass. Went to the...
Its official. New 250SS hanging on the back of my Ranger. Cannot believe how quiet this thing is. Starting the break-end on Friday. Work still gets in the way for now. Lots of new water to fish now...
Thank you sir.
Picking up new motor on boat tomorrow. I've got a ranger trailer and its about 48-50 inches from the motor to the trailer roller. Need to find a long shaft saver but no luck and short notice to...
Picking up mtoro on boat tomorrow. I've got a ranger trailer and its about 48-50 inches for the transom saver shaft to reach from the roller to the motor. Need to find a long one. Have access to a...
I have a 99 Ranger 492 and am wanting to change the trailer hubs to the new vortex from the older bath style. Has anyone any knowledge of this being possible on the older Ranger trailers. I've heard...
It dang sure wouldn't be Kansas.
It seems like a tough decision but it really isn't. I retired the first time at 57. Played golf and fished almost everyday. After about 6 mos I couldn't put a complete sentence together. Fairly high...
Agree. Reminds me of our local newspaper. If its not written by 630 pm you want see it until day after tomorrow. Nothing like reading about Saturday evening college football results on Monday...
I am a big Hackney fan but I really don't care for the MLF format. You're told you're competing against 85 or so anglers but really at most its 8 because its basically a small group elimination. The...
BN1...your absolutely correct on the numbers.....but that may also mean that more of them are being repaired than the Suzuki. Fact is they're all mechanical and all can break, all of them. I've now...
