yep. as the title states, I've finally jumped my Ranger.

as some of you may know a while back i stated i was trying to find a spot to jump my truck, a 2006 Ford Ranger FX4 Level II. I posted a video of my very first attempt, and it was a fail due to not having enough room for speed, and not a large enough take off.

this is that video.

now, I've made a few attempts since then, mostly with the same results. A few ive had the front tires barely off the ground, but in my opinion all four need to leave the ground at the same time for it to be called a jump.

I have finally found the perfect spot to do this. and i was successful. the videos are being edited for length, etc. but here are a few snapshops from the videos.

first run over it.

now I know this isnt that huge compared to some of the stuff you guys do, but remember this is in a Ranger with stock suspension.
