Thread: Camburg 7200 Ranger Project ....

Its definitely a work of art, the guys over at Camburg put out some amazing stuff. Couldnt be happier with the work they did.

I have a couple questions mostly pertaining to how your glass is mounted.... since i have same glass and having issues (mostly cause my cab is 3/8 to one side and the cage work gets an 1" wider as you go back, not my work)

anyways i notice camburg has the rear bumps right at the frame, allowing the tires to bump all the way up just before metal... i do not know how close your fiberglass cab sits to the height of a stock cab, but have you bump your tires out and articulate the suspension? We built the glass with it bump and put a 2x4 in between giving about 1 5/8 gap, but after we unbolted the sway bar and articulated it the front edge of tire does godes un into the glass, only way we could fix that would be by lowering bump stops a little lower.

Just curious if you had the same issue, i hardly doubt it being that camburg built it, but these glass do not have the trophy hump in them so maybe you did. Did camburg or you shave any part of the rear glass?

Also on your front clip, is their a hood pin or some type of mount down by the lights on the edge where that lil flange is, cannot see in your pics?
How did you connect your qtr fenders to the main clip?
Are you going to run a stock dash or leave the clip the way it is?

cut your glass its easy as that.

Camburg did cycle and bump everything to fit 37s, and we just cycled everything last week and all we had to trim was the upper shock mount on the rear cause the shock was binding a little. I know there was a decent amount of trimming on the bedsides that Camburg had to do.

Right now there is to hood pins on the front but we havnt got the grill yet so we dont have the final mounts done.
How did you connect your qtr fenders to the main clip?
They are connected with the regular hinge

And here is some pics ( I have more but photobucket was acting funny so ill have some more up tonight)

can you post pic of your qtr fender mount, is it the hinge latch style that you see in clip with the lil inset for it.

can i c a pic of the bedside like the back lip and wheel well curious what you trimmed out

does your glass spread wider s it gets to the back and does it slant down a lil from inside of glass to outside of flare

I will when i see the body next, the truck is getting worked on right now but all the body is in storage at the moment. As soon as its back on the truck i'll snap some more pics.

Got the new seats in yesterday, Sparco Evo 3, the aluminum work is taking shape also, ill get some pics up tonight of that stuff, heres a few more from a couple days ago.

what is the wire on the rotors for?

Exactly! Alot of the parts that have alot of vibration will have the safety wire. The aluminum work is coming along, should have some pics up tonight.

I need to safety wire my rotor adapter bolts, I have to check them all the time and they have been loose before.

hey were you the guy i talked to here in ridgecrest?

hey r those the pwr or fluidyne coolers? are they both for tranny? if so what are you doing for engine cooler? also what electronics are you going to run (2 way, intercom, gps, etc) models please?

why not just call up the distrubuters and see what they sell? or you going to copy the entire truck. lol an engine cooler is called a radiator. lmao

i was talking about engine oil cooler... and havent copied anything.. but he is the only one i know building a 7200 truck at close to stage i am so was curious what he was going to do for his electronics... i had no idea about the safety wire until i saw him doing it...

pretty much every truck out there is going to be running the same electronics. Call up PCI, Racer X, they will set you up with everything you need. Even my 1450 trucks run close to the same stuff as a TT, minus the giant ass GPS and higher powered race radio. But these companies specialize in this stuff from TT - sand toys.

Electronics are still up in the air, havnt gotten to that stuff yet. The aluminum and plumbing should be done in about 1-2 months and then were gonna start getting all the electrical stuff taking care of.

hey have you done your brake pedals, im having trouble getting a definate answer on which size bores to get for front and rear? I forget are you just using a 4.0l with some bolt on or are you dropping in a high horsepower v6 because that may make a difference i guess. Right now we have 4 piston calipers and 11.75x1.25 rotor in rear going to step up to at least a 12.19 maybe even more for the front now since we are switching to a 17" beadlock.

If you can help me with brake or refer to someone that be great... ive called a few people but havent got a definate answer all saying it depends or they are not the right perspn to ask for my setup

The brake pedal is just sitting in there with some clamps, havnt done the final placement yet because we just got the seats and we need to adjust the pedal to the driver specs. As far as the motor goes we have two, one is an 07 SOHC 4.0 that were gonna put some different heads, cams, intake and exhaust, nothing too major. The other motor were still in the process of building, been talking with Tom Morana and were gonna get a stroker kit, different heads, cams and some other stuff for it. Shooting to have around 300hp with that motor.

have u gotten your master cyclinders for your pedal

any updates? i want to see this finished already! haha

The truck is back at our shop now and is on hold for the moment. Brakes are done, plumbing and aluminum is about 50% done. Should start working on it here in the next few months. Ill see if i have any updated pics

I say Call up RUGGED but that's just me. lol

Im sure you'll be getting a call from us soon!

any updates?

I coulda swore this thread was dead lol, hopefully not. I love this truck

Definitely not dead, just moving slow, haha. In the next few months the truck should be getting the tin work completed along with electrical. But for now she's just sitting on the trailer in our shop taking up space.

Ohh she's so beautiful...

any updates?

Not at the moment, she's still sitting in the shop on the trailer.
