winterizing a 90 Reanger?

Change the oil to a multiviscosity type, either 10-30 or 5-30. Be sure to have good wipers. Check the hoses and make sure they are in good shape. Put a sack or two of sand in the bed. Not only does it add mush need weight to the rear but if you get stuck, it helps to toss some under the wheels. Check your spare and buy some chains and keepers. You may not need them but if you do, nothing else will work. Put a shovel, extra blanket, some matches and a few candles in a bag or box and put it behind the seat. I assume you are thinking of Montana and or the Dakotas. If you are going to stay for more than a few weeks you may want to invest in either a block or lower radiator heater. Sure helps start-up in -20 weather. Oh, almost forgot. Buy three or four bottles of "Heet" and add two to the tank before you leave. Add the next two bottles your first morning in the winter area. That should set you up pretty good.

The Rangers are light in the back if they're not 4x4 so I would suggest getting a couple of those 70# bags of sand at Home Depot, Mendards or whatever you have in your area. Put them in the bed over the rear wheels. Works for me in Minnesota.
