Installing everything took three weeks b cause the parts had come mostly from Australia and there were little pieces that needed to be fabricated. We also ordered special 37- inch tires.”īecause the Ranger’s 3.2-liter diesel engine is already powerful, Randy simply added a DP Chip for an additional 28hp and 60Nm. “ Tapos we lifted it seven inches and added wide rims-20in- by-12in, -44 offset. “ Bago halos l ahat, like coils, suspension, upper arm controls, stabilizers, and leaf springs,” he says. But to get the truck to look like it does now, he had to order parts for almost everything underneath it. Randy was more than eager to apply lessons he had learned about modifying 4x4s at last year’s SEMA Show in Las Vegas. After some brainstorming, he and Randy agreed to go with a direction that would make the Ranger look like a member of Transformers. “My taste in car mods isn’t over-the-top-I want my rides to be functional and, at the same time, look pogi,” shares the 32-year-old Capiz native.
It all started when Joey Hernandez, one of Randy’s regular customers, brought up the idea of modifying a brand-new 2016 Wildtrak. But to our surprise, shop owner Randy Lao says they belong to two people who aren’t related or even friends. When the guys of Autobot Autoworks bring two tricked-out Ford Ranger Wildtraks for us to shoot, we figure the pickups are owned by one person-or perhaps by brothers or best buddies. It’s rare that you’ll see two vehicles of the same make, model and color get modified in almost the exact same way.
