Guys, I am performing a light restoration (mostly cosmetic) of my new to me '88 Ranger 680c over the winter and am looking for quite a few parts. If you have a minute, please go over to the Buy, Sell, Trade forum and check out my post. I appreciate any help you might be able to offer. Thank you.

Goose ... have you placed a call to Ranger yet? before you call them, be sure to have your VIN number handy, they should be able to trace your boat to when it was built and give you some good support.

Sled is correct.

Call Ranger, they are great to deal with and will have parts that you are looking for, or know what alternatives the may be.

Yep. I did this too last winter. Called Ranger with the hull # off the back (and a credit card#) and a couple weeks later all new seat skins showed up. Took about 10 minutes to change them out. Also, some of my seats only needed up a new cover for the back rest (the bottom was fine) and they will do this too.

one of my favorite upgrades might seem small and insignificant ... but putting the 2012 steering wheel on my old '94 looks sweet!

Sled, would like to see how that looks. Have not decided yet if I am going to go all "stock" or to a resto-mod look essentially updating everything but the hull to today's tech / look.

Hey all you ranger guys (or anyone else), if you are looking to update or customize your dash/gauge/switch/bow panels check out this place/guy.

If nobody hear goes this route soon I'll let you know because I'm going to have a custom gauge panel, and switch panels made here pretty soon.
