what other rbv spindle will work for a 93?

koa's93ranger · Feb 21, 2012

well, looks like my bearings blew up again. some of you may remember my thread about 2 monhs ago about my wheel bearing welding itself to the spindle. it seems that the spindle is bad, causing bearing failure. i called the junkyard and it seems that they do not have any 4x4 rangers available. so my question is...

what other rbv spindle can i use to replace mine. etc, explorer or bII.

please be specific on years and models so i know exactly what to hunt for as i only have one day to do this.

needs to fit a 93 ranger 4x4 non abs.

thank you for the help in advance

If you have front ABS the non ABS spindles will NOT work FYI. I forget when they started front abs...

IIRC, 4WABS was new for '93 on Explorers, '95 for Rangers.

Yes, and IIRC you can use the ABS spindles on a non-ABS truck. Just not the other way around. I think the notch is the only difference.

EDIT: Or you can just buy brand new ones from Jim:
