90 Ranger XLT 4X4 with 4.0 L V-6. 100K on it and everything is bone stock and original.
I read a review on this truck and it talked about how the steering was a bit mushy and slow, and I have noticed this. My other veh is a Dodge Magnum R/T and it handles pretty quickly compared to the Ranger. Just wondering if there is something to do to the Ranger to make the steering better or is this something I just need to get used to?
The suspension, including the shocks, as far as I know are 18 years old and completely stock. How good were the stock shocks? Haven't done much off-roading yet, and the suspension feels pretty stiff on the highway, so don't know if I need to upgrade the shocks or not, or if this would help the wallowing?
Will a steering stabilizer help?
