So my neighbor is got a 93 ranger just like mine, just auto, but it his totaled. Well, I want a locked rear end, but I don't wanna spend $600-700 or whatever it cost, plus switcing rear ends is probably easier than taking a locker in and out, plus I know that fu'ker is locked.. It's got a 8.8 in it, and the same gears as mine 3.73 LL. Well, I'm taking the whole rear end out, and going to have my dad weld the spider gears together. Then I'll have a locked rear end for wheelin' or when it snows a lot and have my LL for the highway. From what I hear welding a rear end is better than locker cuz there is no slipage and it doesn't clunk. I know it pretty much ruins a rear end, but I don't care, I'll have another one. The passenger side brake drum is off so I would just hafta go to a junk yard and get it or get one off one of are BII's or older rangers we have around. Will a 84 ranger drum fit on the 8.8 cuz I'm not sure, but I think my 84 ranger has a 7.5 the rear? Maybe a 8.8 in the rear?
Oh, I almost knocked my self out jacking that thing up with the hi lift jack. It sliped and the handle hit me in the head hard with a full load on it and my head hurts pretty damn bad right now.
I got some pics, but I can't put 'em up on this POS computer for some reason.
