Ok, I looked in the Tech library at axle codes & I can't find the one mine shows.

Anybody know what axle code 825 is? :icon_confused:
It's on an 84 Ranger, 2.8, with a c3 auto.

Also, If I read it correctly, there is a slight width difference in the axle shafts in the B2 & the ranger. I have a complete rear axle(7.5 with 3.73's) from an 84 B2, will it work in my ranger? My ranger rear has just started making a clunking noise when you let off the gas & get back on it, I don't have the dough to fix it right now.

im not aware that axle shafts themselves are different
the rear ends are in that the spring perchs are in different locations by like 1/2 inch or so
 
On the axle code, I guess it is safe for me to to assume that it is an 82..which would be a 7.5 with 3.08's. Why my tag says 825...who knows.

The article in the tech library states the passenger side axle shaft in the B2 is 1-5/8" wider than the rangers of comparable years, but if the spring perches are different, I guess that is my biggest obstacle. Guess I will do some measuring this weekend.

82 = 3.08 7.5"

The Bronco2 axle is wider, all the extra length is on the passenger side.
the spring perches are spaced further apart.
