Hello, I was looking for steering kits for a full width dana 44 swap and found a very limited amount. The one i did find is from ballistic fab. I was wondering if I should buy a 3/4 inch kit or 7/8 inch kit and also is there any other place that makes kits cause i have heard some very bad stuff...

Ok, so I was wondering if anyone has done a solid front axle swap with full size axles from a early 70's f150. I would like to know how to do the coil buckets. They need to be moved out pretty far from what i can see. Or could I just run only coilovers.

Picked up a 1985 Ford Ranger 4x4. Fabricated some frame reinforcements/roll bar mount, next in line is solid axle swap. Got a d44 front and 9inch for the rear. Very low budget project cause im 15 and all the money is earned or out of my parents pockets.

I would like to do a sas on my 85 Ford Ranger, but i do not know what will work. The width can be about 8 inches over stock. I want really just a list of vehicles that I can pull the front end out of and have the least amount of work to get it in. Also I will be running leaf springs. Anything...

Does anyone know if the Trail Gear Rock Defense bumper with work on and 1985 Ranger without cutting fenders

I got a question. With that gear ratio how does it crawler and whats your maximum speed.

Hi, i just picked up a ford ranger and am going to put a 302 in it. I want to make it a mild crawler and want to know all about the conversion. What i am mostly worried about is how to line up the tranny with the transfercase and what engine to actually go with. Strenght durability and torque. etc
