ok so i just bought a ranger the other day. its a 1994 XLT 4x4 4.0 auto. it is stock and has basically every option. the only one i can think that it doesnt have is fog lights. it does have high mileage tho. 262k eeek (thats what the odo says but who know if the motor has been replaced or not.) but it runs and drives great. picked it up for $1300
there is a slight tapping/tick commin from the engine. it comes and goes. like it will tap for a little then be quiet then tap... im assuming its just the lifters. once it heats up it doesnt do it nearly as much. i just changed the oil aswell i used GTX 10w-30 and a bottle of lucas.
i will be changing the transmission fluid soon aswell. (i did this in my old 94 4cyl 2wd ranger before)
but i am a newb when it comes to 4x4s. as i have only had a 2wd ranger which i sold for my 89 5.0 mustang (DD).
i would like to change the fluid in both axle housings aswell as the transfer case. this is where i need the help. i am not sure on where or how to do the transfer case. any help would be appreciated.
also what is the largest practical tire i can fit with the stock suspension? right now it has 235/75/15.
and here are some pics:
