My 88 Ranger project is turning into just about a full restoration and so far my only source for find stuff like window felts,seals,weather strip,etc has been LMC. Are they our only place to get Ranger parts like that and interior stuff?

^^^Good place to start. Check Ebay as well. I have bought a few oldie NOS parts for buddies with BII and Rangers. Just search your truck with the year in it and see what you find with new in the search field.

Good luck, Bro.

I have the LMC window gaskets and scrapers in my truck, vast improvement over what was left of the originals.

I also have new carpet and door sills to put in too...

Yup, that's pretty much it but like the others said: ebay etc. You can always check with the Ford parts site and dealers. You never know what NOS might be left in inventory.

LMC has pretty much everything you need. Also JC Whitney. But the quality of some things is not all that. Body panels for example are very lightweight. My original tailgate weighs probably twice as much as the LMC piece.

Rock Auto has kits for scrapers and all the belt strip.
I just redid my super and it's great. the only trimming was on the
scrapers to make them fit really good.

I think I got everything including door seals for around a C note.
