Hey everyone, im looking to get a hitch for my truck and a parents friend let me know he has an almost new one off an explorer he recently got rid of. I know the frames of explorers/rangers are pretty close to the same but does anyone know if this will fit? I can get it for free if it does so this is why I am asking. Thanks!

I would say that it would fit, the vehicles are all based on the same frame structure, If your not sure measure the distance across the hitch where it will bolt into the frame and then measure the distance across inside your frames

If you're not making mistakes, you're not learning.
Actually it won't fit. Explorers have slightly wider frame rails in the rear than Rangers. Lots of other parts will interchange, but that's not one of them, sorry man.
