Thanks man I'm glad it worked and I didn't end up with holes in my flares lol

 

[multiranger]

Man that Ranger looks really good... Sounds like the Ranger flares are similar to the old Jeep Cherokees to get off.. What a pain those were!

Got all the U-Joints installed on rear drive shaft and replaced the seal on the rear end had a little leak.

Little update
Some how I pulled rear drive shaft apart wheeling?

Now I'm loosing clutch fluid no leaks or signs of one dam thing. Trying to get the new beater going so I can operate on her.

Pull the inspection plug and inspect the slave. Look for fluid slug inside the bellhousing.

That is what I'm thinking but don't want to find out. I bet I ruined the new clutch already also.

Yeah man I don't screw around with aftermarket slaves anymore. Last one I got was OEM Ford. Pricey, but guarenteed quality.

Agreed! I bought my share of Napa ones, they warranty them, but itisn't exacly easy to just swap them out! I have another Napa one going bad in my Explorer, time to go OEM,

I had to swap one out on a trip to the Badlands too, not fun and I was pissed cust it was a new one I was replacing.
