I got a chance to work on a 93 supercab 2wd 3.0 A4LD this week. This is the first 3.0 ranger I've had experience with. Comparing it to my 90 regular cab 2.9 auto (currently broken), both with 3.45 rear ends, I must say the 3.0 feels more powerful and definately accelerates faster. That makes up my mind about the 2.9/3.0 debate. I guess I can now join the 3.0 lover / 2.9 hater club!
This makes me want to find a nice 95-97 2wd, ext. cab, 3.0 ranger for a daily driver. My explorer is nice, but it's unbelievable how much nicer the 2wd extended cab ranger rides than the 4wd short wheelbase explorer. I think I'm gonna need my kidney's replaced if I DD the exploder too many more winters. Plus the few more MPG's would be nice.
