    Thank you guys for responding. If they were studs, the a po must have drilled them out. They are bolts, 5/8th head size. I'll have to figure something out.

    Hey everyone, I just did cluster swap last weekend. I'm guessing the gauge cluster I out of a 99ish explorer. My coolant temp gauge is stuck halfway, it bobs up and down but it stays at half. Am I correct that a coolant temp sensor is what I need to solve?

    96 ranger splash springs and shocks question

    I'm for sure replacing the front coil springs and shocks all the way around. As far as I can tell the splash package sometimes has 1 inch shorter springs that are a little stiffer. I for a 96 my ranger rides very low. I'll check out the kyb shocks. Leaf springs may be next. Dunno yet.
