When I replaced the tranny, clutch, clutch slave & master in my 2004 Ranger 2wd the shop that surfaced the flywheel didn't use the right machine. The clutch shudders when I let out the pedal. I'm thinking of this time of unbolting and raising the cab to make it easier to get at the bolts...

My brother and I swapped out the stock 3.73 7.5 axle out of my 2009 Ranger 2wd 2.3 5 speed regular cab and installed a 4.10 7.5 axle out of a 2006 Ranger 2wd supercab that had 2,600 miles on it when it was totalled. Now my speedo reads 67-68 mph when I'm going 60 and the odometer reads 11 miles...

I am installing new front bearings and rotors on my 09 2wd 2.3 Ranger. It has ABS and I have done a lot of work on other Ford trucks. Is there anything different on it than older 80s F150s that I have owned?

My 2009 has the TPMS system in the silver painted 7 spoke wheels. My 2004 doesn't have them to the best of my knowledge. 2-1/2 weeks ago I bought a set of four 2002 7 spoke silver wheels with tires on them for $50. All tires hold air and two of them have useable tread. Last Monday I got for...

I have a 2009 regular cab base plain Ranger. I almost never have a passenger and I deliver pizza. I need more room in the cab. Is there a way to remove the right side of the split bench seat in my truck and still keep the drivers side of it?

I'm adding a couple of flood lights to the bed area of my 09 Ranger. Is it easy to tap into the fuse box with a circuit for the lights or should I start somewhere else? My truck is a plain jane 2 wheel drive.

The towing capacity I see in the Ranger brochures for my 09 2.3 5 speed manual Ranger seem very low. It is all stock with 39,000 miles, longbed, 3.73 ratio axle and a factory class 3 frame hitch. It does have the smaller 9" rear drums instead of the 10" drums. I want to tow a trailer for when I...

Yesterday I replaced the blend door motor on my 09 Ranger. With the old motor out and the fan off,, and with my skinny fingers I was able to turn the blend door by turning the very top of the door mechanism. I could feel it turn and felt/heard it reach both ends of its sweep. I took the new...

When I turn the temperature control knob it changes nothing. I carry a lot of tools inside of the truck. Could they bump up against anything to effect this? It is in my 2009 2wd 2.3 with manual tranny and A.C.

A gal at work backed into the RR corner of my 09 Ranger white longbox. I got a $1239 check from her insurance co and bought another 08 white longbox at a nearby salvage yard. I can still get the original panel fairly straight but will put the replacement box on my 09. I would like to find...

Might be over 10 years ago on the web I saw a picture of an older Ranger used by a pizza delivery company somewhere in the US. I think it was red. They had removed the bed and installed in place of it a 2nd Ranger cab facing the other direction. It looked interesting. If I had more time and...

Does anyone know which companies that bought fleets of Rangers took off the new boxes and sold them? A co-worker backed into my 09 Ranger white longbeds box and dented it well. One estimate I got was $1950. The other was $1200 and higher if they can't pull out the dent.

Which 94 to 04 Mustang wheels will fit my 2009 Ranger 2wd? It is stock, not lowered, not lifted. I'm not interested in any of the V6 15" or 16" wheels.

Does anyone know what years of Radios interchange with my 04 and 09 Rangers? I put an aftermarket CD player into my 04 Ranger after wiring an adaptor. Will it swap in easy to my 09 Ranger?

Whats the newest Ranger plastic model kit made?
