Hi everyone, I have a pretty sweet '98 Ranger XLT 4x4 with a topper. I get comments everywhere I go on how nice the condition is for the year. It has 156,107 miles on it. It has a 4L V6 with auto transmission. I booked an appointment for a wheel alignment and the lady who booked my service...

The Canadians will get that, ;) It's a 1998 XLT 4L 4x4, and I love it! Got it in 2006 with 27,000 miles on it. It got one oil change per year, it was mint. So I have put another 110,000 miles on it, but kept it in great shape. I love the thing. It's my 2nd Ranger, the 1st was a tough-ass...

I have a 1998 Ranger XLT 4WD 4speed auto, 4.0L. It has relatively low mileage at 180,900 KM. It has always been well maintained and I've never had any trouble with it. Last week the Check Engine light came on. I disconnected the battery over night and that worked for about 10 miles, then it...

Hi, My Ranger is a '98 XLT automatic 4.0 liter. I bought it in Sept 06 with 25,000 miles on it, and at that time switched from conventional to synthetic oil. I have since put 25,000 miles on it, and just took it in for an oil change (all the others I have done myself - the guy before me had...

Hi I have a '98 Ranger XLT extended cab 4x4 6' box automatic. How many pounds of shingles can I put in the box? I love my truck. peg

... will appreciate this, and some elsewhere too. I named my first Ranger "Ranger Gord" (the Red Green Show :icon_thumby:). Off to questions now - bye. peg
