Hey guys, so my truck (97 ranger 4.0 OHV, 124K miles) has alwasy had a weird hop to it, some time i can notice i at slow speeds, its really bad above 60 MPH. I have a Skyjacker lift with rear lift springs and new shocks, i have checked my pinion angle and it seems right on at about 5 degree, i...

Hey guys, this question is mainly for the offroad guys since that what my ranger is for. I just got done removing my front coil spacers that were just under 1" to give my truck a bit more rake for carrying camping gear and a motorcycle, but after removing it im wondering if i should get a bit...

So im gearing up for my Baja trip in april and trying to figure out what to bring as spare parts, im fairly new to the ranger world so i wanted to know what all you guys would carry on a 2 week, 3000+ mile trip in Baja or anywhere remote. I did choose to build a ranger after my last baja trip...

Sorry for asking such a simple question but... i am in the midst of tearing the whole front end apart to add a locker (ended up going with aussie), do the C-clip eliminator, add manual hubs and all new rotors and pads, along with replace seals and wheel bearings while im there. But i had a hell...

Hey guys I’ve searched and could find and which Aussie locker are you guys running, ive seen conflicting results, aussies web site calls for the XD-13527 on their supplement guide for installing on a D35 TTB but on their site this doesn’t specify any ranger, but does say 88-97 Mazda pickup front...

Hey all, I wanted to put out an invite to anyone who may want to join. In April I’m planning a Baja trip for about 2 weeks, it will consist of mild to moderate off-roading, lots of beach camping, a night at some hot springs, possibly another night or two at a secluded ecolodge, whale watching...

I have a question, I dropped my truck off for an alignment after adding a lift kit, skyjacker drop brackets with 6” coils and 1” washer spacers, the driver side tire is good but the shop can’t get the passenger side in say that it’s 1” out and recommend that I put the arm in the driver side...

So i got the 6" SJ lift on but am just waiting for Skyjacker to get back to me about the drop pitman arm issue. So have started to look for tires, where i am at is, i am going with 33" for gearing sake, (i would love 35's but 33's will be be a little easier on the truck) and becuase i want to...

Hey all, we’ll I searched google and the forum and couldn’t find an answer, but I just finished getting a 6” skyjacker kit installed and it seems their extreme drop pitman arm only seats maybe 3/4 of the way or less onto the steering spline, i torqued it to 210 ft lbs and tried hammering it on...

Hey all, im sorry to start another thread, but i finally got the SJ class 2 lift kit and the radius arms, got the drop brackets installed and radius arms onthe axles, but now when im trying to put the coils in, they dont really want to stay in after i twist them in to the buckets will this be...

Hey guys, i finally started building up my lift, i decided to piece together my Skyjacker 6" lift, my plan is SJ drop brackets, 6" SJ coils with about 1" of washer under since i am a 1997 supercab with the 4.0. When i sell my deavers i am getting goign with the skyjacker 6: leafs. i have...

so i just got a set of deaver F31 for $150 and they seem in good shape, i also got the mount plate for reaf coil overs that go on top of the leaves for another $50 and now i’m torn on this front coilover conversion kit (just brackets and the engine cage bar) for 300 he has, what do you guys...

Hey guys, so i bought my 97 ranger knowing reverse was an issue (there is no reverse) so i finally got a gasket kit and tore into it tonight, the VB gaskets looks fine but i’ll still replace it with new, i found no big chunks of metal in my pan, but i did find my reverse servo to not have much...

Hey guys i have been doing some research on lifts as i gear up for my 1997 supercab 4.0 build up, i am for sure getting the top of the line skyjacker with the M95 shocks and a superrunner steering ( i know i will have to modify it for a 6 inch lift). But after reading about how finicky the TTB...

Hey guys! i just bought a 1997 extra cab ranger 4.0 liter 4x4, which probably needs a new transmission, it has no reverse and no engine breaking in manual 1st. So when i get it ill investigate more to see if its the servo or seals or band, but i cant check until i get it down here from seattle...
