I have a 2002 4x4 4.0 4dr. I had the rear end jacked up to check the u joints and noticed that I can turn the rear wheels about 1/4 turn before the driveline moves, is this normal? If not what could be the cause?

I have a 2002 Ranger 4x4 4dr with an automatic and 4.0 extra cab. When I get up to around 60mph or higher I have a vibration in the drivetrain. My first thought was u joint. I got home jacked it up to check for slope in the u joints and found none. However I did notice that when I try and spin...

Is this really good for engines? A mechanic friend suggested I put it in my ranger.

I bought a 1988 Ranger 4x4 and on the drive home it started to run terrible. At first it would miss when I stepped down on the gas, but would smooth out if I let back up. Eventually it would miss all the time. I had to drive it 40 miles to get back to my house with a pass in the middle. Well...
