    As the title said I'm after info. I'm interested in swapping out my Borg and Warner 4405 to a 1354E or maybe a manual version. I've found 4405's in my area, but after finding the last two to be bad ( Major tail shaft play) I've given up on the junk. What I do know: -It will physically go in...

    Opinions for exhaust on a 4.0 SOHC. What you got?

    With nicer weather coming up, I'm looking into an exhaust for my 4.0 SOHC. It's an 03' extended cab Ranger. Basically I want it to be deep, a little throaty, and resonate a little in the cab. But not be overly loud to the point it will drive me nuts while driving down the interstate. It will...

    Using the tech library as a guide: http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/Alignment.html I've purchased the same magnetic protractor and have a tape measure. The slab I'll be working on is level for the most part, and I'm fairly confident in my ability to use these items to get it...

It'll have compartments at each end (in place of the jump seats) and in the middle have slots to store and hold between 4-5 ammo cans. These ammo cans will house recovery items, towing items...

    Bronco Pitman arm vs. Ranger.

    There is a Full-size Bronco in my local yard that looks to have a 4" lift. It's steering is flat, and looks to be a standard dropped pitman arm. I looked up a few applications, and the #'s cross between some brands, but not others. In a sense, I'm asking if that arm will work for me (3" lift)...
