- Solid Axle Swap 4x4
I am swapping the stock 7.5 inch rear axle assembly for and 8.8 inch rear axle from an 03 FX4. The rear shocks on my truck need replaced so I’ve been looking at different options. Looking at the Ford dealer website, it appears the rear shocks for an 03 Ranger are different than shocks for a 99 Ranger. My question is, with the axle swap to the 03 axle, would I need to get rear shocks for a 99 or rear shocks for an 03? Thanks for all your help.
