I have a question about a truck i'm buying this weekend. Its a 1984 Ranger thats already been set up for a 5.0 motor. The guy that owns it had a motor in it for 4 months with a C4 auto, and a fuel cell in the bed. I asked him what rear-end he has in the truck, he said a 7.5 with stock gears. My question is how long will this rear end with stand the 5.0? And is there any way I can strengthen the rear end to handle more until i can afford to put a 8.8 in? I know theres gears on the market, but I was just wondering if theres an aftermarket for the 7.5's?
