figured i would warn you fellas/gals when buying a clutch from advance auto for a 93-97 4.0 ranger. i just converted my buddies truck form a 3.0 to a 4.0. we installed a new clutch, slave, master. been having an issue with it disengaging and allowing it to go into gear. when its started in gear it lunges foreward. so we swapped trannys a few times took them apart.. i started talking to my commercial sales person and she said her husband ran into this problem a few years back. i looked at another clutch and it looked the same as the one i had. i went to autozone to compare and it was a totally different looking pressure plate and the clutch disc had 5 springs instead of 4. the "fingers" on the advance auto clutch are kind of flat and measure across 4.5 inches while the autozone clutch fingers have a small step into and measure 5 inches across. we installed everything and it works perfectly now
so to save someone else the hassle i figured id would post up.
