its got the ranger name, but it doesnt really have anything in common with the '83 and up rangers on this site. so the tech wont be of any help on here.

nice truck though, thats my favorite body style of fords, good deal too.

Nice truck. IIRC, the 'Ranger' was more of a styling class - more options.

My credo
If you can't go through it or around it, then go over it.
Jim would be correct. I had a 79 F-250 ranger and a 79 F-250 explorer. both had A/C and C/C. I think the ranger had pwer windos and locks and the explorer had a really gay looking stripe in it

I've got a '72 F250 Ranger with a 429-C6. If I could afford the gas it would be my daily driver
