Like the title says.....I need a clean"ish" frame for a regular cab Ranger. Anything 83-97 will work, 2wd or 4x4, long bed or short bed. I don't need any suspension or axles but Ill take them if it makes it easier.

Closer to 43046 (Millersport, OH) the better.

about an hour east of Lexington Ky.
2 weeks ago they had a 94 that was in good condition.

I'm sure there are others closer to you.
search car-parts.com for something like a door to find out what vehicles yards have.

would you settle for the front part of a 97 2wd?
frame only, mounts stripped off.

pictures are free, this frame is even cheaper

it was a reg cab.

a couple months ago Ashley Auto Parts had some Rangers, they are north of you in Ashley.

don't know if it was a reg cab, never saw what the wheel base was.

If its the frame section you got off of me 2 or 3 years ago then its a ‘97 reg cab 2wd. Had a 3.0 V6/auto. Back half was a longbed, still have that with a bed on it - “the ranger trailer”.

I need a nearly complete frame to box in, sit a regular cab on and probably back-half it with tube to build a truggy chassis. I'd like to use factory frame at a minimum from the cab mounts forward.
