Hi all, as the title says, I recently swapped the frame on my 2006 Ranger with a 2004 sub-frame, and wanted to post my experience, along with any tips that can help out people. I'll try to be as thorough as possible, but may miss minor details. I'll be happy to answer any question that you have...
Where and how does one obtain a drawing of the frame for 1998-2011 Ranger regular wheelbase (111.5") and "long bed" wheelbase (117.5")? I have some CD's that contain shop manual stuff but a real engineering drawing would be a great addition. Any and all suggestions greatly appreciated.
Well, unfortunately I was rear ended by some kid too busy on his cell phone while I was waiting to turn into my drive way. In my beloved 1992 single cab 2.9 4x4 ranger.
Keeping the truck vs letting insurance take the truck was only a 300$ difference so I kept it. I love this damn truck.
Now I...
On my '89, there is a frame cross-member that supports the transmission. On both sides of the truck, the bolts that connect this cross-member to the main rails are not fully tightened.
Is this normal? If not, if I try to tighten a nut to take up the slack around the bold head, what is the...
Hi All,
I have a 1999 Mazda B4000 ext cab (1999 Ranger 4.0).
The rear cross member that goes frame to frame at the back of the fuel tank is rotted out. I need to order a replacement so I can fix, but I don't know what part I need exactly. Can anyone help out?
Thank!

Hey everybody, i just bought my first vehicle, a 2001 Ranger XLT 4x4 and it is in pretty good condition. What worries me the most is the frame. A majority of it is covered in rust, but not to the point where there are any holes or gouges. Any idea on what I could do to stop the rust and prevent...
Hey guys I'm doin a 3" body lift and wondered what could be used to cover the gaps in the wheel wells for cheap. I was thinking thin rubber matting or something. Just not sure where I can find something like that for a fair 20-30 bucks. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hey everyone,
Doing some work underneath the ranger the other day when I happened to look up and notice that the crossmember running underneath the front of the bed has rotted completely off the frame on one side. The other side isn't much better and looks as if its about to go as well.
