I have one with 4.10’s and a limited slip.

Make an offer.

@fordgasm69 I'm not too far from you, between Roberta and Fort Valley. Might be able to help out with the search, might even have something already. Few questions:

1) Are you certain you need an 8.8?

Rangers could also come with a 7.5", especially in those early years. I might have more access to the 7.5" from those years and 8.8" in the 93+variety. Like @RonD said, the 93+ axles are like an inch wider per side, but it's hardly noticable once installed.

2) What gear ratio?

3) Open or limited slip?

Definitely need 8.8...and because of my wheel/tire combo and ride height i need the 89-92 width. If I have to i have a mustang trac loc in can put in, can't deal with that one wheel peel...prefer 3.55 or 3.73 gear ratio but I can deal with any ratio

I don't have any 8.8s of that year range, but I will keep my eyes open. In the next day or two I'll see if I can find the info for the guy I bought my driveshaft off of last year. It came from that year range and had an 8.8, but he was getting close to scrapping it at that time.

Hey @fordgasm69 i just spotted this on facebook marketplace. It's listed in Griffin, GA which is about 30-45 minutes away from Thomaston. Not sure if you'll be able to get much closer than that.

Unfortunately, I can't tell from the picture if its a 7.5 or 8.8 axle.
