Hello,
I am looking to buy a Ranger and would like to get some advice from you guys that seem to allready done countless hours of reaserch. A little backround is that I used to have an '89 Ranger with the 2.9 2wd manual trans and loved everything the truck did for me, but it didnt have and ex-cab and I am 5'10'' so I dont have it anymore. I am looking to get a '93-'97 cause I like the newer body style but still want the TTB suspension in the front. I still plan on getting a 2wd manual trans just wanted to get a more styleish body and an ex-cab. I dont plan on lifting or really heavely modifing the truck at all, just a good daily beater that can take my abuse.
Now the questions:
-when did they first start using a stearing rack
-is the 4 liter a much better option than the 3 liter
-can the manual trans typicaly take some good abuse (both from driving hard and light towing)
-am I better off with obd2 or doesnt really matter
Anyne that took the time to read and awnser I thank you in advance
