What did you do to your Ranger today? (Part Deux!)

[Tbow2025]

Noob’s 88 ate up the trails today.

96 long bed 4x4 with manual trans, transfer case, and a 2.3 that runs good.

That's an unusual combo for a 96 isn't it? I thought it was pretty difficult to get a 4 cylinder 4x4 by then.

From the 96 sales brochure

Looks like the last year for that option, 97 brochure doesn't show it.

Saved one from the scrapper, it'll end up being parts, as it's too rotten for the road and doesn't have paperwork. It's a 96 long bed 4x4 with manual trans, transfer case, and a 2.3 that runs good.

It's from the middle of Vermont and lived in Stowe for part of it's life. Has a cobbled together "cold air" intake, some led lights, some aftermarket stereo stuff, and a healthy dose of spray paint on the grill.

Sweet, the unicorn of a transmission, 4.10 D35 and 7.5 and a manual 1354...
