Getting the Wheeling Fever
The brake lines rusted threw on my 87 Ram 50. Bought a 94 Ranger XLT Supercab 4x4 3.0 5 speed. The price was right and it is rust free except for the shock mount i just broke off a front suspension arm. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Where do the ford guys hang out? Can some one recommend a forum? and Service manual link?

Yeah, I hung around the ranger station when I was rebuilding the tranny in my daughter's Maz Navaho. OK board, but not as good as here...

well the mitsubishi forum is kinda concentrated to one sub-forum so everyone tends to seeing everything. TRS (the ranger station) the information is too spread out IMO.

Yes, i have some thing like 10 cars and trucks in various states of disrepair. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

It needs a head and the chain guides should probably be replaced. Just put in a newer replacement fuel tank. Tranny shifts nice.

Yes, the stock 3.73 gears are too tall and the clutch chatters. I let a rust free 3.0 Ram 50 auto sport cab get away about 2 years ago that i should have bought. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
