Hey Casey did you get the Ranger Fixed????

Redriverranger · 11-08-2008, 07:19 AM

Finishing it today. I decided to do some maintenance while I had it tore down, so pulled the front carrier and put in a new pinion seal, axle seals, hub seals, grease packed all bearings, changed gear oil front and rear. Checked other heims. Also added a pillow block bearing and crossmember for the rear driveshaft to get it up out of the way. Gotta build the driveshafts today.
