Only looked at Nuway, rock auto and then autozone online.
Don't need one to get me rolling. but wanted one in the trailer for spare.
Dorman part was like 58.00
Autozone lists for 98.99
Ford will be 150.00 I'm sure
Summit lists them as well.

I mean I can try and order these if they are that scarce.
I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

Sounds like they have become scarce. Guys wadding up their trucks are gonna need these sooner or later. 
They don't hold up to corrosion like the Axle Beams do, so junkyards around here aren't full of good ones.

Do you have to run the stock I beam or can you run an aftermarket like this one http://simotorsportsinc.com/images/ibeamkit.jpg

Stock stock stock.
The issue with most aftermarket suspension parts for the ranger IMO is they they typically do something we don't want... Lift or Lower the vehicle.
What does this kit do?
If there is a stock replacement out there we may need it at some point.

changing the geometry with lift or lowering parts does not meet the rules

we thought putting smaller tires on rear would help, but bed still sitting on smaller tires.


id guess its over loaded only by 1000lbs or so    ::)

i was actually looking at the car battery pile to see if i could stuff two batteries in between the frame and spring plate. 


my blocking selection is limited and mostly used and cared for

the other suggestion was to pick up the chain saw and make bed cutouts for the tires.  too many deck screws though and would require more work to unload.


the 2.3 and clutch took it fine.
