I am about to change my differential fluid in my truck. It's an 03 with the Ford 8.8 and 4:10 with limited slip. The manual calls for 80w-90 oil but after researching, I am seeing that many people are using different weights. Just wonder if anyone on here has recommendations for a certain...

I am in the middle of putting an AAL on my truck and i cannot figure this out. I have the fabtech ft202 kit. The new leaf spring is too long to fit on the the bottom (it is the shortest) because of the spring clamp that is toward the rear of the truck. Does anyone recall how to take that off? I...

Last night I saw a 2wd ranger edge with tow hooks. They looked like oem ford hooks. Would it be an easy thing to add? My truck does have torsion bar front suspension. Also, would I have to remove my front bumper to install the hooks?

I'm sure this has been asked a billion times, but i'm new to the area of car audio and i was wondering what options i have for my truck. It's a 2003 Ranger Edge Regular Cab. What kind of upgrades can i do to my sound system that is relatively easy and inexpensive. It sounds great now, but i was...

My 03 edge has a slight squat in the rear. What would be the best way to lift the rear end up? Leaf Springs or Shocks?

My Edge doesn't have power windows, locks, or mirrors. How difficult of a job would this be to swap out for power ones? I can get new door panels, wiring, motors, etc from my local salvage yard.

I just made the swap on my 03 Ranger and was wondering if anyone would like me to make a how-to guide on this?It is fairly simple if you can do a little wiring and will make a night and day difference afterwards.

My 2003 Ranger reg. cab only has the 3rd brake light and no cargo light that lights up the bed when the doors are open. I have noticed that most supercab rangers have the cargo light and I was wondeing if I could make the swap by just tapping into the interior dome light and buying the other...

I was wondering if anyone knows of a grille like or similar this one on the sport rangers that would fit my 2003 ranger?

My current grille on my 03 ranger has been fading pretty bad so i'm either going to paint it or get a new one. Does anyone know if someone makes a grille for the ranger that is similar to the harley davidson grille on the f-150? I think it would look pretty good with my painted bumpers. and also...
