    Extremely sloppy shifter.

    Just picked up a 94 Ranger 4x4... It's a 4.0L 5 speed manual and the shifter is crazy sloppy. When in first or second gear the shifter will move about 2-3 inches in any direction. Shifting from 2nd to 3rd is an adventure. Usually involves leaning over into the passenger seat to get the top...

    What do you think it is worth?

    I found a guy that rolled his 1993 Ranger, got the 4.0L, 4x4, Auto Trans. Was all stock, decent 31x10.5x15 tires. He rolled it and totaled it. Bed could be used for an off-road truck but its not great, no other usable body panels. Drive train should be good but no guarantee since it was...
