I know I have been asking a lot of questions today lol. I have been searching an exhaust system (Forget about the summit racing exhaust) and I want an MBRP exhaust. My friend has one on his ranger, but its a 2000. I looked it up on the website and it said it would fit only on 98-11 rangers. If I was to put one on my 94, would it have the same set up as a 98-11 ranger? Is there any modification to make it fit? Has anyone done this before???? Any comments would be appreciated! thanks in advance!

The wheel base was extended about three inches in 98, so an exhaust kit for a 98 will probably be about three inches longer than 97 and older. That may cause problems, but I don't think it would be difficult to get around those problems.
The added length would be in the straight section of pipe with the flange right after the cats, so in theory, you could just cut the smooth end of that piece down a couple of inches (if necessary) and put it in your truck.

So if I cut a couple inches between the flange and muffler, it would fit?

the tailpipe hanger will be wrong. the exit will be at the corner of the bumper instead of right behind the tire. and it will be too long. but cutting it after the cats. and rigging up a different hanger. it will work just fine.
