Noticed this rather mint time capsule up for auction on Bring A Trailer. Currently going for $15k with 5 days to go. http://bringatrailer.com/listing/2000-ford-ranger-11/

Replaced the 4x4 control module, dash switch, and transfer case motor, none helped at all. Could it be the 4x4 module I bought was junk? It was a JY one I found off Ebay. So was the switch. Transfer case motor is brand new though. Checked all fuses, they are good. I do get the lights on the...

My passenger side window started having some fits a few months back, took apart the trim that holds the window switch in place, wiggled the switch/wires around and it worked again. Now it has stopped working again. I did the same technique I did before to get it working, and now it won't work...

What is the best MPG this truck can get? It has a 460 and 5 speed manual o/d.

Found on Facebook:

Brought it home this morning. He bought it from a guy off of CL about 60 miles away, paid $2850 for it. Has the 3.0 and AT. 160k miles Camper shell will come off shortly, as he wants to put his toolbox in. It's not for sale as I will be putting it on my truck.

Childhood favorite. The movie that first introduced me to Rangers, over 15 years ago. About 16 minutes into the movie not one, but two 93s make appearances, each within seconds. First, a black 4x4 X cab can be seen in the background: Then not even 10 seconds later another '93 can be seen, a...

The local stealership had this for sale... must have been a trade-in. $3995 is a little steep IMHO for a 45 year old truck. But being a dealership no surprise. Wonder if that's 84,000 original miles or 184k miles? Looks like it wasn't driven that much, so i'd lean more towards 84k. Got a peek...

I see this one around town from time to time. It is a 95-97, I would guess it has one of the V6's. I don't know if it exactly qualifies as a "rare RBV" but had no clue what forum to put it in. Quite unique...

Had the Check Engine light come on yesterday, so I hooked up my code reader and got a P0401 code. Figured it was the DPFE sensor like last time. So went to Oreilly's to get one, as I did the last time I replaced it. They didn't have them in stock, so went to Advance next... same thing. Finally...

Pioneer DEH-44HD I put in yesterday. Old: New: Still trying to get the hang of it, especially trying to get the HD channels. It has about 50 different colors I can change it into...

Spotted up in Topeka, Indiana a few years back... also notice the extended frame and dual rear wheels. Definitely a custom built job.

Why did the '93-'99 XL models have 195/70-14 tires as opposed to regular 225/70-14 tires? I understand using the steelies, but why the very tiny tires? I presume to save costs? As it seemed most of the XL's were used in fleet service, judging from the vinyl floors and bench seat from hell...

Since the last pix I posted I have since repainted the very faded grille. Finally, I don't think I have ever posted any cockpit/engine pix. Here goes... My other thread of pix when I first got the truck is here http://www.therangerstation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=83387&page=2

Is there any good way to change the spark plugs on a 4.0 SOHC? Looking at the engine from the top it would be next to impossible, and dread the eventual time they will need to be replaced... hell and I thought the ones on my '93 2.3 were a PITA to change. So just short of sending it to a shop...

I was driving home after doing some running around out of town today, and all of a sudden the ABS light came on. Hit the brakes gradually and the brakes were still functioning as normal, pedal didn't go flat to the floor. Pulled into a roadside park to look the truck over. Checked the master...

Was driving in town earlier and saw my old '93, still being driven by the guy I sold it to for $600. She was still purring like a kitten as it did when I last drove her (from the sound of her as she was taking off). As a bonus, saw this '95-'97 parked in a nearby lot while on the way to the...

How do you remove the center grille piece on an '02? It is really faded on mine and I was wanting to either paint it white with the truck, black or stock gray. I only got as far as removing the 4 screws on the top of the grille and it still wouldn't come off. Is it a unit with the body trim...

On my work truck, a 98 Ranger X cab with the 4 doors, this morning after a short drive, after I shut it off the interior light stayed on. Came back out 10 minutes later and the light was still on. Had to run an errand, and the light stayed on for about 30 seconds, and turned off. However the...

My present work truck, a 1998 Ranger Xcab with the coil spring front suspension makes a very annoying squeak noise every time I steer or drive over a bump. I have zeroed in on either the shocks or springs. I am leaning towards the springs, supposedly there is a rubber bushing on them that often...
