Sorry If I have this posted in the wrong section, but I have a 92 Ranger XLT V6 4.0 with 4wd with 4 BF Goodrich MT tires.
The problem I keep having is the famous rear wheel spin. I have 4 50lbs sand bags in the back but keep having issues with the rear wheels not grabbing traction whether it is going up a dirt / gravel driveway or offroading. Yesterday I attempted to pull my friends ranger out but my rear wheels kept spinning and not grabbing traction in grass. This also happens in 4wd high and low. Anyone have any idea on what could be going on or is this just common? My truck just definelty seems to struggle with the wheel spin compared to my friends ranger that is the same year.
Also I don't know if it could be affecting it, but the rear abs that is in the rear diff is broken and not working properly and I have the anti lock light stuck on. Could this possibly be the problem?
Thanks for any assistance!
