Does anyone know where i can get some manual locking hubs for a 98 ranger. Everyone tends to sell to 1997 and from 1999 and up. I cant find any for my year.
Thanks

For 98, Ford used a pulse-vacuum hublock on the Ranger. IIRC, 97 was still a TTB front end, and they did away with the system for 99 in favor of a live front axle. The PVH is probably more trouble-prone than the lousy locking hubs were on the TTB, but less prone to mechanical failure of the hubs.

Yea, i read where you can replace my year with the explorer setup, but i dont like them always being locked in. Has anyone bought a manual locking hub setup for a 98 model.
