Will a 93 ranger exta cab short bed fit on 93 ranger single cab long bed chassis?
 






Depends what you mean by "fit". The Supercab has a 11" longer wheelbase.
The cab mounts wouldn't line up. The bed mounts wouldn't either.
But with some fabbing, you could do it. People have put supercabs onto BroncoII frames.
 






I think the front 4 cab mounts will line up, leaving you to have to make only the rear 2 mounts - but I'm not positive.

And the bed won't fit.

FYI, Ranger frames are the same from 1983 through 1997 (only difference is wheelbase) so if you need a new frame, a large selection is available.
 






Thanks for your info but I don't think I'm gonna tackle this type project...both trucks are running, I'm just sick of a4ld problems with the 4x4...might look for a donor truck just to install a manual into it
