[KNIGHT-RANGER]

SO I HAVE THE 89-92 STYLE EXTENDED CAB 4X2 WITH A NEW ENGINE A4LD TRANS AND VARIOUS GEARS AND A SUPERLIFT 5.25" SUSPENSION SO I WANT TO KNOW IF I CAN FIT THIS STUFF IN A NEWER BODY STYLE FRAME.SOME THING LIKE A 93-95 OR NEWER CAUSE I NEED A NEW FRAME AND BODY...WOULD IT BE BETTER TO GET THE OLD STLYE FRAME AND PUT THE NEWER BODY PANELS ON IT>>>IS THAT POSSIBLE????? LOOKS LIKE THE FRAME IS THE SAME BUT????YOU GUYS KNOW ABOUT FORDS BETTER THAN I CAN EVEN DRIVE......HOW ABOUT AN EARLY EXPLORER MODEL...91-94 MAYBE??CUSTOM DRIVE SHAFT IS NOT A PROBLEM...BUT WOULD BE REALLY COOL TO USE THE OLD DRIVE TRAIN...

it should fit.
the 89-97 rangers are all supposed to use the same stuff (at least with suspension like the ibeams and stuff)

the 83-88 frame is slightly different tho

MAke sure both ae 2wd. the engine crossmember is different from 2wd to 4wd so the drop brakets wont swap as well.
