SportTrak 4x2 w/ 4x4 front end + Transfer case from Ranger ???

[MudRanger]

Well,

I'm going to be puttin a straight axle in my Ranmger.

Today I looked at a sport Trak as my daily driver. (1998 Ranger has 89k on it).

It has Torsion bars and the same SLA setup as the Rangers. I want to swap everything I pull off the Ranger and put it on a Sport Trak.
Has anyone done this ???

I have never done it nor have I seen it done, but I do belive it is possible. The 2 and 4wd ST use the same front suspension. The main difference is obvious, but I do know the spindles are different. I am not 100% sure if the Ranger and Explorer are identical. Good luck with the stright axle and let us know if you do the swap.

Please post what you end up doing; I have a ST purchase forthcoming and I am looking at all feasible modifications to improve it's off-road capabilities.
