Alright - I need to get some photos digitized. (If you read the CCR2000 trip report, you will see me and/or my truck in 6 of the pictures!)

BTW, I like your Ranger - clean, simple (not in a bad way), subtle. And quite capable.

BTW, I have an extra/original 8.8 from a Ranger (too bad you are across the country from me!)

...Just curious, what gears are in that???..:scratch:

3.73 with the factory Trac-Loc (which is due a rebuild.)

When I built my new rear end, I up-geared (lowered?) to 4.10.

...Bad news...

...My rear axle is again leaking out both sides...I might have to find a 4.10 Ranger rear end locally as I think I may have other problems other than the bearings being the leak problem...:scratch:

You can't wait just 4 months?
