i got a 97 ranger.. it has the ibeam suspension.. what years are interchangeable with its parts? body? rearend over the leaf? will the driveline bolt up from my ranger to what rear ends?

no ranger had the rear over leaf , 89-97 beams are the same 88 back will work if you got the spendles to.93- 99 body are the same i think

89-97 front suspension was the same pre-89 slightly different 93-94 interior the same as 89-92 dash wise 93-present bed same front clips are interchangeable std cabs 98-present are slightly longer for more leg room

you rang? direct swap from 93-97 all parts, 98 up you will need to change the fenders hood etc. all beds are the saem unless you have a long bed.beams from an 89-97 will work. flip kit from any year will work.

if you want rear disc brake you can swap the rear from an Explorer, They are 1.5" wider so you will have to either shorten or compensate with wheel offset...

easier to just use SN95 stang rear brakes, they bolt up once modify the bracket to slide over the axle tube.
