I've just been given an 86' Ranger... 2wd, 2.0L, TK4spd, reg. cab. The truck is in the weeds and I can't find an axle tag.

Can anyone tell me please what size axle it is and what gears are in it? Google is no help. If not, i'll wait until I can pull it out of the brush and do the spin the yoke, count the rotations thing.


Also, I have already looked into a turbocoupe 2.3t engine swap for this truck... but I don't know if the tk4 will bolt up. I want to eventually change over to a m5od 4x4 trans, but will the tk4 work for now? Would I have to change input shafts? Are the flywheels/clutches the same for a 2.0 and 2.3? Any input is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

 

Found the axle code... 84 - 7.5" open 3.45 ratio. Curious as to what the 6 signifies. Thanks Tiggie for posting the chart.
