if you look in my galleries you will see both types of axles under rangers, granted they are both gen I rangers but same width, the race truck has full size axles and you can see how much they stick out, the brown/tan ranger is actually a ranger body mounted on an early bronco frame and as you can see they don't fit to bad.

just a quest what did you use to get the full size axle to mount to your ranger? i have been giving this idea alot of thought lately. and would like to do the same to my 86 ranger. i already have a 9" rear end. ill have to locate the d44 front. (which wont be hard to do. there is a bone yard up the road with really old cars and trucks in it, they even have old studabakers in it. i know i didnt spell that right but o'well lol) im not scared of fabrication, but what do i need from the doner truck and what will i have to make to get it all to fit. also more than likely ill be droppin in a 302 and being that ill running the full width axles would it be best to use the 1356 t-case from the full size or adapt down to the 1350 that came in the lil trucks? sorry if this is high-jacking but i didnt see a need to start a new thread on the same topic.
