Nice find, wish I had known about this tutorial last fall, when I had mine replaced.
Just click on the url for the website.

Maybe this should be considered for the Tech Info thread.

sorry
Sorry, thought some models had torsion bars. I am no expert, just trying to be helpful.

Heck, there is no need to apologize...... if anyone should it should be me!
You may be correct - I don't know - maybe there are some Rangers with torsion bars, I can's say with 100% certainty.
I was only being a smart-arz earlier!
Here -
let me buy this round! It's all good!

Oh man, you're a life-saver. This is exactly what I'm looking for.
Truth be told it would probably be a good idea for all of us to start recording repair stuff so that we can post it up for everyone else. I'm probably as guilty as anyone of not doing this. When my torsion bar bolt busted 2 years ago I didn't even think of recording it.

Some 2WD Rangers do have torsion front suspension. They are the Edge models.
