Have you attended any of there meets??? I have an 87 4x4 Ranger XLT super cab. Heh good trucks gota love the 2.9 I know I do! It is a good motor. I've not attended any of there meets but I have a buddy with an 87 on 38's thats been to a couple. I guess the admin of TRS lives in Ohio...Good for me bad for you!Yeah, I am a member of both, no I haven't been to any meets though I want to go. Being broke sucks an awful lot. I am going to make it to next catjam, already starting to save for it, and I am also trying to fix the truck, nothing like a couple projects and no money :D.Daniel Quote Selected

Daniel The 2.9 is a good motor... and yes your correct the a4ld is a bad transmission... thats why my truck got a 5 speed swap with the mitsu tranny... not the mazda tranny. Quote Selected
