Splash?
Is there any way to tell if a ranger is a splash besides the decals? Mine has the splash wheels, step-side bed, and color matched bumpers like the splash...
|
Does it not have splash decals? Post pics. Was it repainted at all? I'm not sure if a vin decoder would be able to tell you.
|
Does it have the flag type mirrors? I had a '97 Flareside with chrome wheels, painted bumpers, etc like you and it was apparently a "Rebel" package but I don't know if that was just Canada or not.
I think all the Splash trucks came with carpet, bucket seats w/ console, etc. |
93-6 were id'd by color match grill, bumpers and mirrors. late 96 and 97 you could get an xlt with the stepside bed, without the splash package.
so if you have a 94 with color match parts, and a stepside, it's a splash. not all came with buckets. my 95 splash had a 60/40. power mirrors were the only option it had. no cruise, no tilt, no pw/pl, no a/c. |
It is a 96 with all color matched body parts. no splash decals though. If it was painted it was painted original color which is black. 60/40 seats no tilt wheel. Has flag mirrors. I'll get some pics in the morning.
Edit: It does seem lower in the front than my 94xlt and i heard splashes were 1 inch lower in the front? |
what does the emblem on the fender say? if it is a true splash, it should only say "ranger" the flag mirrors throws up a red flag to me. splash's should have a color matched mirror.

Here's the pics. So i guess it's not a splash with flag mirrors and xlt badge.

I'd say no... doesn't look like a Splash to me.
|
Still a good looking truck though!
|
Thanks! I didn't think it was a splash but was just curious.

Stolen from TRS
Midway through the 1993 model year -- in which it was redesigned -- Ranger added a sporty Splash model to its lineup that included a Flareside bed and special trim. At first offered only as a regular cab, an extended-cab version (shown here) was added for 1994. Ford-owned Mazda now sold its own version of the Ranger as the B-Series, but it didn't offer a Flareside bed. |
but those are splash wheels, what tire size does the door jamb call for? 235/60/15?
|
Yes it calls for 235/60/15
|
Not sure but I think the splash came with a rear sway bar
|
mine had front and rear sway bars. but they didn't get the flag mirrors, and the badge should just say ranger. 96-7 you could get an xlt with the stepside bed/color matched parts.
i bought a 97 ext cab stepside that had color matched everything, but was an xlt. |
