so i am new here and i have a 95 ford ranger 4x4 and i love my truck. Anyway i know this is going to sound stupid to most of you, but i just got a 97 ranger 4x4 from a good friend, for a steal! and ive always wanted to slam a truck. the 97 has a spun rod and im going to throw the motor out and the trans and the rear. my real question is the frame the same between the 97 4x4 and 4x2 because i want to buy airbag brackets for a 4x2 to install on it and i just want to see if thats a good idea or if anyone has a better idea.
