there are no 93-97 2wd torsion bar rangers that i know of. 93-97 2wd have twin i-beam with radius arm. no cranking radiums like torsion bars.

What are you talking about? What upper bearing? You talking upper balljoint? You've gotta buy an entire replacement arm w/ joint...you can't replace just the balljoint unless your running Moog upper arms.

Wow. Try typing out full words and full sentences so we can understand what you are asking.

Best I can do is guess at this... The upper balljoints on the 98 ranger do not normally come out of the control arm, you separate the knuckle/spindle from the control arm. There is a pinch bolt on the knuckle. Remove it completely, and hit the bottom of the upper control arm to separate it.
