Just did them on my 96. To make the job easy, take the bed off the truck. I did mine that way,fixed a lot of other things too. Had 2 friends with same problem, told them to pull the bed--agreed lots easier. You have to unhook some wiring to lights, mudflaps and fuel fill. Bed is light 2 guys can lift it. I was alone so I cut 2 2x4 to span the bed and put 4 slings to the forks and lifted it using forklift. Tip #2 drill into the rivet head to about the depth of the near side of the frame. Max dia is 7/16. Take a punch, knock head ring off, then use 3/8 punch and 3# or more hammer and drive the rivet out. If that fails drill the rest. Tip #3 Do not buy bolts with a kit if they are 12 mm. Loose in the hole. 7/16 work better, get length so there is about 1/2 in of unthreaded bolt to fit in hole. Use lock washers. Getting the bolt out of the spring eye or shackle can be a nightmare. Two types of spring bushings could be used. LMC doesn't list the 2 piece rubber for ranger but they are shown for Explorer, use that part. Of course, the reality is the truck maybe just too far gone to make it worth while. Local parts yards got lots of them. More ?? try emil me.

Today's Featured Article - When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
