Ford ranger question

No mods required just a better driver

I would prefer manual free wheeling hubs on my ranger, the diff lock coming on automatically when you engage 4wd is a ridiculous idea, at least then you could use low range when pulling away on the road by just disengaging the hubs.

Can be bought but quite expensive.

 

I've not got a Ranger but i do drive a 15 year old Isuzu TFS69 to which i have fitted the manual front hubs which are more reliable then the automatic hubs that were fitted from the factory. The pair cost me about £90 new from Milner off road. I loike being able to leave them set to 4X2 and as Scraggs says i can shift into 4L (but i'm actually in 2L as the front axle is taken out of the equation) and shunt my trailer or start off in 2L if loaded thus taking the stress out of the drive train. My truck does NOT have a rear difflock but does have a Limited Slip Diff.

That sounds like the ideal setup .
