All the people back home (rust belt)put a mixture of motor oil and diesel in a sprayer and and spray the underneath of their vehicles in the fall to avoid rust. Always works pretty good. Maybe something you might try.

[@tamas9402]

wouldn't this eat away rubber components like boots?

[@kbakeritsallaboutnobody.5761]

@@tamas9402 no not at all because it's not a solvent. It's oil based.

[@lancejohnson9868]

Put a set of these on my 2000 Nissan Frontier. No more sag when hooked to a trailer. I like them.

I have a 1994 ford ranger 3.0 with 283,000 miles still running strong

[@ultimateblessingz]

Nice, my dad has a 94 with 400k+ miles. Thing runs like its half the amount

[@D4x4Bronc]

Swap to a explorer rear axle you will get 35 spline axle shafts and possibly 4:10 LS. Use antiseize on the bolts.

[@Robbie..Ha-Navi]

i bought a 1994 xlt extended cab new. had it for 20 years. it never really rusted. it went through head gaskets like candy. it had 300000 till we stopped keeping track and just drove it around the farm

[@victoredington3316]

It looks like it helped a lot. I have 3 s-10's and they sit a little lower than rangers, Thanks for the video.

[@off-roadingexplained8417]

[@alienjoe6610]

After watching people in the rust belt work on their vehicles maybe California ain’t so bad.

[@chadlunsford6730]

Thanks for the upload. How are the shocks holding up?

[@cositalinda2516]

Total newbie here Can these rear load shock be used on a live solid axle with leaf spring for lowering with blocks ?

[@anthonypropst1818]

I have a 1993 Ranger xlt 4.0 with 182,000+. Original engine, transmission and that includes the shocks. lol Yes they need replacing.

[@joebruggman]

you should wire wheel the frame and axle, then spray some rust reformer on them, and finish off with a spray on undercoating to help make it last a bit longer.

[@MrTheHillfolk]

It's Maine,good luck. But then again,one of the cleaner cars I've had came from there.

[@joebruggman]

@@MrTheHillfolk I live in Minnesota and do it to all my vehicles, it’s the only thing you can do to try and slow it down and make it look a bit better

[@warrenvalentino5763]

love your videos. have a wicked good day! :)

[@joebruggman]

appears that the clamp you put midway down the pack caused premature wear in between the leafs making the much weaker.

[@MrTheHillfolk]

I think it's the beer cans they tried to pass off as spring steel.

My 03 s10 has super soft rear suspension its the it's single cab with the almost 8ft bed I think the weight capacity is 500 pounds ?? But idk maybe people want more travel for more weight. 🤷‍♂️

[@davidlane9525]

Iv got a 02 4.0 ranger and it has 290 and then it dropped the back timing chain and I was going ab 45 mph and that made for a bad day. I can't really complain about it because I got it at 135 or 140 and I never changed the oil in it at all I just run the hell out of it. Iv halled full size chevy vans and a e350 ford van with it. I gave it a hard life then it just had enough of it one day and then it dropped the back chain and that was all she wrote. To get back on the rd I'll have to redo the whole top end and mabey a few pistons and both heads

[@Dustinkendra075]

It’s a damn ranger, you want to haul something buy a 1/2 ton or something bigger. Bet you didn’t replace the u-bolts either! See you did full send on that shock bolt cause you couldn’t get it lined up properly.

[@jerkofalltrades5430]

Wow you have the worst luck with springs bud lol. Next time around I'd go air shocks/bags or just stick springs with an extra leaf in them.
