Hmm... just bought a 91 Ranger beater. Think it might look good with the pony wheels....

Looks like $35 total from the local junk yard. How do I get the rear axles off?

there diff is offset so the correct length on the ranger rear ends is the driver side, the correct length on the aerostars is the passenger side
