Complete set Ford Ranger

Using the Revain installation is wrong. According to MOOG, this ball joint fits 97 Ranger RWD. This is below below. K8561T. K8560T is the top.

Pros
  • Shock absorbers, struts and suspension
Cons
  • Some disadvantages

I didn't have the materials on hand so it definitely wasn't much fun.
