Default 2003 ford ranger manual shift extention

I just stopped by a shop to get a quote on a body lift...
Turns out, not sure if the manual shifter extension will work because its rated for the years 1983-2000

Any one have any troubles with installing this part??? Performance Accessories 3700

It will work just fine.

That part #3700 is right out of the install manual for the 3" body lift on 2001-2011 Ranger's.

Wrong.


Under $200 & a solid day of work is much better.

That said, with shop labor that almost sounds cheap (if that includes the lift).

Default Re: 2003 ford ranger manual shift extention

Let me do the math..
Body kit $159
Shift extension $29
Total of $189


Install price $816

Hmm u can save $627 by doing it yourself..and the satisfaction of knowing that u did it yourself and knowing its done right is "priceless"

Use the $627 for other mods...or save it for a suspension lift.

You can do it in your driveway...and who the hell doesnt have the basic wrenches and sockets!! The only special tool needed is really the torx bit for the stock bed bolts.
Hell all the tools needed cost less than $50...

If u dont own at least a simple cheap socket and wrench set..u dont need to own a truck!
