My temp gauge never worked either, I just replaced the temp sending unit (about 10 bucks) and it works fine now. I assume there is a similar unit for oil.

Thanks for the answers, this is a 1997 ford ranger, not in the best shape so I am going to think about what to do. The roll on bedliner might actually make the truck look better.

Thanks

Bedliner

I was given a bedliner for my ranger but no hardware, what do I need to install it? I also have my toolbox that will have to sit on top.

Do I just run a few screws in it?

How did you get the old bushings out. Just ordered my front too, didn't come with my kit. On your rear shackle was it a metal bushing with a rubber core and a metal sleeve where the bolt ran through?

Re: Rear leaf shackle bracket rust

I bought the kit off ebay for a 1997, but the bushing that came with it dont seem large enough, did you have that problem? Like it was missing a rubber piece to go around the bushing?

Thanks
