Did you have the Ranger Emblem done up special with the blue backround? I've only ever seen red ones.

had to pull out the axles and put in new Timken wheel seals. The seals were shot. Here's some random pics. I'm planning on painting the rear axle gloss black all said and done.

I like that Ranger grill inset. The blue color gives it distinction. Might be a "one and only"

Holy smokes. That must not be fun to sand that rear-end lying under the truck. I look forward to seeing it painted. :-D
