Q: Can I swap steering columns? 1996 FORD Ranger
CAN I SWAP A STEERING COLUMN FORM A 1990 FORD RANGER TO A 1996 FORD RANGER
My car has an automatic transmission.
Hello - Probably not. The model was redesigned for 1993, and it’s likely the steering column changed at that point. I would check with local recycle companies, and Ford Ranger internet forums for advice from others who may have faced this issue. Good luck!
