My friend's folks used to have one of these back in the day, not sure of the exact year but it was one of the early ones and 2wd. They called it "The Growler" because it made more noise than it had power.

My other friend had a 2.9 Ranger, and it did have quite a bit of power and was very reliable.

There may be different rear axle ratios available from the Bronco II/Ranger that are probably direct bolt-in.
