It is specifically designed as an exact fit replacement for the 1998 Ford Ranger, featuring an 8.8-inch Ford-built ring gear with a 3.55 ratio. This assembly is equipped for 9-inch drum brakes and utilizes 28 spline axles, operating without Posi Traction. The axle type is semi-floating, and it comes with the axle cover included, though axle fluid is not provided.\n\nDuring the remanufacturing process, each axle assembly undergoes thorough inspection for straightness, cracks, and surface wear. All internal components, including ring and pinions, internal gears, and carriers, are meticulously inspected and tested. To ensure optimal performance and longevity, all bearings and seals are replaced, and gears are examined for proper tooth contact patterns and correct rolling torque. The gear backlash is precisely set to guarantee adequate gear lubrication and quiet operation, while axle tubes are checked for OEM standards of straightness. Zumbrota employs a unique hydro-blast rinse and sandblasting procedure, followed by a proprietary shot-enticed deep cleaning process for superior remanufacturing.","brand":"Zumbrota Drivetrain","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52870799327544,"sku":"RAA435-1931A","price":1816.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/remanufactured-rear-axle-assembly-3-55-ratio-28-spline","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
