Zumbrota Drivetrain Reman Complete Axle Assembly 8.8" Ring Gear Ford Ranger 1998 3.73 Ratio - RAA435-1931E

If you're on the hunt for a reliable axle assembly, let me tell you about the Zumbrota Drivetrain Axle Assembly. These aren't just your run-of-the-mill rebuilt axles; they’re crafted with a serious focus on quality and detail. Each assembly goes through a rigorous inspection process to ensure everything is straight and free from cracks or wear. You want your ride to be solid, right? Well, Zumbrota makes sure of that.

When you dive into the internals, you'll find that every component is checked and tested. We're talking about ring and pinions, gears, clutches, and carriers—all given the once-over to make sure they’re up to snuff. And don't worry about the small stuff; all bearings and seals are replaced, so you can hit the road with confidence. The gears are inspected for optimal tooth contact patterns, and they even measure rolling torque in inch pounds to ensure everything is set up just right for longevity.

Now, let’s get into some specifics. This axle assembly is a semi-floating type, and it comes with a cover included. Just a heads-up, though—fluid isn’t included, so you'll need to grab that separately. The attention to detail doesn’t stop there; the axle tubes are inspected to meet OEM standards, so you know they’re straight as an arrow.

The cleaning process is something else, too. Zumbrota uses a hydro-blast rinse along with sandblasting to bring all parts back to a factory finish. This isn’t just for looks; it helps with performance and durability. Plus, the correct rolling torque is established to keep everything running smoothly and quietly.

  • Axle Type: Semi Floating
  • Cover Included: Yes
  • Fluid Included: No

As for fitment, this assembly is a perfect match for:

  • Ford Ranger 1998
  • Mazda B3000 RWD 1998-2003
  • Mazda B3000 2004-2007

So if you're rolling in a 1998 Ford Ranger or one of the Mazda B3000 models, this Zumbrota axle assembly is ready to get you back on the road without the worry of a sketchy rebuild. Trust me, it’s a solid choice for anyone who values reliability and performance.

The shipping fee quoted in the shopping cart includes transportation of the product to your location as well as the return of your core to the manufacturer.
