A new 8" positrac carrier is going to run you around $600 or more with the ride, and you'll still have a relatively weak 8" unit. Link to Summit, for example - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/yg...view/make/ford
You might be money ahead if you can find a positrac 8.8" or 9" with track that's close to what you have and change out the mounts to fit your Ranchero.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

I had to go to the doctor's this morning. He told me that my sugar was too high so I came home and put it on a lower shelf. I feel better already.
