no i meant go to pick n pull of something and remove some bushings, that's fairly new so there should be some of those trucks in the yard and they should have good bushings still!
unlike our 45 year old cars  i don't have any of those bushings BUT i do have a perfect hood and tailgate for a 2000+ ranger

reverse engineer them, how tall? outside diameter? inside diameter? you can use anything from shelf stock that's close, shim them up or cut them down

they have a body mount kit, that doesn't cover the rad core support mounts? lazy B's, they should break a leg figuring it out if they don't cover the application millions of those running around out there

Maybe look at Exploders and Sport-Trac Exploders as well.
Sport-Trac is a really a 4-door ranger
