1992 Ford Ranger Drivetrain Service

Your Ranger drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Ford, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your Ranger and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1992 Ford Ranger, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Ford's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

  • How does Ford drivetrain maintenance help save money? Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.
  • What are signs my Ford drivetrain is damaged? Noises toward the back of your Ford Ranger, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.
  • How often will I need Ford Ranger differential service? We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.
  • Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my Ranger? The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Ranger can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.
  • Is it possible to reset the Ranger malfunction warning light on my own? It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your Ranger, but it's important to resist the urge. The check engine light is designed to warn you of potential problems with your vehicle, and resetting the light without fixing the underlying issue could lead to further damage or safety issues. The best course of action is to bring your Ranger to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for diagnostics and repairs.
  • Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Ranger serious? If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your Ranger, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.
  • Does my Ranger transmission belong to the drivetrain system? The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your Ranger is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
