I own a 2001 Ford Ranger. I absolutely, positively love the truck, but I
have two problems that have been hard to solve.
The problems are intermittent, so when I go to the dealer the truck is
naturally on its best behavior.

I have a '95 Ranger XL with a 2.3L in 2wd. I would like to lift it up to 3
inches, hopefully without getting new I-beams.
Anyone have any info on whether this is possible and on differant ways of
doing it.

I have a 2000 Ford Ranger 2 WD manual transmission that when I shift it
makes this metal on metal sound. It doesn't happen everytime nor when I'm
parked and I run it through the gears. Anyone know what the problem might
be?

I have been wanting to remove the spark plugs on my V10. Can someone tell me
if they have any good tips to share on getting to the ones way in the back.

I have an '89 F-150 (5.0, 5 speed) which I bought new in '89.
A few weeks ago it started making a chirping sound (imagine a loud squeaky
bed spring) from under the truck all of a sudden.  That is, I drove it one
day no sound, next time I drove it I noticed the noise as soon as I ...

2001 Ranger XLT 4X4 four door extended-cab. Door ajar light and dome light
come on intermittently. I drive this vehicle about 130 miles a day and this
usually happens toward the end of the day. I assume there is a way to adjust
