When changing front shocks on a 91 2wd Ranger where should you place your jack stand and where should I put my hydraulic floor jack to initialy lift the front end?

You need to place the floor jack under the actual beam of the car frame. This is where 2 jacks may have to be put into play. You will need to jack up the car high enough to be able to release the old shocks from their bases. You may have to put a jack on blocks to jack the car high enough to achieve this. Put your stands on very stable blocks under the frame as well.

Are hydraulic shocks better than gas shocks?
Gas shocks are considered better and are usually more expensive. They use pressurized nitrogen to absorb shock, as opposed to hydraulic which uses an oil. The oil in a hydraulic shock may foam under heavy use and lose efficiency.
What is the difference between hydro shocks and nitro shocks?
Hydraulic and gas charged shocks have the same amount of oil, the difference is the gas charge. A hydraulic shock has equal amounts of dampening force in both directions. Gas charged shocks usually are pressurized with Nitrogen. Hydraulic shocks have a tendency to fade as the oil heats up and gets agitated by the shock, creating air bubbles. These air bubbles cause the shocks dampening ability to fade. The nitrogen charge keeps the air bubbles under control, so they can not affect the shocks performance. A gas shock will extend on its own due to the gas charge. General rule of thumb is that hydraulic shocks ride better, nitrogen charged shocks are stiffer, but last longer and don't have shock fade problems.

Is a bicycle an hydraulic machine?
Depends. Most bikes don't have any hydraulic components, but some have hydraulic brakes. Usually disc brakes, but there are at least two models of hydraulic rim brakes as well. And it could easily be argued that suspension bikes with oil shocks are hydraulic in design.
