To replace the rear axle on a 1999 Ford Ranger, start by safely lifting the truck and securing it on jack stands. Remove the rear wheels and brake components, then disconnect the driveshaft, brake lines, and any suspension components attached to the axle. After supporting the axle with a jack, remove the mounting bolts, and carefully lower the axle from the vehicle. Install the new axle by reversing the removal steps, ensuring all components are properly reconnected and torqued to specifications.
