hey all , new to the forums but have been reading as much as possible for the last week , A friend of mine just gave a '92 Ranger Ext cab with the 3.0 V-6 and I have some questions .
From what I have read so far in the Tech Section, and my own checking the interchange stuff .
I CAN use 93 or 94 Tilt column out of an Explorer or another Ranger and direct swap it into my 92 with no mods right ?
I went to my local wrecking yard today and walked around for a bit . Found a decent pair of bucket seats and an intact center console in a 94 ext cab , that should also be a direct swap right ?
What about the body parts ? Im pretty sure as long as they are equal length I can swap on a 94 or up bed , what about the doors ? It looks to me like the door opening is close , but not quite and that the door sill is wider then my 92 .
Gauge cluster is also pretty much a direct swap with an Explorer right ?
Last one , I may have to ask this one in the Interior Section instead but ............ If I cant change the entire door to a newer one , well newer model inner door panels work ? I know it seem like a dumb question if they change the dimensions of the door itself like I just said but I want to be sure before I go spending money on stuff I cant use and cant return
Thanks to any that answer , I really want to fix this thing up as my Spring /Summer Project . Promise I'll take before and during pics as I make changes .
