normally, I'd say
ranger body on to bronco II frame.
like all the other crusty old TRS'ers. However, I'm in a generous mood tonight....:D

It can, and has been done. Brian/Nightkrawler had a buildup thread on broncoii.org for the "Branger", but the forums are in the process of moved, so I can't get a link. There is a video of him rolling it on youtube though, search for "evans creek bronco roll"

Here's Maverick's "B2R": http://www.therangerstation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1485


Usually, the rear cab mounts need to be modified to accomidate the ranger cab, among other little things.

I know there's more out there, I'll keep looking. that's what I got for now...
 
hey thanks alot. i did try searching but it didnt come up with anything maybe i was searching for the wrong thing or something. yeah i seen brians video of the roll over. he had a build thread of the swap but as you said the site has been down since... saturday i think... thanks alot ill check out the links.
 
now that you mention it, I seem to recall seeing pics of it somewhere....I thought he just chopped the entire rear off the ol' BII body...
 
Oh, im still around. Just not as much as before, this term classes are abundent and not easy. Haven’t been wheelin as much as I usually do either, and that is not the way I like it but I cant really help it:mad:

As for the Ranger cab swap, it is really strait forward. If the years are somewhat close then the wiring is cake. Just disconnect the computer and pull that harness through the fire wall and unplug the main plug on the driver side on the fire wall. Then once the ranger cab is on put the computer harness back through the fire wall of the ranger and plug comp back in. Then plug the main harness in on the driver side and bam, your done. That’s all I had to do.

As for cab mounts all four front mounts line up, the two most back ones are the only ones that need to be modified. The mounting point on the ranger cab is higher then that of the BII.

If you want some pics take a look at my cardomain. Clicky is in my sig

You can kind of see my rear mount in this last pic. If you want anything else just let me know.
