I have this 4 cylinder turbo diesel from a '85 Dodge D50 (Mitsubishi). From everything I can find online it is the same engine Ford used in the Rangers from '85 to '87.

My question is, will motor mounts from a late '80's Ranger bolt to the frame rails of a '93? Are the frames the same width? I figured others may have run into this while swapping motors between the different generations of Ranger.

Thanks

as long as you match 4x4 to 4x4 and 2wd to 2wd the crossmembers from gen 1 to gen 3 are the same
