Hey everybody, I know it's been forever since ive been on here, but I have a question. I have a 1992 toyota tercel 1.5 It burns a little oil at startup then the blue smoke goes away, I know that valve seals are a problem for these cars/motors, and I'm pretty sure thats what it is, but has...

Ok so I'm driving down 50 highway when all of a sudden the car acts like it's was put in nuetral and then It regains its power to the wheels for a few seconds and then it slips again and repeats the slippage maybe one more time, and by this time I am slowing down on the shoulder, of course I put...

Hi everybody, I unfortunatly had to get rid of my ranger, but I have a freind who offered me his 92'ish mitsubishi eclipse, It's really nice car for its age, the engine he believes was rebuilt at about 90,000 miles, and its got maximum 135,000 miles on it now, but the transmission(4 Speed...

I getting a "new" car,:yahoo:. It's a 1989 Pontiac Bonneville LE, White, only needs one new tire, and it has the buick 3800 EFI (bullitproof engine), 4-speed auto, all it needs is gas to run, has some minor problems, but it should pass inspection after I get the new tire, can't beat it for $300...

I know most of you have probably heard this song at one time or another, just thought I would tell you guys I found a link to the music video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4s0nzsU1Wg :icon_cheers: Enjoy....

Thanks, I hope some day I can try the idea, but with my ranger right now...not likley, lol. I wonder how one would get into the expedition business, thats got to be a dream job of sorts.

As far as space is concerned, have you ever thought about cutting holes (calculated ones) in the bed and cab on in the floor, welding in a box that sits below the floor, and puting a door on top of the box, lever with the floor? Kind of like Chrysler minivan's Stow N' go setup, but without the...

Hi everybody, I know I ask alot of questions, but this one I need pure advice on. Here is my situation, I have no rent to pay, or a family to support, I only have auto insurance and gas to pay for, but I have no job, I have applied many places, but things don't seem to work out, but I need $$$...

I was looking looking in to doing a 302 swap sooner or later(when enough $$$ flows in), and I have been trying to research it the best I could, but I still need some questions answered. I know I have asked about a 6.2 Det. Diesel, and a Chevy 350 swap, but I have figured out thats another RBV(s)...

I have been wanting to bolt a ranger v6 tranny to a ranger 4 cyl engine, but I heard that the v6(like 2.8,2.9,& 4.0) transmissions dont bolt up to the 4 cyl engines, so I got to thinking... you know how chevy trannys don't bolt up to B.O.P. blocks??? well why not copy the idea of an adapter...

Heres the deal, I found this really good deal on a ranger on CL for $150, the passenger side front side you can't put a tire on the spindle, but the three other wheels you can put tires on, but in order to get the truck home, I have to load it on a flatbed trailer, but without damaging the...

Hi I was just wondering if anybody might have any suggestions on where the build sheet might be on my ranger, I have looked under the seats and I cant find it there, I have heard it could be under the carpet, BUT I don't want to rip it up unless it need to. My truck is a 90' 2wd long bed, any...

I don't know if this would be the right forum for this or not, but I plan on doing a body lift on my ranger (90' 2wd Long bed) for better tire and off road clearance, but right now the money I have needs to go towards fixing my truck, and I ain't sure I would have enough for a commercial lift...

as far as fab skills, I really have never fabbed any thing metal, but I have seen numerous threads on here that give me a very good idea of it, plus I have a freind and an uncle who has fab skills and they both can weld. Although I have been trying to find a CHEAP, decent arc welder to learn on.

Oh crap I just remembered that guy also has an old f-series dually that he recently moved in front of the chevy, maybe I could ask him about the ford's front axle and about the chevys rear axle(I dont want to deal with dual wheels), could the ford front and chevy rear be dana 60's(the f-series...

I have a 2wd 90 ranger 2.3, and right now I am planning on a Dana 30(XJ, or similar) swap on the front, but theres a guy down the road from me that has had a Chevy/GMC C/K pickup sitting for a number of years, and I was thinking about saving up and offering him some $ for the axles and the...

Don't worry about thread jacking, that thread of yours has give me a little bit better idea of how I am planning on doing it! by the way your trucik doesn't look half bad for a 94, mines a 90 and at first glance it looks like something someone might take to the scrapyard (paint, clearcoat is...

I was even thinking just leave out 44 outers if the simplicty was maybe better than marginaly more strength(I don't know if d30 outers are stronger than 44 outers), oh and sorry, I didn't realize the d35 rear axle was a low pinion.

I was just saying that because the dana 30 would already be setup as a front (steerable) axle, and I have heard dana 35's (using just the center section) can hold up fairly well, and I thought the dana 30 and 35 had the same sized axle shafts and, if you used dana 44 outers (like some people do...
