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...

What if you took a Dana 30 front axle(Jeep), and ground off the welds at the pumpkin, and replaced it with a dana 35 (jeep rear axle) pumpkin, then maybe put dana 44(full width) outers on it wouldn't that be pretty strong?:icon_welder:

Had a question, I have '90 ranger 2.3 that is believed to have anywhere from 312,xxx to 412,xxx miles on it, and I was going to swap a chevy 350 in it but I think now I will do that on down the road in my next ranger(or rbv), and I would like to rebuild the 2.3, BUT that aint in the budget...

Here's the deal, I have asked around on this forum, and I think I will put a dana 30 (jeep one) and yes I know how vulnarable they are, but I plan on doing the swap when I can afford it, what I plan on doing is EITHER swapping a 4wd transmission into it, OR doing a divorced tcase on the back of...

Ok here it is, for a long time I have wanted a V8, well I know I had started a thread asking about a Detriot deisel swap, but that may be a little ways down the road, and I have a friend who says I can have an old chevy 350 and a TH350 Trans. that needs rebuilt, well I looked up a rebuild kit...

Me and my dad were on a trip recently and on the way we hit a deer, well it totaled the hood, radiator, front lights, and bent the core support. We put a new hood, radiator, and lights in, and bent the core support back in place. But ever since we hit the deer, the key won't turn back past ACC...
