    3.0 in a B2

    . Got B2 with a bad engine for dirt cheap. Now I can get a 3.0 out of a Aerostar for next to nothing. I know I will need the Computer, wire harness and a different tranny. Just checking if anyone has done this swap.

    Rod Bearings?

    Checked the oil in my new B2 and noticed that it was super thin. Changed the oil and now it has a slight Knock at around 2000 RPM and above. Sounds like a bad bearing somewhere in the block. Any ideas? This video is from before the oil change

    No power

    I just got the cleanest B2 I've ever seen. :yahoo: It's an '89 2WD automatic. Stole it for $300 and a shotty. That's the good. The bad is it has no power until it gets out of third gear. Then it's all good. I know it has the 4R44E tranny. Any hints on this issue would be great.

    Is it worth it

    Found a B2 for $700. Guy says it needs a throw out bearing. Should this be a deal breaker. The truck is 50 miles away and I don't want to waste time or money going ro look at it. From the pics it's in decent shape.

    Best bang for the buck?

    I am currantly working on putting a 300I6 in my B2. My question is what axles would hold up best for the best price. I know that the D28 and 7.5 that are in it now are going to explode as soon as I put the skinny pedal to the floorr.

    I rolled my B2 and the 2.8 has finally decided to clunk out on me. Since then I have been trying to decide what to do. Scrap or rebuild? I couldn't decide until I saw a 300 with trans for $100. This weekend i start on the tear out of the 2.8 and all the emissions garbage. I need some advice on...

    Ranger Cab on B2 Frame

    Has anyone done it? I flipped my rig over the weekend and totaled the body. Was thinking that this would be easier and better looking than hacking the body.

    Welded spiders?

    Got my self in some sticky situations lately and want some feedback non whether to weld the Spider Gears or not. I want an 8.8 but it's just not in the budget for now, and since I usually have my 7year old with me when I'm wheeling, getting stuck really blows. I can get the rear end welded for...

    I took the fam out on an excursion this afternoon and noticed that my B2 starts to idle at around 2500-3000 RPM(No Tach)as soon as I hit the dirt. But if I restart the engine it runs normally until I hit a rough spot. This isn't the first time I've noticed this and was wondering if anyone else...
