so im gonna swap a 4.0 into my '84 ranger and i know the OHV 4.0 goes in really easy, but is it the same with the SOHC? i would rather have the SOHC because of the performance gains but if its gonna a lot of fab work id settle for the OHV 4.0... anyone have input? i look through the tech library...

so as far as swapping a 4.0L into my '84 ranger, is there any especially sought after years or models i should look for? and i know its supposed to be a pretty simple swap from the 2.8 to the 4.0 but has anyone had any major problems with it? any help is appriciated!:icon_thumby:

im not really sure if im posting this in the right spot.. but does anyone know where i can buy a full new wiring harness for my 2.8? the truck is an '84 4x4 v6 if that helps.... any help is appriciated:icon_thumby:

I have a question about H1 beadlock wheels... Is there anywhere that I can get them in a bolt pattern to fit a Dana 30? Any info is appreciated!

so ive seen a lot of people on TRS with banners that say things like '3/4 ton SAS group" or "V8 swap group"... things like that, and i was wondering how you get em?.... and if i do get one, what would a d30 be considered? either 1/4 ton or half ton id assume.... thanks for any help:icon_thumby:

idk if im the only one whose noticed this, or maybe im the only one who likes to complain about this kinda stuff:thefinger: but i havent seen ford ads on TRS! we need more ford ads. not honda, ram, jeep and yota

anyone have a picture of a gen 1 ranger with a gulf oil livery? just curious haha

has anyone ever heard of a person getting a b2 and extending the frame to fit a short bed from a ranger? i think thatd be a super unique truck to see:D youd have to cut out the rear wheel arches and fill it in so its flat and then i dont see what else youd have to do to make it look good...

so does anyone know of a set up for a small cab like that that will preform kinda middle range but not cost too much? iv got my truck wired for a four speaker system atm, each door and two behind the seat but only the doors are hooked to speakers... any help is greatly appreciated!:D

so here is my solution to a common problem, my 33" tires wouldnt fit under the factory wheel wells so i decided to make em 3 inches taller and 3 inches longer while still maintaining the stock look.:icon_welder: so first i cut the fenders out in big squares with plenty of extra to trim if i...

iv been putting this off for wayyy to long now, iv been builing my ranger for just under a year now so iv got a lot of pictures and information to throw down haha so im 16 and this is my first truck, its an '84 single cab long bed v6 with an auto tranny and this is it on day one on the trailer...

hey, iv got a d30 in the front of my 84 ranger and the coils i am currently using arent preforming off road as well as id like... i dont know what they came from, just had em laying around the shop and they fit right... what are you guys using for coils? id like to keep about a 4 inch lift. any...

My c5 won't shift! Just took it for the first road test today and it only stays in first while in drive, I can manually shift to 2nd though... I've checked the modulator vacuum and it's got great vaccum and it's an almost brand new modulator... Any thoughts would be helpful thanks!

but yours is 10 years newer, doesnt it have a u joint on the case? mine has a slide joint and the local driveline shop said that cv joints dont work with a slide joint

thats true, idk im just speculating on all the things i could do... but i think i found a place that has u joints that you can swap with the slip joint on the transfer case and that would make it able to have a double u joint and im hopeing that that will fix the problem

ok cool thanks for the info, ive also got this other idea that to me sounds like it might end up with a pretty trick set up... so the cherokee came with a brand new rebuilt tranny/transfer case and i was thinking that maybe if advanced adaptors made an adaptor for that tranny to mate with my 2.8...

ok so i have a low pinion dana 30 from a 96 jeep grand cherokee and im having trouble with getting the driveshaft to not be too steeply angled... ive got an 84 ranger 4x4 with the stock transfer case, it has the splined slip on connection and i cant figure out how to get it to work with the new...

yeah it is underpowered... i have a 302 that im planning on throwing into it in the future, also my SAS is going great, im getting the 4 link stuff worked out today

its got a roarin 2.8 baby:thefinger: i got it boared out and all rebuilt by daves preformance in fresno CA, its hooked up to a C5 tranny and its got some sorta flowmaster cat-back exhaust that was on it wwhen i picked it up but boy sdoes it sound mean
