Good morning TRS!
This coming Monday I will be removing the engine and transmission out of my Ranger, and putting in a different motor and transmission. My question is, if I disconnect the wiring harness from the truck, I then wont have to remove every electrical connection (sensors etc) until after I have the engine out, correct?
Second question, I can pull the engine+transmission out at the same time without disconnecting them correct? I will be installing a new clutch into the new engine+tranny, but was hoping to do that while its out of the truck as well, so I can just sort of yank it all out as one, and put the new stuff in as one. I feel like it might save a headache, if it's possible of course.
To anyone who has done this sort of thing before.. Any tips, hints, suggestions?
It's a 2000 3.0Flex Fuel 5 speed 4x4.
Thank you!
Scott
