I seem to be having difficulties finding much info on my 85 Bronco II 4x4 Eddie Bauer. From what I understand, in this table (http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/ManualTransmission.html) it says rangers in the year of my bronco II have the manual FM145, so I'll assume that means Bronco II also. I've got the 2.8l of course. The motor is about due for all new gaskets. So I could just keep my 2.8, regasket it and be done with it.
Or, I could potentially try and trade/sell a really nice dirt bike trailer I have to get an early 90s Explorer. So that way I can beef up axles and swap the 4.0. My issue is, I can't find anything about putting a 4.0 behind my transmission. I want to keep my current trans/tcase so I only have to deal with shortening the front drive line. And I want to avoid putting in an electric tcase too.
Anyone have any thoughts? If there is information on this, please let point me in the right direction.
Thanks for having a look
