5/10/2020. Ok. My original photobucket account was deleted. I tried to go back and add back the pictures that o think were there. Sorry of some of the posts get a little confusing. But trying my best lol


Hey guys. Long time no see. I'm back. And after more than 2 years. I'm tackling another ranger build. Engine and all. And yes, this one will be all ford :icon_thumby:

1990 ranger shortbed 2wd 2.3 5 speed. Got off my uncle for 500 and drove it 700 miles home :headbang:

Drivetrain is a 93 mustang ho 5.0 that's been rebuilt. Worked aluminum svo heads. Roller e303 cam. 96 f150 4.9 5-speed. 97 explorer 8.8 3:73 rear

So still gather parts and pics. But here's the truck how I bought it

Holley 600 cfm carb. Have vert mounts on it. Hei distributer. Tri y headers. Luk gold clutch set. And mating it to a 96 f150 m5r2 trans. (yes I know I need an oil filter adaptor lol)
