NOOOO NOT THE BII'S! There's so few around here! I hear ya man, getting into these vehicles and seeing them crushed is just sad like one legged orphan mini ponys that you want to tie a skateboard to and push out of the way of danger. lol
Freaking awesome!
I was given an '84 Ranger with a 2.8 (had been sitting for a few years) two years back while I was still taking automotive classes. When I got the truck, not a darn thing worked, from wipers, to brakes, to the engine, to you name it. Nine months of hard work and I got it on the road. Been driving it (20k miles) ever since, and recently took the automatic out and put in a 5 speed.
I do have one question. Is there a horn switch in that steering wheel? I have the same style steering wheel and it doesn't have any kind of switch or electrical anything in it. Yours is actually the first picture I've seen of the same wheel in a Ranger, that's why I ask.
The horn for that style should be in the steering column; multi-function switch controls turn signal (up or down), high beams (pulled), and horn (pushed in).
Huh, never would of guessed. Thanks! When I got the truck the PO went crazy with wires. It's a miracle I got everything else working the way that it should.
No problem! Not sure if you need this additional info or not, but the horn connector is (or should be) part of the harness which feeds the headlights/turn signals/parking light/NSS, and there should be connections for two horns, though I think most only have the one mounted by the battery.
