This is likely what I'm going to do. I've done it before but they are a B*TCH, even with the stupid clamp tool.

You guys are no help 😂 Googling and checking dormans site, I only get hair line clips that don't match at all. Dorman recommends the 800-032 but it doesn't match. The 021 looks closer but they say that's for some VW.

Hope this is alright in this forum, couldn't find a better spot. This trucks an 03 ranger with the 4.0, completely stock at 147k miles. It started leaking fuel a few weeks ago and just got bad enough for me to rip the bed off. I found one of the smaller lines at the pump has a little piss...

Well, I know it's unlikely, but if anyone has a blown 4.0 with the timing cover off and would be kind enough to drill out the two plugs on the passenger side to see where they lead, that'd be incredible. I can borescope from the inside and see the upper one has a short channel, but then it turns...

Hey all, just picked up this truck and who knows whats been done to it. 1996 4.0 2x4. The trans tailshaft has (what appears to be) the cable operated VSS installed, except without the cable. There is a 2 pin wire connector plugged in here as well, but the cable port has tranny fluid dripping...

Hello all, I'm new here. I just bought my first Ranger, after three 5.8L Ford Bronco's. My friend asked me to look at it because it was shaking at speed and idle, after various tests, it looks like it needs head gaskets. She cant afford it so I bought it out from under her... SO. Onto the...
