Anyone know where to get new vavle covers from ? The one I have are rusted in the corners and are in bad shape. May have to take a trip to the junk yard but would really like new ones. Thanks.

Got my intake and valve covers cleaned up and painted today as well as new injectors installed. Have the heads at the shop getting seated valves and valve seals done. Slowly getting there.

The only reason why I wanna go with the auto hubs is because the new rims that I have have caps that cover the locking hubs so auto locking would be nice but not necessary

So today I wanted to try and swap the auto locking hubs on the 1994 Ford explore onto a 1988 Ford ranger but there not the same. The spindles on the explorer are bigger than the Ranger. Dose anyone make auto locking hubs for the 1988 ranger ?

So I ordered a set of headers that say it fits the 2.9 but from what I have read the 2.9 and 4.0 are the same so I’m hoping they will fit good without to much Modifications

I was actually considering that but really didn’t want to open another can of worms.

Decided to put the 4 inch suspension lift kit on this weekend. Definitely looks good. Think it more like 6 inches but with everything off I’m shore it will drop back down with everything back on

Got her welded up and sealed up

I know but sacrifices had to be made

Dash mounts I’m talking about.

So today after work I started to mock up the dash. The mounts uptop of the dash are slightly different but I’ll fab something up to fix that. Other than that it looks like it’s gonna work.

For those who want to know if a firewall out of a 94 explorer will fit in an 88 ranger, It will. Some trimming here and there and a few tack welds and seam sealer will look like new. I had to cut out the old firewall because of rust.

So if I do my own exhaust System and do cat deletes, will I have a problem with not enough back pressure ? Also what’s a good sounding muffler ? I really don’t won’t it to sound like a pissed off bumblebee or a rice rocket or a retarded walrus. Just saying lol

dose anyone know if that offer some headers and a nice duel exhaust set up for the 4.0 ohv ?

Started to take the 4.0 out the Explorer.
