I saw on this thread http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/130_amp_alternator_upgrade.shtml that i can put a 130 amp alt on my 86 bII 2.9 if i cut the white wire on the plug but i don't have a white wire, i have one plug with 2 black wiress and one plug with a yellow wire and a green wire...
I just picked up an 86 b2 4wd with a newer 5spd trans, 89 2.9v6 manual hubs and tcase. The idiot that installed the new engine had some "interesting" ideas for wiring and eliminated the underhood fuse box and wrapped the wiring harness around the front output of the tcase, i found out about that...
I'm having a major problem with the driver side drum brake on my 89 ranger. the lever that works the adjuster wheel has broken twice. a little back story, po replaced shoes and line but broke bleeder valve, I went to put a new wheel cylinder in and when I pulled the drum off the hold down spring...
the headlight housing on my 89 ranger melted. will the housing from a 93 explorer work? I have access to a donor but its a 20 mile drive and it would be great if I could find out in advance.
I know the feeling, I was working 12 hour days 7 days a week, I went three months straight without a day off plus I was playing in a dart league three nights a week so I rarely got to bed before 1 and got up at 4:30. hell I got up about eight friday morning, worked in the yard and on the ranger...
this sucks, I replaced my front shocks with what were supposed to be factory replacements but they were damn near an inch and a half longer than the ones that were on it. I called autozone back and they said its the right part number and didn't want to exchange them for a shorter shock. since...
No worries about the jacking, I started it. my only real concern is about if my driveshaft will bolt up to the 8.8. I can't afford to start the swap just to findout I don't have everything I need to do it. so far from what I understand I just need the axle and an extra passenger side mounting...
probably 75% on road with a little open field/dirt road/ extremely light trail thrown in. don't want to do a transaxle, it will be a traditional rear drive layout. vw was my first thought on front suspension but don't know if it could handle the weight of a 4.0 up front. damn all this talk has...
I'm a redneck not an engineer so I usually overbuild everything and I'm a 300 pounder so I was taking that into account. got any ideas for a good donor front suspension? it will be awhile before I start on anything like this but its never too early to start collecting parts
I'm thinking much smaller than a chenworth, as close to gocart size as possible. I figure 200hp+/- in something weighing around 1200-1500lbs max could be fun and tubing is cheap enough. super short wheelbase like transmission almost connected directly to rearend short.

I'm planning to build a high compression high rpm screamer 2.3 after I take care of the susension and id like to keep the weight as low as possible so I'm not really to intersted in the bigger motor for this project but as soon as I get another welder I'm thinking of trying to build a 2wd buggy...
his 4wd doesn't work because he is too cheap to replace bad hubs and it needs a trans so he me told I could canabalize whatever parts I want including the 4.0 if I feel like dealing with 12mpg. with the available parts between the two vehicles could I deàl with the flange/ujoint incompatability...
a friend of mine has a 93 explorer automatic 4wd and is willing to trade me axles from my 89 2wd 5spd ranger. I know the ujoint is differnt and that my axle is spring over and his is spring under but I want a drop and he wants the lift. is there any way to swap them with little to no cash...
