I wanted to do a 302 swap into my ranger and have decided that the frame is not up to the added weight of a 302/np435/203/205 doubler. My frame already looks like swiss cheese and has had a cracked frame repair along with rusted out coil buckets ect. The way the ranger is now would work as a...
My 85 bronco donor vehicle died on me last nite while running, when I went to restart it, there was no electrical power anywhere. I hooked up a battery charger and it was fully charged. I have no power to the interior, lights ect the truck wont even click or anything. The only thing Ive...
Has anyone been up there lately and ran the whole trail from Spring creek to Georgetown via the rock garden, wedge ect? I went up there today and ran the trail with my good buddy and his jeep-I know its a jeep but hes a real good guy to wheel with. Anyways that place has gotten pretty nasty...
I picked up a 85 bronco yesterday for dirt cheap with a excellent running 5.0 fuel injected to swap into my 85 ranger :yahoo:. The plan was to pull the motor and have a well powered ranger. Now my buddy got me thinking about putting the ranger cab on the bronco frame and running it that way...
I need to take a 92 ford taurus on a trailer to the auto crusher and the vehicle I was gona use is unavailable. So my question is could a 97 f150 4.6 auto with 3.55 gears haul the taurus on a dual axle trailer about 50 or so miles without too much stress on the f150? My truck does have a...
Reciently i scored these arms at the local yard. After finding out who made them, i was urged to plate the ears that have a tendency to crack off. While i was at it, i boxed in the arms with the scrap i had laying around. These things are quite robust now and i want to get them under the...

As the title says I got rid of a long time friend today. I've lately been needing a larger truck to haul crap ect around and my old 99' ranger just wouldn't have cut it. I put the truck forsale on thurs and today a guy came and looked at it and drove off with it. I asked kbb value witch was...
Took the truck up to the hills today to do a lil wheeling and all was good and having a great time. There was a huge snow drift that only one other person went through- it was a exo'd supercharged cherokee and after countless attempts, i powered through it. None of my friends wanted to even...
Im on the fence right now if i wana tbi my truck or duraspark and i'm leaning towards durapark because i wouldnt need a new fuel pump and dual tank selectors and return fittings ect ect. But my question is, has anyone successfully gotten their duraspark 2.8 to pass emissions without major...

So i'm planning on doing a tbi swap on my old 2.8L and have most of everything i need expect knowing how to plumb the fuel return to the dual tanks. If anyone would have any idea please let me know. My idea was to use a inline frame hi psi pump and then some sort of selector to send return fuel...
My 99 3.0 has been stumbling almost surging lately and yesterday the CEL came on and i got po174- bank 2 lean. I'm sure i know how to diagnose this but just want to make sure i'm not forgetting anything to inspect.
