Project is so named because I am using FULL WIDTH 60’s front and rear.
Picked up a 91 ranger ext cab.
-Has a 3.0, which I will be swapping out for a 5.0.
-M5OD trans, which I will be swapping out for a ZF5
-And is 2wd, which I will be doing a SAS with a D60 front and rear. D60 is from a 79 F-350, not sure what the rear is from, but it has 35sp axles and discs.
-Deleting A/C, but keeping heat.
Did well I’d say, as there is easy access to swap the motor , and since it will be an off road toy, I have no intentions of fixing the dent in the bed.
I’m unsure what type of transfer case I will be running. Most likely either and Atlas or one from Behemoth Drivetrain.
I’m in B’ham AL, and always enjoy a fellow enthusiast to come by and swap stories
Also, what I will not be using will be sold to help fund other parts of the build. Let me know what/if you need. Prices are very cheap.
-Rims are NOT for sale.
-3.0 doesn’t turn… so I would assumed locked up. Will sell all or parts.
-M5OD seems to shift fine, but have not pulled it to inspect.
-Rear is a 7.5 with 3.54 gears.
I will update everyday that I do something…. No matter how small. And look for pics. Seems no one else had made the Explorer 5.0 to 92 Ranger swap before.
