Got on eBay last night after work and bought a 91 Ranger and 97 Explorer EVTM manual. Both should be here this week and then I’m gonna start my harness splices.

91 Ranger EVTM showed up yesterday, and today, I went and harvested a 2000 Mountaineer engine bay harness at my local PAP.

Guess I’ll start figuring it out from here….

Nothing new today. Still waiting on my 97 EVTM to show up.

Thinking of harvesting the inner fenders from my 03 parts truck so that all the air box and such will fit where it should.

How hard would the fenders and such from the Gen II be to make fit the 03 inner fenders?

Sat down and started figuring out what all the pins go to on my 5.0 engine harness.

Particularly connector # C115F. It’s the big black square connector that is the only connector that doesn’t plug into the engine or transmission.

I thought of the same thing. I will most likely write it down or draw a rough sketch of the “made harness”

I’m deleting a lot of things like A/C and stuff… so hopefully it won’t be as bad as it may seem.
