I’ve got a 1994 ford ranger v6 five speed manual, it’s throwing codes because it’s older than me by 10 years lol. I’m pretty mechanically inclined but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do a “Key on engine on” test, the cel comes on a second or two after starting. Any advice on how to...
I got an 88 ranger 2.3 I'm trying to fix
Heads cracked
4 plug 2.3s are getting harder to find
I can buy a rebuild for 7-8 hundred
I can get a new bare head for 400, using that and the parts for the old one I imagine I can have it rebuilt.
I'm also looking at alternatives.
An 8 plug head from 89...
Truck will stall immediately after starting. Unless I unplug MAF. Then it will run solid for a minute or two…until idle goes rough and then stalls out. Looking for advice.

The username is based on my old 92', she unfortunately lost the fight with time. What I am finally posting about and looking for some help here and there on (I am far from a mechanic) is my 2000 xlt. 4x4, 3.0 and the kicker. Only 90000 on her, about 4k of which are mine since getting her...
Anybody have any experience/tips or tricks cleaning them? Thinking about taking it off and maybe soaking and pressure washing it. I have a some minimal experience working on my own truck but am no mechanic. I just dumped a good bit of money into my ranger with a good ol’ boy mechanic just to...

Im interested in buying the truck and 'dropping in' a 2.3l turbo but I cant seem to find confirmation if the stock manual transmission will bolt up to the 2.3l...
Hey guys, I'm new to this forum. I've wanted to buy a ranger for some time now, and the time is now! I just need some opinions and advice on buying used before I take the plunge.
Right now I'm looking at two trucks- a 2003 Edge with crew cab, 4x4, v6 4.0 L, auto trans, with tow package and...
Hi, I found a ranger on craigslist, and with the pictures it is looking decent. In this craigslist ad https://gainesville.craigslist.org/cto/5742481942.html the owner mentions a cracked transfer case. With it being a 4x4 auto would it be something that I can do in the garage with only a few...
Needed a truck and found an '07 ranger. I was going to get a full size and tact it out, but cant afford a full size. So i did some research on what all i could do to a ford ranger and saw pre-runner. So my question is what all goes into a ford ranger pre-runner project? Where I do I start? This...
I have been looking for a truck on craigslist for months, everytime I find what seems to be a good deal I either get no response or it falls through. Right now I am looking at an 88 ford ranger that is about 3 hours away from me. The truck looks to be in pretty good shape but the guy is asking...
I've got an 86 Bronco II 4x4 that I'm looking to replace the current Toyo Koygo TK-5 manual transmission in (broken teeth on one gear). I've found a M50D off an 89 4x4 Ranger and was wondering if it would fit/work without extra hardware? Any advice would help!

Just figured I would make a thread here for all the interior mods I plan on doing to both get some advice / find out where to get stuff at and to show people what I'm doing to my ranger.
As of right now nothing much has been done to it. And I have no pics right now, can get those tomorrow.
I...
Hey everyone. I'm new to TRS and I'm looking for some advice on how to proceed with some of the planned modifications to my 2000 Ranger 2WD. I'm wanting to make it into somewhat of a prerunner style truck. Much the style of Founder Jim Oakes' TRS2. I'm not sure where to begin, my truck is...
I just picked up a 93 Ranger 4.0 4x4. It has a M5R1 in it. When I go to shift in to first sometimes it catches and sometimes it doesnt. When it does catch and I engage the clutch again 4 out of 5 times it will come out of gear. If I get second to catch and let off the gas a little sometimes if...
