I found a holy grail piece for me today- A 2.3 Lima 4WD M5OD with a manual transfer case, 40 minutes from my house, for 80 bucks. This is a big step towards my long term plan of building the world's first 4WD 2.3 extracab ranger. Seems like it sat outside for a while but I figure even if i need to rebuild it it beats my original plan of cobbling together a 2.3 4WD transmission from a 2.3 2WD and a 3.0 4WD. Overall, Im stoked.
