302 Bronco Swap

[Schwinnstingray1964]

What is all needed to do a 302 Swap in my 92 XLT.

I have an 88 Bronco, 4wd, Runs and drives. And i want to take the 302 out of that, And drop it in the ranger, The ultimate sleeper.

Now i heard i need a t5 trans from a 5.0 Mustang? Is this true?

Am i gonna need to upgrade rear ends? Because i was seriously thinking about putting the bronco rear end in the ranger. Good idea?

Thanks, Schwinny.

Pics of both trucks later.

I definitely would with a manual trans.

Yeah, swap as much stuff as you can from the bronco so you don't have to buy it. Your gonna need a suspension and drive train upgrade to handle the power and weight of the 302. You'll need some special motor mounts and a bigger radiator and some other mods you can read it the swap thread. Good luck. You can follow my build thread because I am doing a v8 conversion from scratch. Good luck
