83 ranger diesel 5 spd?

Thanks, sounds like it would be a big pain to keep running as parts are extremely hard to find. So far I've only found 1 Diesel Ranger and it was in extremely sad shape, lot more than I could afford to repair, and in worse body condition than my Bronco 2. Maybe I should look into a 4bt swap into my Bronco 2 LOL. Only thing stopping me is my empty pocket book.

a 2.3 diesel will swap into your truck. As I'm sure you know they were an option for a few of years. I am also told that the 2.3l is still manufactured in different variants.
