Anyone Swapped A 3.7 Into A 3rd Gen Ranger?

[Thanks47]

I'm thinking the 3.7 would be a good 100hp performance boost in a 3rd gen ranger along with the possibility of better fuel economy. Anyone tried or researched it?

I know it's been done in a first-gen.

At first I thought that fit better than I would've thought. Then I noticed the complete lack of a heater box. Wonder if they just avoid rain or have some other method to keep the window clear?

What would you rather have, heat or horsepower?

 

[Jim Oaks]

It can be done, but you need the whole donor vehicles to get the engine, trans, ECU, BCM, harness and steering wheel from.

and steering wheel?

damn, that's a deal breaker for sure
