crossbreeding RBV's

[87Ranger2]

how hard would it be to throw all the 4x4 crap from a late 90"s exploder into my 87 Ranger??

also it has the electric t-case, how hard would that be to rig up?? i just want it to work..rednecking it would be fine.

Pretty sure Rangers used different mounting points for the front axle brackets between 2wd and 4wd. I'm sure it can be done, but it might not be a bolt in swap.

As for the T-case, you'd be better off finding a manual.

yeah, they are..i gottta switch the xmember, i just need to know if the exploder is close enough that it will work..this truck is a a scrapyard..so i can get it cheap.

Close enough ish.

Axles and stuff will work, not sure about the xmember.

 

[87Ranger2]

if i could get a pic of the xmember, could you guys tell me if it will work?
