Hello from Poland . My Ranger Edge Restoration

[ekrampitzjr]

Hi, I just bought those corners today for 45 $ each. Just waiting for transport to Poland.

This is 3.0 Vulcan Engine , its under construction now Heads are cracked , pistons and rings needs to be replaced, and cylinders remachined. I hope it will be worked. Bottom end is in mint condition.

Is this any rewiring diagrams for tail lamps to EU conversion? Or should I buy trailer converter to separate turn and brake wires?

Sounds as though the engine overheated. You should look at replacing the radiator, because the existing one is probably clogged.

A trailer converter might be the best solution for the rear lamps. By the late 1990s I believe some of the lighting functions were controlled with electronic modules, and changing those would be a problem.

Keep us up to date! We're looking forward to seeing your progress!

I agree

Agreed, great seats!

The new engine parts look pretty good too. I'm looking forward to seeing more.

I just can't get over the seats lol.

Feel like making another set? my truck doesn't need much... but a set of imported European seat covers would definitely put it over the top

I want those cushy seats, mmm, mmm, nice.

I'm a bit late with this reply, sorry
1999 ( 1998 ?? ) Rangers have a separate yellow for the rear turn signal so there are factory wiring diagrams for that.

Nice color on the truck. Welcome to the site.

Awesome progress. Nice work on the seat covers.

Hello again, after a couple of months finally Ranger is running. I had to do remachine heads again, cause of huge oil consumption. I realized , that the valve seals wasn't problem. The reason was huge gap between valves an steams. Thanks to my friends from another shop for fast replacing stems and valves . Now engine is working perfect. Now i'm waiting for some vacation to start withe frame and body work . Some videos from progress:
