I was under the impression by that picture you posted that you already had the 4.0l in? Was that a picture of another truck or something?

I think that was a picture of it in the donor. IIRC he was waiting on an F150 before he started tearing into the engine bay. Needed other wheels.

Wow it has been a while since i have been on here. Well i read throught his entire thread and all i can say is DANG I remember when i first saw your truck on youtube and i just thought to myself "That is what i want". My last ranger went bust after i blew up the 3v 4.6L engine i had in it. But now you got me on the hunt for a 94-03 ranger to mod out. I mean dude this truck has been through hell and back and is still running strong. I hope to find one soon to start on a project like this.

Let me know how well the F150 tows the Ranger around when you get the chance to try it out. I've been looking around at them a lot lately, and after I get done with my 3000 mile per month commute I'm going to pick one up. I'm mostly looking at 2000ish F150's with the 5.4, 4x4, supercab & stepside beds. I wouldn't be towing my Ranger much, but I would be towing my Nissan around to have the frame welded and some cage work done plus picking up parts trucks for the Nissan/Ranger and maybe getting a BII to offroad. The Nissan is roughly the size of a Ranger, probably smaller and definitely lighter since it doesn't have a bed.

For sure, just bought a tow hitch for it today..I will be towing the ranger soon to get it sand blasted. SO far I love the truck has a ton of power, even with the 305/75/16 mud terrains I put on it with stock gears. Gunna do 3.73s or 4.11s whenever I have the time. What are you doin to your Nissan?
