So I want a 302 and full size axles under my ranger. Question is, would it be easier to change out the engine, tranny, transfer case and axles with what I got now, or put my ranger body on something that already has that stuff such as an F series truck or Bronco? And I dont want to just go buy a f150or bronco and drive that because I like my ranger, but im sure you guys already know that.
 
Okay, if you swap motor trans tcase into your ranger, you'll have to do heater box mod, frame mod for tcase, splice a few wires for your engine to work, depending on what year your donor is, you may have wiring for your trans as well.
If you swap ranger body onto F series frame, you have heater box mod, same wiring issues, but instead of a frame mod for tcase, you'll have frame mods to make to get the body to fit (mod/fab body mounts), either way, with that setup you'll have fabbin to do

I'd say put a v-8 in your Ranger.
