I have a 1990 Ranger, Extended cab,5-speed, but motor is messed with high kms. Just woundering if a 2.8 carbuted would bolt in my truck and if i could use the same wire harness. Right now there is a 2.9l fuel injected Replies to this message: northga (Aug 16, 2007 4:58 pm) kcram (Aug 16, 2007 5:06 pm) northga (Aug 16, 2007 6:33 pm)

Hello everyone. I have an under powered 1984 Ranger 4x4. It has a four inch lift, 31 inch tires, Carburated 2.8 with a 5 speed trans. I have two engines choices, which would be best to use? I have a 1990 Aerostar 4.0 and an 1990 Tbird SC with a 3.8 supercharger. Any helpfull info would be great. Thanks
#4 of 81 diesel ranger by jhknight Jun 28, 2007 (4:21 pm)
I believe that back around 1983 there was a diesel Ranger? I would like to swap out my thirsty 4.0 in my 1999 (glug glug) Or maybe an Isuzu turbo diesel....
#5 of 81 Gas to deisel swap by dangerranger1 Jul 09, 2007 (7:01 am)
This might sound a little strange and very time consuming but i got the time. I want to swap my 1997 ford ranger (gas) engine with a deisel engine. If anyone knows what type of deisel engine would fit or other things that would need to be changed in this process please let me know!

#7 of 81 '94 6cylinder to '97 4cylinder by tally_pants Aug 15, 2007 (9:06 am)
just wanted to know if it would be possible to take the engine from a 94 ranger xlt (automatic, reg cab, 2wd) and put it in a 97 ranger (standard, reg cab, 2wd) both vehicles are just stock. friends want engine in his 97 so he will have a six cylinder standard and not a four cylinder. thank you very much

Replying to: dangerranger1 (Jul 09, 2007 7:01 am) i was actually thinking about the same exact thing. im not sure what can fit. i wonder if it would be possible to put a 24v cummins in. my friend has a 1984 dodge d50 with a 2.3 turbo diesel. but i dont want a little 4cyl. my 4.0 does pretty good for now, but i would like a cummins 24v, or a 7.3 powerstroke.

Replying to: jtglowniak (Aug 15, 2007 2:36 pm) Putting a Cummins or Powerstroke in a Ranger... that's just asking for trouble. Dry weight of those engines is around 1000 pounds - your suspension would never last.   kcram - Pickups Host Replies to this message: jtglowniak (Aug 15, 2007 11:01 pm)
