Can't Ford Explorer engine mounts be used in a Ranger? From what I have seen at salvage yards, the Ranger 2WD frame is different than the Ranger 4WD, but the Explorers look to be the same frame for 4WD and 2WD. I would think the Explorer mounts would fit the Ranger 4WD?
Just buy a a Ford Explorer V-8
do they make a 4×4 tranny and trandfer case for these 4.6 litre engines?
Does the engine clear the power steering box?
There's plenty of room for a 4 liter , in my Ranger . How much bigger does that .6 liters make the engine ?
What year mercury was the engine out of ??
imma write this stuff down
Who makes a stand alone engine wiring harness thks
Why can't you used the engine from a V8 Ford sport trac
Go pound sand tree huggers. Like anyone would know.
4.6L doesn't sound that big! my 99 S10 has a 4L V6 in it and it seems kind of small.
You guys really should have built this into a 4×4 it would have been cool. This is gonna be squirrely to drive in any kind of straight line with such a short wheelbase and light weight not to mention frame twist
I am a tree hugger and a car person and I appreciate you not dumping the freon into the air 😁
Personally too, I would have done the manual swap and everything in one for rather than have to take the truck apart twice.
Wow I didn't know u could cut a drive shaft urself thanks
I put a 302 in a 1990 Ranger….it almost killed me…lol….
4.6l motors suck. Should have used a boss 302 or built 351w
How does this channel still exist? How can they compete with the YouTubers with far lower budgets who do a much better job?
Damn those exhaust ports looks alot different than what my 4.6 2v
Would love to do this to my 1995 explorer giddy up!
Hearing someone say the new edge mustang motor a monster sure does put a smile on my face
It sure does show how far we've gotten with our car technology
Hmmmm this makes me want to get some crazy gas turbine engine out of a Abrams and put it in something aulthough I probably wont ever be able afford a 2 million dollar engine out of a Abrams or fit it in anything because it's like 10 feet long and 8 feet wide
The ranger should have came with a v8
And……. I see the a/c compressor on the new engine?????
wow thats too much work for that trash 4 6
needs more chevy v 8
Definatley “don’t want to make the tree huger angry.” 🤣
That is a Mazda not a Ford ranger
“ Tree huggers “ lol 😂!!!!
The 4.6 is single over head cam not doul. Ford didn't make a doul over over head cam till the 5.0 in 2010.
How much does it cost to build this truck
So the body of the ranger and B2200 are the same ? Apart from the grill maybe ?
You know they just went out back and threw that AC system into the dumpster…
This video is a nice Marco ad
Good luck finding Episode 4
Built a 2007 ranger with a 347 with a Whiple supercharger under the factory hood.
Hmmm could the Marauder front end have been adapted to that frame?
