stonedraider · 09-19-2012, 04:59 PM

has anyone here done this and some advise on it

*DominicanX* · 09-19-2012, 05:13 PM

I've seen a ton of threads on the 4.0 OHV Supercharged. I've seen some youtube clips of 4.0 SOHCs Supercharged also. There's a write-up, i believe, on TRS (The Ranger Station) of a SOHC build-up. Explorer Express makes an install kit, as well as a company called Banshee. Both use M90 Superchargers from the Ford Superbird (Thunderbird). Anyhow. I've been looking at doing one in the future and that's all the info i've come up with.

Cheers!

I thought they didnt make them for the ohv's anymore?

*Dono* · 09-19-2012, 07:06 PM

They don't, but with a few pieces, one can be made to work well on our motors. If you have a 4.0 sohc its easy to make one work. On the ohv, it's more work.

I want to do this along with the 5spd manual swap. I already printed out a thread with everything you need to know and a parts list on the tranny swap. Anyone got a complete parts list for the supercharger build? Including bolts/hardware and all that.
