I cut up a fiberglass mustang hood. Found it at a garage sale for 50 bucks! Then just glassed it onto the explorer hood

Made a cowl hood yesterday for my 2000 ex. Just looking for opinions.

Thanks everyone. Checked all of your suggestions and didn't find anything wrong. No check engine light since Mon and the trucks running great. Weird. Driving it from Eau claire to appleton tomorrow. Guess we will see how it goes.

Alright. Came out to the truck this morning, started it up and drove to work. Running just great. Haven't done anything to it since my first post. What the crap is going on?

Have a 2000 with a 5.0. Running really rough and codes say running lean on both banks. Yesterday morning I started it and I got the lean codes and rough idle.cleared the codes and ran fine. Drove 250 miles and no problems. Started this morning and same thing, drove 8 miles and it will hardly...

Anyone try using James duff swap headers or mustang shorty headers on a second gen 5.0? I really want headers but won't pay the torque monster price.

Yea I tried the light blue/black,and the grey wire before creating this post. Will probly end up tearing the cluster out and going from there

Just finished my manual 4406 swap yesterday and cant find what wires I need to tie into for the 4x4 lights on the dash. Any help would be great.

4406 swap complete! Truck drives better than ever, and only took me 7 hours from start to finish.

Just picked up all the parts for my manual 4406 swap!

Hey everyone. Been a while since I was on here last but I need some help. Got a 2000 5.0 with awd. Replaced all balljoints last week, cranked the torsion bars and put shakles in the rear. Put 31" Goodyear wrangler duratracs on it and got it aligned. After all was done, I'm getting a nasty...

Alright,no more 5.0 swap. Some really not smart guy gave me 2k$ for the 302,tranny,and t-case,for a ranger swap. I couldn't say no. So I got a jasper reman 4.0 with 40k on it, and a brand new tranny. I'm going to build the 4.0 and dump it in the truck. I'm thinking...

So how do I get around this pats key issue and the vehicle security that this 5.0 has? Thinkin about getting rid of the coil packs and putting in a distributor, then I can use a painless harness for a mustang 5.0. Any suggestions? No progress this week,really busy with work.

well this is the 5th time ive swapped a v8 into a ranger/explorer. BUT This is the first time ive gone fuel injected, and that is what is going to kick my ass. last time I swapped a v8 was into a 96 ranger. started with the 4 cyl and a 5 speed at 10pm, and by 2:00 the next afternoon it had...

hey everyone, started another 302 swap. some of you may remember i did a carb'd 302 swap and a c6 in a lifted 92 explorer a few years ago, but i really didnt like running the carb'd motor. So.... I started all over again. picked up a 94 explorer a few months back. rust free 4 door with 80k...

So the truck "runs" good now, but now the motor is ticking when under load. Up hills, stomping on it, etc. I know this is common, but what is the fix for the ticking? My last explorer that started ticking got a 302 to fix the problem, but I'm not going that route this time. I'm assuming its the...

Yes the truck only has 80k original miles. It is a 7 digit odometer. I changed the mass air flow and its runnin a lot better and not hesitating. Still not much power though. Also the check engine light is on, but the codes only come up as egr

So i just picked up a 94 explorer with 80k miles on it. 4.0, auto. The guy that i got it from eliminated the egr by blocking it off on the intake and on the exhaust manifold. When you first start the truck it runs like crap until it warms up, then it smoothes out but has no power at all...

Hey retard. when you start learning things about motors, and how to build power in motors, then you can start talking.... Untill then, why dont you just shut the f**k up. I think my 2 year old daughter knows more about motors than you if you think porting and polishing heads doesn't do ****...

When I make the frame I am planning on welding the body mounts up as high as I can, and I will most likely put a 3" body lift on it to. Im also not sure where the hell the turbos are going. I guess I will see where they will fit after I have the motor and tranny all mounted in.

my old ranger . 1996/ 2.3L/ 325K/ 5 speed/2WD.- when I baught it. ran great. drove 10 miles, then pulled the motor out to put a 347 stroker in it

Iv looked all over the web and cant find much info on big block swaps into rangers. I had a guy call me the other day and he wants me to build him a big block ranger. He has an 83 ranger. He wants me to build a new frame for it out of C-channel for some reason.... It will have a 9" rear...

Hey guys, I got a 99 explorer sport that is a 5 speed. I was thinking about trying to put a full lenth console into it. Has anyone attempted this on a 5 speed truck before? I just need to know if the opening in the console will be big enough for the shifter to be able to move through all...

ok, so I made an intake the other day for my 99 sport. It was soo easy and the truck is getting WAY better gas mileage. All I did was get a rubber elbow with a 3" ID, hook that onto the throttle body. Then cut a piece of 3" PVC to the length that you need so it will reach the MASS. Then use...
