hello guys I'm new here, I'm actually new to American trucks. My first truck was a Nissan pickup , second was a Nissan pathfinder. Finally i got my self a ford ranger. I got this thing really cheap , the owner was driving it and the engine blew up, i offered him 150 for the truck and said id take it on the spot. He was stranded on the highway and didn't have a way to tow it. Thanks to Canadian tire road side assistance i got this truck down to a friends shop. The truck has 380km on it but its in decent shape.
I bought the engine from the junk yard, its from an Aerostar ... it has 160 km on it ... heard it running, the van was junked because of the transmission. I will get the engine on Monday. I'm hoping the swap is going to be easy, I'm no expert but i have done a a bunch of swaps before. I'm working at a shop so all tools are there , plus a hoist.
Any advice can you guys give me about this swap, difference between the Aerostar and the ranger 4.0L from what i can tell the intake manifold and the exhaust manifold
might be different, any tips would be great.
Thanks guys
