hey guys, had a question, figured id ask here rather than start another thread. im going full manual also, iv read this thread 4 times already lol. i called the local junk yard and they have a 99 ranger 4.0 5-speed with 1354M t-case. the guy said he would sell me the combo for 400, 450 since i dont have a core. wanted to make sure this would work. im kinda concerned about the VSS, my explorer is a 99, but i dont think the VSS is in the rear axle, im going out to double check that now. and what about the front drive shafts? i dont think the front will work will it? the guy didnt say if the ranger had the OHV or the SOHC, hopefully it has the beefier SOHC motor. thanks for the help!
