Thats what im trying to acheive after removing the engine/ecu harness to go carburated v8......getting power back to cab electronics. I have the main black/orange wire from starter relay B+ that wraps around above the radiator and ties into a few other black/orange AND a yellow wire via a sort...

So the 2 yellow wires that come off the ECA relay.....where do they go and do they supply power to the body circuits possibly? In the attached diagram, i cant tell how they end up in the power distribution box and dont know what/where the solid state deal is?

Ok. Clears that up, thanks

Should the red/lt gr wire in the, i believe, 8 pin connector be connected to B+ (through eca relay or not)?

Ill look into this all. Im able to get the 2.9 harness back, so i can dig through it and use whats necessary

So the solid yellow wire that comes out of the firewall ties into the black and orange stripe wires at this junction, which is what comes from the B+ side of solenoid. Along side it is a yellow wire with white stripe. That i dont see where it goes to immediately

Ok so im doing a carb v8 swap, and removed the engine harness with the engine. Both went together when i sold the engine. I have the battery hooked up, positive to solenoid, negative grounded to frame and body, and the factory black/orange main power wire attached to battery side of solenoid as...

I figured, but both lines are 5/16". Only the connector is 3/8"

Ok so i know i can supply power to intank fuel pump and find out, but hoping to not make a mess. I have an 86 ranger originally 2.9 FI. Im doing a 302 carb swap and running lines to the new regulator (eliminating high pressure pump of course). The 2 lines going to the surge/filter canister, one...

Well great to know, thank you. I am glad you chimed in haha. First hand experience is gold. I figure the 1986 leafs have some sag, and im really a "do it right" kinda guy. Just sucks that doing it right isnt cheap haha

Sooo these https://ntwonline.com/83-97-ford-ranger-4-rear-leaf-spring-skyjacker-suspension/ .....will require the oem block with "wing" to achieve the 4" lift?

Awesome thanks.

So the options im considering are skyjacker soft ride 4" coils in front with the original leafs and 4" blocks (oem block removed) Or Skyjacker soft ride 4" coils in front and skyjacker 4" lift leafs in the rear (oem block removed). I dont mind factory like rake but level is nice too.

Yes has the bumper wing on it. Oh for sure doing drop brackets, im just wanting to get it semi level after the new lift. Im doing radius arms, drop brackets, etc. I have to order it all seperate due to the axles im gonna use. So want to make sure i order the correct lift amount...front and rear

So my 86 xlt 4x4 has a 2" block in the rear, is that standard oem? Also im wanting to do a 4" lift would i do 4" lift coils in front and 3" lift leafs in the rear and eliminate the "oem block"?
