I am using a 98 Taurus engine for a replacement in my 99 Ranger. I already swapped over to ranger gaskets and everything else.
My issue is with the trans not bolting up. I used the ranger flex plate but the torque converter is butting up to the flex plate and the bell housing still has a half inch to go before it meets the engine.
Should I be using mg the Taurus flex plate? Does the crank poke out further on the Taurus engine?
