I have owned this ranger for awhile. When I bought it, it had a 302 aod 2wd posi. Me and my dad painted it I did some upgrades headers 4 barrel holley camshaft aod governor. But driving home from work I cooked the trans. So it was time for some change. So, I got a long wheel base 79 f150 4x4 frame and shorten it 19 inches. And then found a 95 f250 drive train. 5.8 with a zf5 and bw1345. I had to make all body mounts from the old ranger frame. And made trans mount lower also.
