Not trying to be exactly period correct it is a Ranger after all lol. Yeah i dont think the 79 had a 302 lol My dad had a 79 Pace Car with the turbo 2 3L remember him saying it was geared low and was quick but maxed out around 80. Trying to build something different and fun that's not the norm...

I've always wanted a 79 Pace Car Mustang, but their prices have gone through the roof in the last few years. So that got me thinking, I have a solid 92 Ranger just sitting in the garage collecting dust. Why not build it into a tribute to the Pace Car, may not be a Mustang but it can be fun and...

You can check your pressures with the A/C off to get a rough idea of the current charge, should note checking static pressure is not a replacement for checking the operational pressures. With 134a your static pressures (the pressure of the Freon in the system with the A/c off) should be near...

Lost mine in the few years my Ranger has been parked. Anyone know the Ford part number or better yet the size of the 4 compressor mount bolts? Have all my parts now to get a/c back in my truck now except those bolts. The 4 rangers in the local pick and pulls are non a/c trucks or the...

Going by the wire colors on the ecm, Red and pink with orange stripe control the WOT relay, Dark Green with orange stripe tells the ecm the compressor is engaged, purple comes from the hvac control. Can anyone confirm this? Really dont want to fry my ecm.

I sugesst going through the vacuum lines one by one. Have an 03 Focus, was having issues with my EGR causing it to fail inpection. Afyer replacing and testing individual components and $200 later found a small pin hole in a vacuum line. Dont take much of a hole to stop vacuum actuators from...

Seems the pink orange stripe and dark green orange orange stripe go to the ECM, found the ecm pin out for a 94 ranger 3.0L. I'm guessing one is for the ecm to tell the engine to idle faster with, the other i'm guessing is for the WOT relay. Still at a loss what the Red wire is for.

I still have my 92 Ranger it's been off the road for about 6 years again, due to an unfortunate close encounter with a Deer. About five years ago I had the engine out of is and replaces the crank seals and put a new oil pan on it. Upon putting the engine in I smashed my blower housing... had a...

Like the title say will a Generation 3 Ranger 93-97 front bumper bolt onto a generation 2 Ranger 89-92 and look right? Had a Gen 3 valance rigged up with foglights on my gen 2 bumper and the bumper curves seemed similar. Just trying to figure out what fits, knows where I can get a front bumper...

Will the rear bumper from a newer Ranger fit on my 92 Ranger? I know where i can get a bumper from a 2001 for a decent price wasn wondering if it will fit before I shell out the cash to buy it.

What year Ranger rear bumpers will bolt onto a 92 Ranger? Will onlt 83-92 fit? or will 93+ fit as well? Thought I've seen pic of Gen 2's with the newer rear bumpers on them, cant find any of them now, but before i spend the money on a another bumper want to make sure what fits.

Since warmer weather is on the way , going to do some rust repair and repaint the ol' daily driver. I'm not looking to do some show quality paint job just something that looks beter than the rusted out rear fender arches, and peeling clear coat on hood and front fenders. I dont want to strip...
