Well made a lot of progress today . It was slow today at work so after lunch I keep working on the ranger . I had to beat the shit out of the trans tunnel on the driver side like crazy , once that was done I decided to cut the ears of the trans just to be safe for the future tri-y's . It was a tight squeeze trying to get over the radius arm bracket mounts but once in it was golden . I plan on going lower so I'll be ordering the radius arm relocate kit which does away with that cross section . The trans mount crossmember needs a plate to be welded to it so the mount reaches . I bet with swap plates that have been slotted it may bolt up , it's only like 2 inches shy roughly . As for the radiator tuck , it's done . Had to cut out the whole lower support out .going to Weld up a new brace in the next few days for a new lower support . But didn't have to cut the top at all lol . Cut out the side sections also . Plan to find a better radiator down the road once everything all running right . Top explorer radiator hose works perfect , lower I need to find something to work . Using the stock expo clutch fan with ranger 4.0 Shroud . Fan setup is temp for right now still I find a Jeep Liberty fan like I have on my rx7 . Its a 18" electric fan with a big shroud that can be trimmed down . Push big air for sure . Feel good bout what got done today , may have left some things out but I'm getting more pics tomorrow of the trans and exhaust routing if done
