So I made the 5 and a half hour trip to near st Louis, and I came home with a 1993 ranger, it started out it's life as a homely splash 2.3 5 speed. Well the previous owner apparently spent a lot of money on it and these are the specs.
98 explorer block x-ray and fresh hone
Ford racing forged rotating assembly
Comp cam somewhere in the 600 lift area still waiting on the exact specs
Pro-Comp 210 heads CNCD and fresh valve job
arp hardware throughout
felpro gaskets
Spec Stage 3 clutch
New world class t5
Custom shortened and balanced drive shaft
8.8 3.73s with a new posi unit 31 spline
Disc brakes all the way around
Now the bad, it's gonna need some work on the bed, a few good cracks in the fibreglass, nothing some duraglass and elbow grease can't fix. The radio, cig lighter, and tach need wired, the front end needs a good go through and a 2" drop. The rear shocks are air and are going bye bye for some konis or possibly eibachs. The syncros are starting to go but could possibly be the clutch since it needs some serious adjustments, and new headlights and taillights.
