I have a 1992 2.3l ranger that is 2wd completely stock with a manual transmission. I have found a donor truck that is a 1985 2.8l ranger that is 4x4. will the engine easily mount and can the 4x4 be swapped over to my truck? also is there a difference in the rear ends?
The 2.8 is a carbed engine, yours is injected, can't use the in tank pump, you would need to use the 2.8 trans, and your rear end may be a different ratio than the 85.
