Replaced clutch and slave cylinder at 305k, about to put in 2nd rear axle (the excess weights have taken their toll). Needing some TLC but still a daily driver. Very dependable.

I love the duratec, but I have to say I dont think they are as tough as the Limas. Thats insane dude. That lima is prolly approaching the toughness of ford's 300 cu in inline 6.

I'll put on that many miles this year, and probably then some. That Ranger is still a baby!

Eh the Lima still has its problems. My old one had 240,000 when I wrecked it and I had low compression in cylinders 2 and 3.
Not a 600,000 mile engine like the 300 or the 7.3

Yeah, the inline 6s were just ridiculous. Id love to find a 96 F150 with an inline 6 and an m5od
Never heard the 7.3l were that tough- Ill have to check them out.

Yeah I remember waiting for tires at Firestone a couple years ago, there was an article in a magazine I was reading, it was some guy who did a 7.3 swap on it. The guy who did the swap was talking to some guys who owned many 7.3's and one had like 750,000 miles on it, still chugging away.
I think it's the IDI that is bulletproof from like 85-92

Re: How many miles do you have on your Ranger?
With just over $3,000 in repairs after effectively sitting for the last 11 years, the '97 made a smooth run from Tennessee to Maryland--700 miles--very smoothly. Repairs were for AC, rear shocks and clutch work (master and slave hydraulic cylinders, flywheel and pressure plate along with other associated hardware). 2.3L four ticked right along, cruising through the mountains on I-81 at 65mph giving me 24mpg average. Still has a slightly confused fuel gauge and AC relay clicks on and off much too quickly when engine is at idle; think the idle may be set too low for when AC is turned on.
At now 20510 miles, the thing drove and rode like it was brand new. (I cheated slightly. Ran it on 89 octane the entire trip and engine performance improved noticeably.)
