Default 4bt Cummins

Hey whats up everyone! Tomorrow is my 21st and im getting another ranger finally tomorrow. First one was a 2002 3.0. Blew the motor like an idiot. Now im picking up a 93 3.0 5 speed. I want to do a 4bt cummins swap in it. Anyone know what tranny links up to that and what computer i would need? Also is there a lot of fabrication that needs to be done?

there's is no computer on a 4bt haha. You need custom just about everything from motor and tranny mounts, driveshaft and almost all wiring has to be redone or reworked

MID 90's F150 transmission is what people use. We converted a jeep at work and used a f150 transmission but a lot of custom mounts were needed.

As long as you have a welder and way to cut metal your good to go.

Place online sells mounting adapters for engine to transmission .

This guy did it. Lot of work but sounds like it'd be worth it in the long run. http://www.trucktrend.com/features/1...r-diesel-swap/

This could be an interesting route to go instead of a 4bt
