Re: Lets see your overlanding/expedition/camping rig.
I just got a set of these lights, not sure if they're going on the ranger or my F-150. Anyways how do you like them?

Re: Suspension Springs 4 cylinder VS 6 cylinder
If your talking about the older cast iron 2.3, you wouldn't get much lift. Those little motors are heavy. One 2.3 head probably weighs close to both of the 4.0 heads.

I need to do something about my bench, it has two broken springs.
I started building a light bar today. I'm using 1 1/4" & 1" EMT.

Re: Fan clucth rotation
They must be rotation specific. I went to the part store and found one for standard rotation. I got it from a earlier bronco with a 302. I lost some power but at least its not running hot anymore.

Re: Subaru commercials "they lived"
I was rear ended by a Durango when I still had my 87. My bumper was a little bent and my head broke the rear window but the Durango left on a flat bed. I'd have to say Ranger 1, Durango 0.

Re: 2.3l Stroker build for 96 Ranger
I'd leave the engine alone if you're worried about mpg. The 2.5 head might give you a little more with the lighter valvetrain. Put a better flowing airfilter and catback exhaust, might give you a few...

Re: Catastrophic Engine failure again!
Does anyone else drive your truck? If so don't let them anymore. Valve springs don't normally brake with that low of miles unless it's been over revved.

Re: 2.3l Stroker build for 96 Ranger
The 2.5 has smaller valve stems, I believe 7mm and they have beehive valve springs. I wouldn't mill it at all if you don't plan on running high test fuel. Its already 9 to 1. The reason new cars run...

Re: 2.3t heads on 2.3 block? Need opinions
I don't know too much about the newer DOHC 2.3s but I think they have around 10 to 1 compression. That much compression with a turbo and pump gas will not last long. You're going to need forged dish...

Rebuild your motor and add a turbo. They're different engines, yours is a DOHC.
