Any trany that was in a ranger (with the exception of the ones with the integral bellhousing) will bolt to a 302 with an adaptor (http://www.advancedadaptors.com or http://www.jamesduff.com ) Most people will tell you its not a good idea to do it though. Ranger transmissions are weak. If you are going to spend the money doing the conversion invest in a decent transmission. T-5 (from a 5.0 mustang not the 4 cyl one) is your best bet for a manual and i think most people that do an auto conversion end up using the a40d for overdrive or c-4.

 

thanks a ton for the link will save hours of fabricating lol

aa has some sweet things

later

The Explorer was offered with the 302 back when it and the Ranger were still very similar, right? So why couldn't you just toss a 302 in a Ranger? Were the trannys different in the Explorer?

 

well the guy wanted too much cash for the 4x4 so i will just go with mu ornginal plans

stepfather said i could have his 2 rangers 1 is ext cab v6 box gone rotten(needs ring gear) 1 is a regular cab with good box ( needs new fire wall rusted away) both for free and his help lol

ok i know that northern auto has a kit with a rad mounts and headers there hedman headers shorties i think any one got the part number for just the headers???
thanks
