I didn’t order the nuts but here’s part numbers for bolts and splash guard. Parts should arrive today might try to install later today
Edit: I think this is the part number for nuts W520413-S440

Started the project had to remove all skids
Had to anyway going to install new PPE pan and new trans fluid soon just waiting on filter seal.
But the problem with the shield from what I can figure out is it attaches behind the alternator and it’s extremely tight.
It’s under this sensor and pipe. For easier installation might have to remove sensor
You can barely see the alternator from the top and it doesn’t help I have mishimoto catch can and hoses are also in the area
From what I can find online you have to disconnect and remove the rubber boot on the positive terminal.
This procedure is for the Bronco 2.3L.

Don’t know what I was thinking. It attaches to the CAC outlet pipe I think it’s part of the EVAP system. But it needs to be removed for I can see behind alternator.

Definitely have to go from the bottom looking into taking off driver wheel and one of those rubber flaps. Just to see better and a little easier to install
Also this is the part I was referring to it’s called EVAP canister tube.
A little delay now though found some grease on front pass. axel
I have sway bar disconnect and I think the bottom pin hit the hose clamp. Should be easy fix ??

Removed the flap no help except to let light in.
From the bottom is the way to go
just not sure if this part will actually work on Rangers without some modifications.The part is originally for Broncos. Or remove alternator and put it together at same time.
I think this brass spacer on shield
Goes on this stud on bottom of alternator
And other attachment point in here on top of alternator
Here’s a video to see how tight it is might have to trim some off the back to make it easier to install or wait until it goes out and install during replacement.

No I’ve been working out of town don’t have much time to work on truck anymore. From what I think it will work might have to take alternator out and install it together at same time. If you don’t have 4x4 it should be pretty easy to install because the FDU (front drive unit) is in the way. the space is extremely tight a mechanic might have a trick to install, I’ll try to get to it this winter when I install my Long range America fuel tank.
