Driveshaft’s are different between 2wd and 4wd, most likely length difference seeing the flanges are the same on both. MSRP on the 4WD transfer case is around $2000. Of course it brings them closer in price but your still getting less material with the 2wd.
Yes. Especially the output end. Not sure if the main case is the same or not. 4wd has transfer case attached to output side. 2wd just has a output drive flange.
The only thing that would give me concern is the “cleaned” valve body. But if it was truly cleaned properly and fresh fluid ( and some Lubeguard) you should be good.
Ok the 2wd new transmission has a MSRP of around $5900 so almost double the price of the 4wd version. Some of the online parts houses are selling them for around $5000. And with labor it shouldn’t be more than $6000. Hope Ford will work with you.
Yeah if it’s a 4x4 the transmission should be $3000 or less and $800-$1000 labor ( 8 hours to r&r). Plus a few incidentals so maybe around $4000 ish out the door out of pocket. But have seen these high estimates and then Ford swoops in and cuts a “deal” for around $4000 when in turn it’s...
Just because there’s oil in the intercooler doesn’t mean there was a turbo failure. Most likely something less sinister. I would bet that a good portion of Rangers have some degree of gunk in their intercooler. Especially after seeing what gets caught in the Ford Performance catch can.
Also could be blowby oil/ gunk from the upper pcv system being sucked in the cold side of the turbo. Or if the original owner didn’t maintain their air filter or ran a wet K&N filter it would allow oil to be sucked by the end gap of the cold side piston ring in the turbo without the turbo being...
Ok, I took it as what real life applications the turbos with the larger wheels came from hence my reply. What he meant was what real life performance expectations. All good ?
