If you have a nice shop or garage - burn your waste oil.
I have a Vevor 8kW diesel heater and I run 80% diesel and 20% waste oil through it. I generate about 3-5 gallons of waste oil a year between vehicle oil changes and differential changes. It helps offset the cost of the big heater in my...
This. You've already had one of your biggest depreciation hits. It doesn't make sense to get rid of it now. It maybe would have 20k miles ago.
For me, I love this generation of ranger and just have a hard time seeing myself replacing it. Unfortunately new vehicles keep getting bigger and...
Alright for anyone looking for info on this transmission into Rangers, you can find it here:

Now back to the Disco. I finally have the electronic throttle pedal and Bronco clutch pedal in. It was no easy task requiring...
These options are all significantly less than that, while also being a bigger improvement:

Alright since this hasn't been done before and it seems like there is a LOT of interest, I thought I would at least draw up a blueprint for how to do it based on what I currently understand. I will add to this thread as I learn more and I encourage anyone else that's ready to undertake this to...
I'm happy to discuss it with anyone else that wants to attempt it. I have a pretty good part list and understanding of the bronco system since I'm putting a Bronco drivetrain into another project of mine.
EDIT: Here you go...
I can't do anything other than think of Kraft Mac n Cheese when I see that color on any Ford.
My wife and I yell "MAC N CHEESE RANGER" Whenever we see one.
I have 275/65R18 BFG Trail Terrains. I'm on a 2" OME Level and 1" wheel spacers. It's a less aggressive tire than I used to have since I have another vehicle for off-road. Something is rubbing at full lock in reverse, but it's pretty minor. Once I get a few thousand more miles in I'm sure it...
Okay last post, I promise. It only took 45 minutes to swap the door. It was EASY.
After a quick car wash... you'd never know it wasn't the original door... take that body shop!
From my research, I know itll bolt up directly to the engine, and transfer case. It's also cable shift so exact positioning isn't that difficult. My understanding is a lot of the mounting for the shifter and clutch are existing from the global ranger, hell in fordscan it even has an option to...
