2001 Ford Ranger Edge V8 5.0 swapped from a 2001 Ford Explorer. Only noteworthy modifications include an E-303 cam and 24# injectors. Starts, revs, drives. Mostly everything is working as it should. It is throwing two codes, for the DPFE and the EGR valves, neither of which are hooked up, just...

During my 5.0 swap, my water pump pulley seems to have gone M.I.A. Can someone verify the following for me on a 2001 Ford Explorer 5.0 Engine? 1. Ribbed or smooth? 2. Bolt pattern spacing? (preferably diagonal) 3. Outer diameter of the pulley. There doesn't seem to be a listing in the...

Did a 5.0 swap on my 2001 Ford Ranger Edge, getting closer to startup. Just wondering who the go to person is now? I have a few power adders during the rebuild and need a few things tweaked. Just wondering who we go to for this now?

Am nearing completion of my Ranger V8 build. Am needing the 4r70w transmission dipstick TUBE ONLY. Located in Georgia, but am desperate for one. The one I got had the end with the o-ring falling off. Dont' want to try fixing it and breaking off. Thanks.

THAT'S RIGHT. I HAVE ONE TO SELL. I was going to sell it a while ago and got lazy (mainly because I couldn't find a box to fit it in). BUT NOW I HAVE A BOX. So what is it? -It's a Lund Windjammer! Fits First Generation Explorers Has it ever been used? -Nope! Basically brand new! Still has...

On March 29th I ordered a set of upper control arms that were 1/2 of the total control arm kit needed to lower a Ford Ranger Edge but keep the alignment straight. April 5th was when he finally processed the order, after having to message him on Facebook to verify it went through. I did not hear...

So I'm in the midst of my 5.0 swap on my Ranger, the problem I'm running into is header availability. I've seen no FRPP headers for sale in years and the Torque Monster Header is getting to be a rare breed. I have found a set of "slick fit" headers by Advanced Adapters, but it states they fit...

1. Anybody used or have an opinion on Speed Pro Hyper pistons? I'm staying n/a and from what I've seen they can be used with great success on n/a setups. Just wondering if any members here have used the brand. I believe Fel-Pro makes them? 2. My research into the connecting rods have yielded...

I have finally decided to start a build thread. This first post will be extremely light and pretty much just be all the basics. I've had the motor I'm putting in for about two months now and I've only in the last week or two really started to tear it down. So here it goes! What am I swapping...

Don't ask why or how, that will come later. But I need a double check before I order parts, these parts are for a 2001 Ford Explorer 302 motor that I am rebuilding to go into my Ranger. I located these parts using the Ford Racing catalog and then just plugging their part numbers into Summit...

Engine I'm using is out of a 2001 Ford Explorer. I'm needing a 2WD transmission, as far as what I can come up with, all '01's were AWD? I've read that there are a few differences in the 4r70w model years? I'm thinking that a 1999+ 2wd transmission will work and be plug and play if I use the...

Either here, RPS, or TRS had a thread/vendor/dealer/SOMEONE who could custom laser etch the 5.0L intake plaques? It's important lol I have a cool project going on and want to put a different plaque on it.

I feel like since I bought my Ranger and crushed my Explorer (sad day) I haven't browsed or been on here like I used to. This forum taught me so much, it inspired me to to go automotive school and now I work in a shop as a brake technician. As stated I crushed my Explorer, the front...

I'm looking at purchasing another vehicle for the next 'stage' of my life. Those that recognize my name probably know it's been a long time since I've been a very active member on this site and I am turning back to it to get even more. I have my 2001 Ford Ranger which I've slammed, thrown...

Platform: 01 Ford Ranger Edge, manual locks and windows. What I'm wanting to do: Install power locks. I have ordered: -two relays -two relay plugs/sockets -two two-wire actuators I plan on using this wiring diagram: What do I hook up to the switch? What type of switch? A single...

Edit: Picture What I am selling: -Billet Grill -Lund Windjammer (rear wing) (I do not have box or proof that it is by Lund, only my word and site history). Please note the windjammer has some scuffs and such from being stored for about 5 years, it is NOT in perfect condition. I'd say a 8/10...

I have an opening to buy a 96 5.0L to install into my 01 Ford Ranger. My Ranger is returnless fuel while the 96 has a return line. Any way to delete that?

Moderators, I am putting this into the modified Second Generation Forum because I feel I will get the most benefit from this area. This is the generation the engine is coming from and as it being an engine upgrade it most definitely qualifies as a Modification. I just don't feel that this being...

Friend owns a 1997 For Explorer, had a 4.0L in it (trying to verify OHV or SOHC). Before she bought it though a 5.0L engine was swapped into it. The speedometer does not work. I've read the thread about a Ranger swap and was wondering if it's the same things that need to be...

Gauging what the prices would be for an engine harness for a 99-01 Explorer 302. thanks.

2001 Ford Ranger Edge Currently riding with rear blocked on top of pack and with no torsion bolts. I have the 5" flip kit for the rear and ordering the front drop keys in a few days. All ready my Camber/Caster is horrible, like 2-2.5 degrees off. I'm searching for either a 3 or 4 degree...

I need a picture of an SOHC with engine and accessories installed correctly. Looking at another picture of a SOHC I almost feel that when my timing chains were done, my belt tensioner was installed incorrectly... Just trying to verify my stupidity. Or if anyone has a couple good quality...

Painting my Ranger in the next few months, help me choose a color! You can see all Photoshopped colors here: http://imgur.com/a/2xnWm#4 That is NOT my truck, but one very like it, and what my truck will look like with a few more body mods. Let me know what you think!

I see that most V8 conversions go the route of using Torque Monster Headers or some version of an aftermarket set of exhaust manifolds. I also know that the reasons for this is that the stock manifolds flow extremely poor. I've been looking at doing a V8 conversion for a while now and I've...

I know I've seen it done. Reason I'm asking is this: Few months ago I hit a deer and my bumper has been missing since. Ranger Edge Bumpers are near impossible to find and I saw a Mounty/Explorer the day and it looks like the contour is about the same. Can anybody confirm a Second...
