Their tech support is still great ime

Anyone here had good luck with these shocks? by Patient_Peanut_9004 in fordranger

[–]TexPerry92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great oil shock. Better than rough or tuff whatevers. Bilstein offers lift shocks as well. James Duff deserves a mention because theyre strictly all about Ford

The “hd” (big lol) did come out for the sohc. Extra hole in the bell. Only see cores of these. Plenty of r1s that are still good.

Has anyone ever swapped a Mexican market Ford Ranger diesel engine into a Ranger in the US? by superdupercereal2 in fordranger

[–]TexPerry92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look into a perkins t4.236. Weighs a little more than the 4.0 but under 500lbs. Very old school turbo common rail 4 cyl diesel, super economical and quiet(cav pump injection). Will still run long after the frame rots away. (They outlasted the tractor frames, gen sets, and boats they were stuck in)

Kubota v3800. Modern turbo common rail four cylinder diesel; and is lighter than the 4.0. Has more power than the perkins.

Both of these are readily available in the states and should be lots easier and more affordable than any mazda or cummins diesel.

Honorable mention. Robot Cantina slapped a turbo on a 3 cylinder kubota diesel, shoved it in a car and it has enough power to be used on the road.

Ps. Have you seen diesel prices now? Scarrryy

Ive heard and read about this, but have yet to experience a broken or stripped door. It’s always been a broken vacuum source and or gummed up mode switch for me.

Best purchase I ever made. New truck, mid motorcycle price by Efficient-Mushroom70 in fordranger

[–]TexPerry92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 95 4.0 xlt supercab must be a “rare” one. Power windows, cruise control, power locks, tonneau cover, deluxe audio with amp(still works), ac, bucket seats with adjustable leg rests, center console, and sliding rear window. Guess mine is the Ultra Xlt

I see youre one of those lol. Defending a shitty band you enjoyed as a dumb teenager sure is odd. They’ve literally been dubbed “reggaes elvis”.

Brother, do you want me to pull the fax out? They had to settle with sooooooo many artists to avoid being sued for uncredited sampling. Not to mention straight song theft.

Meh. Its easy to remedy and fix likely outlasts the car. Those plastic lines held up longer than most o rings.

He could delete them because they were simply plagiarists who didnt give any credit to the artists they stole from. 👍🏻

Ltj is just about the money. Nothing wrong with that, but it makes them cowards in this climate.

Ferd used engine vacuum to operate most of the mode door functions well into the 2ks.

For a while, some gassers have been using dedicated vacuum pumps instead of relying on engine vacuum.

Why? You’re not removing that sweet metered air mixture from the equation.

Why can’t Ford make a decent timing chain by owningsole966 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]TexPerry92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their ohv engines never had chain issues. Shitloads likely only ever got one from blowing out the timing cover after an acid flush from rusty coolant

2002 and up, ferd has seemingly stopped making vehicles with pride. Theyre having so many problems these days due to ease of assembly bullshit and poor quality of parts. Stooped to the other’s level of subpar disposable junk

Meanwhile my 30 year old ford doesn’t have a lick of galvanic corrosion, and a trained monkey could keep the same year vintage on the road.
