He could use the M5OD for a stock mate, or he can use a ZF-S5 (IIRC) for a beefier component. Some fabrication will be needed if he goes the ZF route. :thumbs:

Ranger is basically the same as Explorer. Many explorers had the 302. Find a donor Explorer and have at it!

sounds like he needs to do it , and you need to take us alot of pics of the process. Ive always wanted to do that to a ranger , or put a 9" and a dana 44 under a bronco II......
