As for the 91 ranger, the brakes were nearly nonexistent. I didn't leave 2nd gear and my foot went to the floor. Not a single gauge worked, and he had a water temp gauge wired in but after driving it for 5ish minutes and opened the hood it felt really hot. He said the front accessories were from an f150, aftermarket carb, the master cylinder was stock ranger (so he says) and the radiator was from an f150 (it looked puny in there but idk) and when I went to go in reverse it wouldn't let me, it was just grinding reverse. Also, the throttle return spring (I think it's called that) was super stiff and i nearly had to smash the gas pedal to get anything and then when I went to shift it Was like the truck died when i took my foot off the gas, he said that was because of the stiff spring.
