I made a big decision today, I'm dropping the 2WD build and putting the 5.0 in the truck known on this forum as The Jalapeno. Currently a good running 3.0 automatic 4WD with an unusually clean frame. There have been mods already, I have a shorty console, bucket seats, overhead console, lighted visors and a dome light from an expo. The decision was made in part because I came across a 97 transmission and transfer case which matches my 97 5.0 I currently have in the 2WD unfinished project. The transmission came with a story, it was lady owned, she was adjusting her sun roof and ran it off the road. It was pulled, a fellow ranger owner named Seth bought it, kept it inside and put it on Marketplace. I contacted him and even though he was a full hour and a half away he delivered it to me TODAY. It is in doors again, so it has never been outside or rained on. The trans: ![]() ![]() ![]() All I could find wrong with it was a busted speedo output, I plan on doing something different anyway including swapping the transfer case. ![]() AND I got a free starter also YAY. Now I have a spare. ![]() So let the fun begin, this is the subject truck: ![]() I just hope I can keep up the steam, kind of lost it on the last project!
