decided to use a stock airbox, slightly modified, for this truck. We did not want to run an open element under the hood, there are no good aftermarket airboxes made for the ranger, and the ones that are out there for Jeeps and such are $$$$
So lets modify some stock parts
I need a good way to connect the intake tube to the airbox
This is the job of the factory MAS
So I gutted one, we do not need the sensor and we want more airflow so
housing was filed smooth inside. I left some "meat" at the top to enable me to plug the hole
hole was drilled and tapped to accept threaded plug
set flush inside
cleaned and JB welded so no air leaks
housing cleaned and painted
