As im finally approaching the finishing touchs to my 5.0 swap, I just wanted to thank Dave, Grumpy, brandon & the v8 forum, rangerstation forum for all the advice & help. I fired up my truck and felt really good to hear it fire up. Most of the swap was plug & play except for the ECU &...

Looking for an 99-00 explorer 5.0 engine harness. If you have an extra one or know where I can find one & willing to sell for a reasonable price? Thanks

I heard back from tech & even though I was told it could work on a v8 motor it has never been tried on a ranger v8 swap so pretty much it would be a research & development deal on my part and I could get mixed results. Kinda sucks

I called this morning and they told me it would work on v8 motors but still waiting on the sensor questions I had about the kit.

Since im still in the process of finishing up my motor swap and I currently dont have a dash in my truck but have a guage cluster off an explorer 5.0, would it be possible to install a digital computer reading gauge cluster and do away with the OEM guage cluster. Will the truck turn on with the guag...

hope the camera doesnt malfunction with the weather j/k

sorry for the typo, the harnesses I have do not have that plug?

The yard thats finding a harness for me, is charging me $60 for the harness, but unfortunately they have only 96-97 harnesses but they said if they find an 00 explorer at an auction they would send me the harness, so ive been checking with them every friday for an update. The main thing is the cam s...

Thanks for the info dave. Dont remember why type of regulator or pump that was mounted.....A friend of mine put it on about 2 yrs ago but il have to get in touch with him on the info. I know they got the pump & regulator from carquest. Im looking for a 2000 explorer 5.0 Engine harness with MAF s...

Ebay had some helpful info on the core demensions for the radiator difference. on the 5.0 the core measures H 20 3/4 x W 23 5/8 x T 1. On the 3.0 it measures 20 3/4 x 23 1/8 x 1 or 20 1/2 x 25 5/8 x1. They do sell thicker core radiators but may be different in demensions on the OEM specs. Not much d...

Ive used trac bars in the past but they limit suspension travel. The work well keeping suspension from swaying. But raises your chances for a roll over.

Does any one happen to have a pic of the location of the aftermarket aeromotive fuel pressure regulator on the motor?

Also does the explorer 5.0 radiator thicker in the middle than the ranger 3.0 radiator?

thanks

cgrey thats interesting what yoo wrote.

@ cgrey fuel compensation sensor is the flex fuel sensor its the sensor under the driver side mounted on the frame rail. Compensates the difference in E85 from 87 so that the motor still runs the same as any 87 unleaded vehicle would. I did some research but hit walls every where I went except when ...

20 below is pretty damn cold. I sure hope to get an answer or il just remove it & see what happens to the trucks performance when it goes to the dealership in a couple of months. The quick release steering is awesome, wish ford had made a ranger like the ford raptor.
