as for now my truck is dead ....lol... well i had fun til the end
she slung a rod through the piston block and i mean through...lol
im gonna hunt for another engine and slap it in there and if not ill part it out and get another truck

oh here is a pic of the rod i found laying on side of the motor, the rest of it is laying somewhere on the road, i didnt stop i kept driving til i made it home from the woods on 3 cyl with a huge *** hole in the block




good times

 

Well dang. That was short lived.

Take two of the remaining rods and pistons, weld them together in an X shape, attach a piece of 2 inch square tubing, cut to fit your trailer hitch, drill a hole for the pin, paint to look pretty, and enjoy.

good idea but, i know ill just get it ripped off by something lol im rough on vehicles.....very rough

 

Moral of the story, stay away from Fords.
I know the truck says Mazda. Its just a Ford whom hates its family name.
Former owner of a b2300. =P

 

yeah i know its a ford engine and ford trans n stuff

 

damn, already? lol, atleast you had fun in it.

 

its more than a ford engine and trans. It came off the ford factory line! The whole thing was made by ford.


I'm seriously waiting on Reaper to read this. =P

 

i might have it sold for 600 as is

 

i don't know what you did to that poor truck but ford rangers are some of the tuffest little trucks on the road i have quite a few friends who daily beat the **** out of them and they still run. but it could be the fact that the truck didn't like the name tag that was stuck on it so it decided to stop running.

 

did you not see my off road thread???? lol
