Make: Ford
Model:Ranger
Year:1989
Mileage:90,000
Options:Power steering
Mods: listed below
Engine: 5.0L / M5R2 manual trans
VIN#:1FTBR10A0GUA48453

1989 Ford Ranger. Has been swapped to a roller HO 5.0L engine. The transmission is a M5R2 manual transmission from a 1990 Ford F-150.

The mods are:
Holley Carb
Edelbrock Intake
B-303 camshaft
Hedman Headers
Flowmaster mufflers
Bigger radiator
Aftermarket temp and oil pressure guages
Firehawk tires with lots of tread


The M5R2 transmission whines when it is being driven. I went to a transmission shop he said the fluid must have been low at one point and caused this but the best thing to do would be just drive it until you have a serious problem with it then replace the gears. He said changing the transmission fluid to 20W50 oil and some lucas oil additive may quiet it down but I have yet to try this.
I am currently daily driving the truck. Another bad point is it has no AC. The tires are fairly new. The interior is really clean.


If you have any questions contact me at axistang @ hotmail.com .

City.State: Greer, SC

Condition: Used, good

PRICE: $2750. I will trade plus cash for the right 94-up Honda Accord EX, 96-up Honda Civic or 94-up Acura Integra manual but they have to be stock, unmodified on the inside, outside and under the hood.

I took a ride in this truck today. It gets down and sounds great with that cam.

And to answer the question about the air cleaner, it does have one on it.
