    Default 1989 Ranger 5.0 5-spd $2750

    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.

    Cam
