I have a 1989 ranger 5spd I'm putting a same year 302 into and I was wondering if I need a different cross member to put a mustang 5spd transmission in the truck?

 

Welcome to the forum

I assume a Borg Warner T5 trans?
(and just a heads up, Non-World class(NWC), and World class(WC), T5 has nothing to do with strength, WC has standard Over Drive ratio, for use world wide)

You may have to move the cross member forward an inch it two, it really depends on where you mount the engine of course.
But the BW T5 bolts to the Ranger cross member

Make sure the T5 you use has speedometer cable hook up
