ok i have a 1996 ranger xlt v6 3l and i found this air intake which matches everything except it is for 1998 and newer models (http://www.4filters.com/Performance-..._p_5-1072.html) do u think i can put it on my 1996???

 

A pic of your engine bay would be nice. I think the issue is you have a round air box and the years listed are a square box. I would imagine the tube layout is the same, just a matter of bolting the heatshield onto the truck. It may bolt on. If not some el brackets from a hardware store should make it work.

 

hey if you let me know, i got pictures of mine if you need up close shots of this for anything, i installed it a week ago so if you got any questions of how it looks or anything...give me a shout

 

ya ill psot a picture on my profile of my engine so you can take a look

 

your right about the round air box. i took it apart yesterday just to see it. but maybe i can remove it and just find a way to secure the square box on the side

I can't see the pics, but....The newer air kits use the holes that hold the stock air box to mount the new filter bracket. A creative person should be able to make it work after a trip to a hardware store.

 

you need to upload the picture to a place like imageshack (imageshack.com) or photobucket
