I know they made diesel ranger/still make them in other countries but has anyone even installed a Cummins, or a CAT 4cyl in a ranger before?

Just courious. I thought it would be cool someday to have a ranger to take to diesel shows and blow the doors off some cummins fans.

 

there is one over on pirate4x4 older gen with a cummins 4cly in it.

 

there was one at the Indy Jamboree last year.....was pretty sweet...looked all stock...

 

does CAT make a 4 banger?

i mean for automotive applications? i know they have a marine engine that's a 4 cyl.

 

I havn't seen any ranger diesel swaps......but I have seen a TJ and a YJ with a 4cyl cummins turbo in it. The YJ gets about 22mpg in the city.

 

Zach I know another project for ya

 

I know I have seen pics of a 1991-1994 Explorer that had a I4 Cummins swapped in.

The I4 Cummins is standard equipment in Ford Super Duties in some other markets (South America, probably others).

 

i have seen a mercedes OM 617 turbo (from a mid 80's 300D and 300SD) swapped into a 88 4x4 ranger... pretty cool

 

that would be the ultimate matchup - mid 20s mpgs and a turbo with lots of torque.

gator don't i know u from someplace (mb boards..)


i am 84300DT..& 84300DTurbo...

 

yep im on mercedes shop and benz world with my other baby

 

heh thought so, my mb is currently being driven by my son so i'm not on those 2 sites a lot anymore..

i have a ranger now so i'm here

kinda miss the old 617 diesel powerplant though. they were a great design. i imagine hooking one of those up into a ranger body would be awesome.
