Capability Questions

I know a lot of parts off the older model explorers are interchangeable with the rangers, but what about the new escapes? I saw a wrecked 4x4 for sale for really cheap, and was wondering if anything like a transfer case or front axel can be used on a ranger

I heard the escape emblems work fine. Lots of people do the V6 emblem, take it off the escape and put it on the ranger.

Should not cause many problems either, and its a project that can be completed on a weekend.

Not sure if the V6 emblem is compatable with your 3.0 though.....wait, it is, you have a V6 too, you should be OK.

lol. nothing of any substance is compatible. The throttle body can be adapted to fit a 3.0 ranger.

a lot of guys put the escape throttle body one. It's bigger than the 3.0 Vulcan.
