bigcountry295 10-14-2010 06:46 PM

now i next question is will a edge engine work for a regular 98 ranger xlt??

d0sitmatr 10-14-2010 07:36 PM

I dont see why not, but chances are your going to need the wiring harness and possibly the ECU.

bigcountry295 10-14-2010 07:54 PM

well when i looked at it this evening when i got off it looked all the same the wires will come with it but where the sparks plug wires goes they moved it to the pass. side of the motor. i just hope it does work i need it bad

it looks like the long block is the same for all model years. you might just have to swap your intake, accessories, and exhaust manifolds. That's what i understand from reading on several forums.

You should just go ahead and upgrade, and by my 4.0. :)
I got everything you need to make it work, except a dipstick. lol

d0sitmatr 10-15-2010 11:00 AM

JRacer 10-16-2010 04:14 PM

JRacer 10-17-2010 02:33 PM

I want the 4.0 gone. PM me with an offer zach if you really are interested. It ran great when i pulled it about a month ago and it's been stored in my shop since then. I have every little thing you will need for it. Besides the dip stick and dip stick tube that i sold to fellow member. But i can go get you one from the junkyard and slap it on there before i ship it.

bigcountry295 10-17-2010 04:55 PM

how many miles is on that 4.0 n how much u think it will cost to ship it

zak873 10-17-2010 07:10 PM

it'll have to be crated, and freighted.

JRacer 10-17-2010 08:10 PM

It's prolly $150 for shipping. I can creight it at work and ship it at work also.

bigcountry295 10-17-2010 08:58 PM

jr mansur u going to be selling ur 4.0 to zak??

JRacer 10-17-2010 09:27 PM

Idk, we've been talking a little. Definately doesn't mean it's sold though. I consider it sold when someone makes an offer and we agree and they send me some money to ship it. :)
