WE'RE BACK! It's been a long month. With Sema crunch, a successful yet busy Sema show, and Jason's sickness, we haven't had a chance to make a video in a while, but we're glad to be back. The Ecoboost fits perfectly in the Ranger, though it's super tight. Watch the full vid for all the details. Remember, Fat Fender Garage is having our annual Black Friday sale (Our biggest sale of the year) starting Thursday. Check out our Instagram (@FatFenderGarage) for more details, or if you have any questions. You won't wanna miss it!

I want to out a 3.5 turbo diesel in my 07 ranger it's the fx4 lvl2 with the "tow package" guessing thats the level 2 part for better suspension or something, dohc 4.0 in it, 5speed auto. I wanna know the estimated cost of the build (parts costs only) labor I could ask around at my local shop
2.3 EcoBoost swap in a 4x2 ranger would be cool to see.

do you know of any build lists on the 2.7l swap? i’d love to do it with mine but i’m having trouble finding 2.7 swaps and not 3.5
I was thinking about putting a 2.3L Ecoboost from a Mustang base coupe in my S10. With an aftermarket chip, down pipe & intercooler, you are over 400hp on a 2.3L Ecoboost. For me, I think it's a better option because the gear is way cheaper, it's less weight up front and it won't be nearly are tight under the hood. Plus, I don't have a shop, just my Man-Cave garage...
When I was 17 I swapped a 351 into my old ‘85 ranger 4x4. Used a bronco II C5 tailhousing into a C4 transmission so I could use factory transfer case. Made and welded motor mounts to the frame, oil filter relocation and put in a bigger radiator. I did this before the internet by myself at 17. Read lots of books and crawled around a lot of cars at the junkyards to figure stuff out. I love engine swaps!
i can’t eve begin to tell you how excited this makes me!!
So glad this came into my feed. EcoBoost & a 9" rear wow!! Looking forward to seeing more. You have a new subscriber sir.

Thanks for the support! Just filmed another update about this one today. Coming in the next week✊
IMO, I believe good long travel leaf springs might be better. Again, just my thoughts and opinion.
Thanks for update! Raptor crate #5 has been sold to someone I know.
You guys do some great work!
I have a 1999 Ranger (4x4 xcab w/ the 4L OHV v6) and I am very interested in having this swap done on my Ranger. Would your shop be willing to do another swap like this on my Ranger?
Man this Ranger is going to be a monster when it's all done.
Well I was hoping for a little more in-depth install. Since the idea is so unique. But it’s a major improvement from the 3.slow that’s in mine. Good luck
Man if I had the money this would be awesome for my ford ranger project. I’m working my way to making it an overlander.

Fat Fender Garage awesome I miss my ranger identical to this one but silver, wish I could put something like this in my 03 Tacoma. I’ve always wanted to do a killer swap into a small truck 👍🏽 can’t wait for the next video!
This is a dream truck with this engine swap.
This video is perfect for what I’m doing
I just became a fan brotha! Long live America!!!
Hopefully, those leaf springs blocks are for mock up only! Especially, given the amount that is being invested!! I would like to see the finally video!
Dream engine, wish i could get one for my 97 f150
I'll be interested in doing a 3.5 swap into my 2019 later down the road and possibly pass the little 2.3 to an older ranger lol
I'm starting my research into doing this in my 88 Bronco 2 rather than the typical 5.0/302 swap or the 4.0 v6 swap.
Nice .
This is awesome. What are the prospects of this being done to an 4WD Ranger?
Little overkill on the 9 inch, 8.8 out of a Ranger level 'll FX4 has 4.11 gears 31 spline axle with a torsion differential. I can tell that truck never sees off road use.
I'd love to know how they got it to pass CA smog inspection.
Shit.... Yes . I live for this. I love MOTOR SWAPSSS!!!!!

Very cool project. How does the 4WABS function with the 9" rear? Custom tone ring on the carrier?
I’m ready to buy that truck when is finished
That 8.8" rear end would handle that power fine. Also, Ford didn't make a 8.25"
I've seen a few Ecoboost swaps and they're cool but I think when my 3.0 finally goes in my '99 it's getting a Dart block 363. Seems cheaper and easier and will make plenty of power.
This, with lighter stickier tires and a standard transmission would be sick. Don't think they ever made a standard for any of the Raptors though :-(
I'm wanting to put this Motor in my 89 bronco
Would the 4 cylinder eco boost from the 2019 rangers be a easier fit/job?
Nice! Been waiting for an update on this. Do you think the 2.7 Ecoboost would be a easier for?

Where can the control pack for the Raptor engine be purchased? Also what transmission did you guys use?
Would like to look at my options. 78 Ford F250 engine swap to make daily driver
How would this engine fit in a 56’ F-100 engine bay? Do they make a manual transmission for it? How much is the Raptor engine brand new? Thank you
Have you put a 2020+ 2.3L EcoBoost & 10 speed automatic from a modern Ranger into a 2011 Ford Ranger?
So what ab the wiring ? Does everything just plug back in... or do you need to get a kit..
How much did this cost in total i have an 03 ranger I’m wanting to build out and would like to do a similar build on my ranger it’s currently running a 4.0 v6 but I’m looking to do new transmission and engine
What am I looking at as far as time and cost to have y’all do this swap on my ‘01 XL 4x2, and then convert the truck over to 4x4?
So f150 raptor steering wheel with padleshifter option??
How much do does it cost for y’all to do that? Like how much would someone have to pay to get the done
Also, what size tires are on there? What's the lift specs?
I am looking into swapping my 1999 Ford Explorer 4.0l v6 for a 2.7l eco boost v6 how difficult is it and what type of stuff would I need and where do I get the motor?
Will the 3.5L Powerboost fit in 2019-2022 Ranger?
what wheel setup are you running?
How about a 3.5l with a manual transmission on a 2000 ford f150?
That truck is going to drive a LS owner mad.
2000 ford ranger do you do side projects I need one
How much would this cost me if i want the same setup for my 2008 ford ranger 3.0?????

Duff sells beefy leafs for Gen 1-2 Rangers, and if you swap the front shackles, they work on the Gen 3 Ranger. Can retain the OEM 2" blocks. They offer ladder bars too.
Such an exciting build! Glad you're figuring out the intricacies! What wiring harness are you using for the EcoBoost? Surprised you didn't do like Deavers in the rear. Lift blocks any taller than 2" always make me feel uneasy, but those torque bars will help a ton.
I need this swap for my 06 ranger 😩 😫

I’m still trying to find a 96-01 5.0 explorer to put in my 2000 XLT Ranger. Realizing full prerunner means just the cab. I don’t even know where to start. I have a 2013 F150 crew with 3.5 eco I’d like to put in it. I dunno. I thought my Jeeps were money pits. I gotta consolidate and regulate the auto euphoria
I have 2005 ford f150 xlt can I swap to the 2.7l ecoboost. ??
Why the V-6 Just use the inline 4 cylinder eco-boost
Given the facts that the turbochargers wouldn’t fit, in my opinion that would have been the perfect time to upgrade the turbochargers.
How much would something like this cost
Would it fit a 2002 ranger 3.0
how much did the computer cost you? where I can buy?

How much is it to get it done to my truck
You might want to brace that frame before it goes to powder coat, or that truck just might turn into a Twizzler on it's 1st launch.....

What are you guys going with for the transmission? Are there any options for a standard engine with the 3.5 or the 2.7?
@paulhoskins7852
4 жыл бұрын
It is my understanding that a manual transmission would be extremely difficult as the Turbo Ford engine and transmission are computer controlled. They put them in modern turbo Mustangs, though, so I could be proven wrong.
2:52 looks very bad will get lots of axle wrap messing up pinion angle and with those blocks and added springs will make it worse... you need to set pinion angle those lift blocks look flat?!? will need trailing arm forsure.
I have an 05 Extended cab Edge model just like that one, how much am i looking at for yall to do this swap?

@AlexBarker11
Жыл бұрын
People have put the old 5.0 in fairly commonly. It's smaller because it's a pushrod engine so you don't have all the extra valvetrain components up top making it wider. The Coyote 5.0 has been done too but it was also very tight.
My dream is to put a 7.3 Godzilla V8 engine in my 2004 Ranger.
