    There are different bhp options in the ranger, but I'd imagine the engine itself would probably be the same either way.

    As far as I know they're identical. I have a B2500 of similar vintage and all Ford bits I've used are a perfect match, from body parts to bearings etc etc... . A good port of call for parts is Milner Offroad in the UK, quality OEM parts for buttons compared to here.
