Found the problem, advise on the rest.

Hey, I took Unity's advise and the boots were shot, changed those and found some rust on the boot of number 4. So I'm thinking the back pressure to cause that would be the cats are clogged that bad. I dont have a welder so flex tube and the cut off flanges will have to do tell i can get some junk yard cats to make into fake cats(for state inspection). Then take my red neck exhaust and have mandrel bent pipes made when i get the money.

Thanks for the help guys, any other thoughts on "tuning up" the engine. Its got 4 month old plugs, the boots, a new air filter, and soon lol a full x-pipe exhaust with two rez and magna flow mufflers. Not that i haven't built engines but, I've been a 4 banger guy(mostly honda's) and I changed ways when i got the Lincoln(back to high school when i could rebuild a 350 in my sleep stoned). Also found a junk parts car LSC I was thinkin about taken the diff and maybe the bags if they look good, any thoughts and that would be good to.

thanks again

wasnt your car converted to coils???? also don't waste your time pulling the diff from the lsc not worth your time or money, just get 4.10 slapped in with a trac loc

cant you just get a track loc out of a ranger? Those go on ebay for under 100 bucks. Then gears are another 140ish..Not sure how much install would be.

how many spline are rangers, they might not have 28 spline they may be 31 not 100 percent sure, plus i think there is a difference in the diff itself seeing that it is in a solid rear axle if i am not mistaken. i thought i heard the exploders will fit tho

pretty sure its a 28..Dont know anything about the rear axle diff though..I just remember somebody doing it on 1 of the forums.
