There is lots of them out there still.

I've sent three B2's to the crusher and i had a minty running Ranger come through my yard that is going to the crusher on Friday. Next week I'll add another B2 to the list.

 

[BlackBII]

I've sent Two '85 BII's to the crusher, Two '90 BII's, 1 Ranger, 1 4dr explorer and one 2dr explorer....

Yeah, there are a bunch, maybe I'll pull the motor and then just put the truck on Craigslist, maybe some one needs a Cab/Bed

 

[CopyKat]

Throw the 2.9L in it. Should also be a plug and play.

 

[BlackBII]

The 2.9 in the BII that i would put the 4.0 in is only it's last cylinder, I think both head gaskets are blown, and it's got like 287,000 on her, it still starts every mornin tho(only goes about 50mph or so)

Plug and Play....Just have to change out the comp and engine harness?

 

[CopyKat]

And the distribution harness. Should be no spliceing involved. Even the fuel lines terminate in the same spot. so no splicing there either.

OK Sorry i lied Youll have to swap some wires if you go from the auto to manual. but if it's auto for auto your set.

I've got a good running 2.9L sitting in my shop. the guy told me yesterday he had no use for it, after I've been holding onto it for nearly a year because he said he'd take it.

Here is another one.

Non tinted rear and side windows. I've heard of them but not sure they were available.

I saw one at the wrecker a week ago, I have seen two of them so far.

I have also seen one with no windows...It may have been custom, but it looked so clean and well done I thought it was factory. I dont know who would do all that work, I mean, the body work was incredible.

I have also seen some without a roof rack at all, dunno if this is rare or not.

 

[BlackBII]

This is a rumor list.



6. M5OD 5 speed trans.-*Confirmed* Most if not all 1990 models will have this as a manual trans. 1989 saw the last of the FM146's.



All I can think of at the moment.

Of the 5 '90 BII's I have owned, they have all had the FM146.... I guess I have bad luck. They did however have a D35.(All but one)

Really. Could be the late to last few that got the M5OD. I've seen atleast 2.

The one non D35 was prolly an early production 90.

So they did make them.

No windows as in a filler panel/Panelside. That would be different.

Not all had the roof rack. I had an 89 that was rackless. My 87 was too.

That reminds me of the non tire carrier ones too. Buddy of mine has one as a parts truck. I might steel that hatch for mine if I don't finish my split gate.

Yeah, panelside.

Yeah, I have seen the ones with no spare tire rack, one at the wrecking yard had the OE spare under a cover on the....drivers side I think, I think the interior panel was even changed to accomodate the spare.

 

[engdept]

Maurice's '86 is rackless.

 

[BlackBII]

Anyone seen a 4banger or Diesel BII?

 

[engdept]

I have saw a 4 banger 2.3 BII, but not a diesel.

 

[Boggin]

so B2's are suposed to have the spare tire carriers on the hatch?
