Hi I am in the process of swapping the 2.9L from an 87 Bronco II to the 4.0L from a 92 Ranger. I don't really want to mess around with the wiring, Is there anyone who makes a wiring harness to adapt the 87-92 ??

You could always get the dash from the 92 and it'd be plug in.

There is no production harness that will allow this swap to be plug and play. Your options are to deal with the wire work or get an entire dash and swap it in.

What señorboob was saying is if you take the entire dash out of the donor 92 ranger and bolt it into the 87 it will make the 4.0 conversion go a lot smoother. Other wise you will have a lot more headaches wireing everything. If you use the 92 dash you should only have to wire the fuel pump and back up lights/running lights, and all that wiring is confined to the area right under the brake vacumn booster

What señorboob ...
Is that a nickname? How you really feel about me?

Anyway, sorry that my post wasn't more clear. That's twice this week someone has had to clarify what I said for someone else...
