    A motor & diff change is not that hard .... But the blower + wire + ECU install / setup ... is the tough call

    My line of thought is ...
    Buy a 1990+ rangie with a "great body & paint / Licensed" .... Build that one up .... Then sell the 89 that you have to recover the purchase cost

    .... then start fleebaying ... or the "markets" ... the odd stuff thats useless to you

    This may help, clean out the shed & put dollars back in your wallet

    Thanks Mike, Woud be the best way to go about it for sure.
    I have been looking for a 94 LSE soft dash (My wife likes them) with a good body,interier with shot running gear but rare as Problem is body lifting a soft dash is not on unless I'm allowed to remove the Air bags
    Soon as I do this one will turn up I bet

    As a member from here has offered some help and inspiration I need to get this mess cleaned up so we can set the project up and come and go from it.

    Some may remember I was putting a 60 power steer and a 2H in a 45 series a wile back. Its been a PITA so I left it for a wile and now its covered in junk


    Looks like we may hopefully get some rain so may get a spare 1/2 day to deal with this.

    At the moment all I do here is Feed stock and fix pig damage to our fences on top of usual the duty
    This thing has been a great asset and liability as well


    Talking tyres on other threads the rears on that tractor there are 2.5k
    each

    You mean to make some room. It may be quicker to build a new shed. I tried that once and Boyle's law on sheds applied
    A lot of great people here but all so far away.... May be a job for that Yankee lot. Overhaulin


    Had a look at the 45 series today . The 60 power steering pump is in line of the bottom hose, The 47 2H fan wont clear the pulleys yet, The rad has to go forward etc I'm sick of it but have to make it work to get it out of the way. May as well have put a later engine in it as wouldn't be much more work. Should have used a 2F power steer pump.

    Good news is its starting to rain here tonight.

    They are bad here now as I'm feeding stock and the pigs have a good very nose. Just been up to unbridge some self feeders where my strs are and found six pigs munching away. Had no rifle so the 4BD1T 120 got a work out They are tough I can tell you. Glad I had a steering guard

    I hope no one here it to sensitive about this pic
    This is about the size of our pigs here. They do some damage


    I'm going up now to see if they're back. They can't see very well in the dark Taking the 4.4 Rangie (Quicker) and some artillery with me this time

    I've been hit up a few times on that topic The large feral goats seem to be of most interest. There is some one around AULRO that may like the sculls

    The BB Gun, I have two a bit bigger One scorched the bonnet on my mates patrol as I used it as a rest on a longer shot He's still upset with me, I laughed to tears when he told me.
