I posted this in the Ranger 5G forums, but figured I'd share some of the advice they gave me about the 2.3 litre engine, since its the same as the Bronco.

Nothing Bad happened to mine, yet, but I guess because of the low positioning of the alternator, they tend to crap out if you go into deep water. Just a word of warning for everyone.

The fix? Buy a spare alternator and have the tools to replace it with you just in case......

Anyways, was a great day spent with my son. It was a "stock doable" trail, so nothing too crazy. but fun none the less.

Maybe that's why all my Coonass ancestors moved south from Nova Scotia, Back In The Day!
Happy Wheelin!

Looked like fun! Trail managers calling them "Stock vehicle trails" cracks me up. I used to own a home medical equipment company and I had some patients' driveways that were worse than that. Try that in a GMC 3500 panel van... NOT FUN!! Good times with the kiddo are always GOOD times!
