toddstidham1-Are you sure about the bellhousing? I took a 2.3l diesel from an '86 Ranger and put in my 89 D50. Both 5 spds, the wrecker I got it from, told me another fellow swapped a "85 2.3 diesel into a '86 2.3 gasser Ranger. All kept orig. trannys.
Long way around it, but if you add it all up, it should fit. But, I've been wrong before...LOTS!

For a 2.3L gas engine, yes...different bell. The 2.3L Diesel engine is a mitsubishi engine and has the 2.6L bell housing.
