I recently blew the rings in my 88 mighty max 5 speed 4x4 with the 2.6l i was wondering if there was any where anybody knew of where i could possibly order a used one or something. Maybe even an easy/cheaper engine swap if anybody has any info for me id greatly appreciate it i really need this truck back running as it is my daily driver and im in high school.
Look at car-part.com, there are a few listed within a few hours of you. Good luck!
Looks like the ole bicycle gets taken out of storage for a while. Hang in there. Might find a shortblock on the site lush90 gave you also.
The bicycle would get taken out if i had one plus its a ten mile hilly trip to town so im not so sure ill be taking that idea lol thanks for the site though
are you sure the rings are gone? what does a compression test show?

I havent ran a compression check since i replaced all the gaskets including the head gasket but it was dumping oil out of the valve cover into the breather tube and straight down the carburetor which im pretty sure thats a good sign of blown rings
