1993 ford trader engine repairs

ccab, Nov 22, 11:41pm
I have a 1993 ford trader motor home, which needs new rings and bearings. Looking for someone/business who can remove motor to replace the ring and bearings. I can be contacted on 0274408322. Thanks

rings and bearings ca be done in those without removing the engine

but

until you get the head off and the pistons out you have no idea just how bad the bore actually is, it will need measuring and you may get away with pulling the ridge - or it may need removing and reboring

almost any garage with a workshop can remove the engine - you could also do it yourself in about 4 hrs, take one front wheel off and block the axle up, roll an engine lifter in, drop the g/box linkage off then the g/box off, lay it on the floor behind the engine, and then lift the engine out, all up about 20 bolts and 3 sets of wires that actually unplug at the chassis loom

it can be done leaving the rad in place but its just as easy to flip that out off the way first
