95 in a 94

[smegun]

my exp is now looking for a block I have an offer for a 95 ohv short block with a 100k for under 300 with a guarantee from a good salvager .....would just have to pick it up and install it pretty sure there real close the yard man had it up on the computer and says there the same but I asked about the cmp ? and wondering about the pcm and any major differences that would keep me from installing the 95 exp ohv into my 94 when there is no power its time to chowder

1995 Explorer and 1994 Ranger used the same 4.0l OHV engine, so no issue swapping the engines

Explorer would have a cam sensor but unless Ranger was from Calif it would not
You can either leave the cam sensor in place and just not plug it in or you can pull out the 1994 oil pump drive and put in into the 1995 engine replacing the cam sensor

You can't swap computers

You can read here on the changes over the years to the 4.0l OHV engine: https://therangerstation.com/tech_library/40rebuild.shtml
