Have you tried lining it up to the 97 and seeing how close it is to where it needs to be mounted? It should be pretty close, may even be a direct bolt on seeing as they are both rangers. Just have to have someone hole it in place and get under there and look what needs to be done. Take a piece of cardboard, tape measure and a marker with you and you can draw a rough image of what you need to make metal wise.
