The Ranger is a 86 2.9L 5 speed 4x4. It is the FM156 trans, long wheel base.
The Truck is a 1997 Mountaineer 5.0L Auto.
Both are complete.
What issues will I run into when trying to swap the motor over?
Will it work with the transmission, or will I need to upgrade the transmission and transfer case?
Will the mounts work?
I have heard that 97 parts tend to interchange with the olde rangers, but is this true with the SUVs too, or did their frames/components get updated sooner?
Thanks.
