Long story short I've had my 1999 3.0L 4x4 ranger for almost 3 years now, and I have done 3 motor swaps already. Always swapping another 3.0 into it. For the last time I killed another one. I'm all done with 3.0's. I was going to do a 302 swap, but decided on a more cost efficient 4.0L swap. I have a complete donor vehicle. My question, I've heard mixed things... Will the 4.0 motor bolt up to my 3.0 transmission. It's a 5 speed standard. T5? Either way I don't want to have to put the automatic that's in the donor vehicle into my truck.
Also, kind of obviously but looking for re-assurance here, I also need the wiring/computer/harness from the donor vehicle, yes? Will it plug and play with the plugs that are already under the hood? Or do I have to change out all the connectors?
