So I have read the how to article on swapping a v8 from an explorer to my 99 ranger. It's pretty straight forward. I'd like to do this sometime in the future. I want to have it be a 4x4. I know I could use the awd setup with the automatic trans frommthe explorer and it would work well. But I would like to have this 5.0 setup with a manual transmission and still have 4wd. Surely this is possible, with reprogramming of the ecm(computer)/whatever you wanna call it in the explorer. Does this sound feasable to ya'll?
