Looking at putting a 4.0 and 5 speed manual from a '99 explorer into a '89 Ranger that currently has a 2.9 with blown A4LD. Questions-
1. Is the 4.0 as prone to cracked heads as the 2.9?
2. Is the wiring harness in the '89 ranger compatible or will the whole thing have to be rewired?
3. Is it ok to keep the ranger rear end or will we need to swap that also?
4. Any other known booby traps with the proccess?
