Swap Ranger 2011 4.0L engine into B4000 99

Hi,

correct this if its wrong,

I read that you can swap an 03 engine in a 98 with no big modification needed :you need to use your old upper intake, wiring harness, cam sensor, old fuel rail (including your old injectors), old exhaust manifolds, old EGR valve, bracket, and pipes

ECU '97-'03 will all interchange. Some things are different in all of these years. Most are minor. Don't change out your ECU.

You can save some time if you use your old valve covers if not you have to deal with: The coil pack, upper radiator hose, PCV valve(s) , spark plug wires/mounts, DPFE sensor, and the main electrical harness connector bracket. If you use your old valve covers all of these will match up as on the old engine.

The cam sensor, oil pressure sender, and block ground appear to be the only sensors/connectors you’ll need to use from the older engine. use all the sensors from the newer engine except for these three.

You need to use your old heater hose bracket/coupling.

Do you know if we can swap a ‘11 to a 99 and that it would be the exact same thing you have to deal with, since the engine '03 are nearly the same as '11

99 ECU is still interchangeable with an '11?

can i use my 99 5 speed manual tranny with the newer engine?

thanks

I would try to do this like a gen1 4.0 swap. Take everything. Take engine, wiring, computer, dash, ect. The 99 was still the pushrod 4.0 and the 11 was a SOHC. The OHV to SOHC swap has been done before, by SnoRanger, but it will probably work best if you take everything.

Bump
I got an answer from adsm08! thank to him

But his solution is the most expensive, my try would be to do it with a little budget.

Do you think it can be done with the slight modification a said before?

May be someone did it sine my post is old!

Thank you
