Hello fellow ranger fanatics!

Name is Mat, new to the forums here. Been lurkin for a while dreaming of having a ranger again. I have an opportunity. My father in law has two near identical 1991 rangers. difference being, one ranger is push button transfer case. From research, I have found engines, trannys, and axles to be the same. He is asking $2500 for both. one engine has close to 500,000 km and is need of a rebuild, but truck has nice lift, new rims/33" tires and body, interior, chassis are near perfect. The other has just over 250,000 but the truck itself is kinda bland. In my garage I have access to engine hoist, and all tools to swap an engine. My last two question's will be, How hard would the swap be? And, is there anything I should be looking for while doing it? such as problem areas that should be addressed while the engine is out.

If the engines are the same, the swap should be pretty easy and straight forward.
