M5OD bellhousing differences

[funkingonutz]

are the bellhousings the same for all the M5OD's....like for example 1995 Ranger 3.0L mated to a M5OD out of a 94 4.0L and/or 2.3L?
or do i have to get a tranny out of a 3.0L to mate it to my 3.0L??

The 3.0 has it's own unique bellhousing bolt pattern

The 4 cylinder engines also have a different bell housings than a 3.0 and a 4.0.
