What engines are interchangeable?

Two engines were offered that year. The v8 and the 4.0 V6.

I know that but what 4.6l engines out of other vehicles can i replace the 4.6l engine out of my 03 explorer with?

Check the 8th digit of your vin and the letter (engine) is probably listed as "W". This engine was used in the 03-04-and 05 models. Take note though I purchased a 2000 V6 explorer new which was suppose to come with the 4.0 V6 SOHC engine. A year of so later I was doing some minor work and noticed I had the old 4.0 pushrod engine in the vehicle. I immediately check with Ford and learned some leftover engines from model year 1999, which used both V6 engines, were installed in the 2000 model. I was instructed to check the engine code with the vin. Sure enough the code was for the older engine. Using an engine with the same engine code should work.

My 8th digit is an e

My 8-digit is an e

you can put any motor into any car. As for ease of bolt in you should keep to what was offered in the line up. Now lets say you want to keep the explorer but want better MPG. you 'could' take a 4 banger from a ranger (take the computer, and all the guts with it) and bolt it right into an Explorer, throw in the stick shift tranny. Grab the rear end for parts (if you have the solid axle in the explorer), seats from the ranger. Most of the guts from a ranger will interchange. 03-04 they began to make some changes to the Explorer shifting away from the Ranger platform. But many Ranger v-8s I have seen were taken from Explorers. But over the years I have seen crazy stuff done to retrofit things into cars. rwd 428 ford escort, 4 cyl full size caddy, 4x4 pinto and vega on a bronco frames. If you want to do these types of thing you better have the know how to do yourself or deep pockets to pay someone to do it for you. I really liked the low rider Explorer I saw with a 390 fe motor built for a drag racing but streetable application. He had to cut the firewall and redo some of the cabin floor and firewall.

Can I put my 97 4WD Ford Explorer XLT engine in a 2002 4WD Explorer Limited?

95-2000 have the 4 liter v-6 OHV cologne motor 97-2003 have the 4 liter v-6 SOHC cologne motor they over lap If it is the same v-6 you should have no problem. If they are ohv and sohc different motors they are the same exact size and will fit but electrics will be different. Make sure to take the computer too. If the motors are different you may need the trans connection plate also (this i am not so sure on) for the V-6 (two motors) they had 2 manual tranny units and 2 auto units. the 4 liter OHV had the m5od-r1 manual then the sport model had a m5od-r1hd manual, ok not confused yet then they had an automatic unit for both v-6s 95-96 4 speed 4r55e , then the automatic 5 speed 5r55e 97-2001. the 5 liter motor had a different automatic. So if it is the same motor and tranny combo it makes it all easier. Theoretically they are the same size but may need a tweek to fit or adapter plate for the tranny. The 95-2001 4 door should all interchange ok, in 2002 they still had the SOHC cologne v-6 with same trannys. Again 4 door model should be same sizes. hope this helps

I have a similar question, will any year 4.6L V-8 swap intowirh my 2003?

Will the tranny out of my 98 expedition fit a 05 f150?

Can i put a 4.0 engine out of a ford explorer 2000 into a 2003 ford explorer will it work

Normally I would say if it fits a Ford Ranger then it should go in an Explorer. Most folks want to get away from the Explorer V-6 cause of the timing chains issues and extreme cost of that repair alone. That will leave one engine choice (FACTORY) the v-8 302 (you will have to find a good Explorer with the 302 v-8 pull it and the computer modules and change a couple things in the explorer. This motor swap is also plausible for the Ford Ranger of similar years. It is easy if you have the same year make and model, a little bit more difficult if you change between years or if you move to a next gen vehicle. .That said I thought about making my Explorer a high MPG commuter and finding an Ford Ranger 4 cylinder to put in it. Many have said you cant cause the Explorer weighs more than the Ranger but I have the short 2 door sport (curb weight is almost identical). I will loose power but gain mileage. Would you drive an Explorer that gets 30mpg? and drives the same as a 4 cylinder Ranger? Most folks would never go smaller.

i was told a grand marquis has the same engine as the v8 explorers

4.0 moter is a 96 explorer. In a 2004 explorer you have to save all the part. Moter mount. Oil sensor crank sensor. By injeters connector on line plug in the wires. throttle plate paper gasket line up dill out holes bolt on. Save. The ac pump and line. Grind out the ac to fit around the wires on the throttle plate. Cut the line on the can side to plug in the to line on the 96 to the 2004. Cam sensor is a 3 cap by the 2 Cape and wire adapter. Plug in. Mufler adaptors plug in. egr and pickup tube goes on . Make a tube to go up to the platinum. Plug in wires. Thermos sensor on the right plug in. Save the pressure sensor by s water fitting to plug in to afill pressure regulators. And make return line in tank. By bigger fill pump to plug in. Wire in . On. 2000 to2002 its cable control it makes it aser. To plug in thotollplat and egr. Plug it in

Would a 2005 Ford Explorer 4.6 v8 motor swap to a 1997 Ford ranger 4.0 v6. Trying to beef up my little truck.

Will a transmission from a 2001 or 2002 ford ranger fit in a2002 ford explorer ? I hope this thread is still active. A friend of mine needs the answer pretty fast. Thank you . Both are 4.0 engines.

Alight guys, I have a 96’ Explorer Eddie Bauer AWD with the 5.0L, what motor can I get that’s new and more fuel efficient but still keep the AWD??? If I need to change the transmission too, so be it, but I have put to much money into this thing over the years and Not enough in the engine... Any and all suggestions are appreciated!

DaBull: The only alternative you have would be to find a remaufacturered 4.0 pushrod V6 engine, not a SOHC type. I believe the Vin engine code is "X". I had a 96 with this engine and it was a good reliable engine. It will have a lot less HP than the 5.0 you have, but is adequate. The cost of the remanufacturered (not rebuilt) engine would probably be around 3,000 plus installation. You will have to reprogram the PCM also. Not to mention wiring, sensors, valve covers, intake, throttle body, exhaust, etc. All at additional cost. .

Hey guys I'm thinking about swapping a 2002 ford explorer into a 2006 ford ranger any ideas on if this would work they r both 4.0 v6
