I don't know that I would do this swap because for all the work you could put in a 302. But I will say that if you have one laying around they are a great motor I had a 94 ranger with the 4.0 and it was a really nice motor. Good power and great mileage. why do you ask, do you have a 4.0 laying around?

You'll have to contact advanced adapters to see if they make an adapter for the engine to your transmission.

that is a nice motor and since you have it with the whole rig I would say go for it. if you use the exploder trans and transfer you could do a solid axle swap using a ford hp 44. take lots of picks and get to work.
