SPORT TRAC 2002

Hello to all the forum members. I was surfing the net and came across your site. I just recently bought a 2002 ST automatic with the 4.0 SOHC motor with vin code E and not a 4 x4. I got the truck for a great deal not to pass on. It is a stock factory truck but soon to change. But before it hits the pavement one samll issue. The motor is blown and not worth fixing. So my choices have been narrowed. I am considering buying a ford ranger wrecked with the 4.0 engine 2001 vin code E. Just because it is not easy locating that motor from a ST. My question is will this motor bolt on and are there modifications to be done? Also can you advise me of any other trucks { year, make. vin code } with a 4.0 sohc that will fit and bolt on with none or minimal modifications. Hope to hear from the forum advice to guide me on the right track. p/s: any forum member know of any used running engines in miami,fl give me a shout. I need to get the truck back on the road asap. Thank You JR
