If you want to keep it a manual transmission you will need to get a 5 spd trans out of a 4.2L f-150. The bellhousing will bolt to the 5.0 and the shifter will come through the floor fairly close to the factory ranger location. As for a transfer case, a manual T-case from the f150 and maybe a bronco will work with a 1" or 2" body lift. These are all things i've read, i've never done the swap.

is their no way to sticky some of the info of good 5.0 swaps threads? It seems like every comment in this section is just a bunch of dreamers that ask the same damn thing........
I have 01, I have 06, I have a 99, How much will it cost?, what do I need? is it hard?
Like come on your swapping a frickin motor and trans and possibly getting into some wire some complex some not. If your asking if its gonna be hard your probley in over your head to start with.
As for cost you pay someone or a shop to do it, then ya its gonna cost a **** load, If your thrifty and find the junk yard gem to start from you can swap it pretty cheap.
Google goes a long way for this particular topic.
So I gotta say again the same questions yield the same answers in most of the threads in the 5.0 section. it gets tiring reading it all...............end of my little rant
