Fairly nicely priced too. Depends on what grille you want, the 2wd XL grille (like in the auction) or an EDGE or XLT 4x4. I believe the auction includes EVERYTHING you need.
Good luck w/ what ever you do.

Heck yes you can!
And by the way.
94-97 = a generation
98-00 = a generation
01-03 = a generation
and then 04+ is a generation, maybe there's 06 or 07 bein diff.
Most people want the 01-03 swap.
AND yes, you could do this swap to make an old ranger look as if it was built in the 2000s! Hmm, I feel as if im missing something though..

Not w/out more parts you'll need to get the 98+ fenders, header panel, lights, and for the 04 front end, the power dome hood for sure. I think you'll need to get the newer style bumper as well because the 93-97 bumper is just relatively flat on top and the 98+ bumpers have somewhat of a curve to accomodate the grille.

anyways the older bumpers would look like ****.
Yah I think the fenders is what i was forgetting.
