Climate control swap

You need to check what kind of blend door control you have compared to the one that you want to install. Most Ranger/Explorers have an electric motor that controls the blend door from the temperature ****. A few years have a push/pull cable arrangement instead - 2002 Ranger might be one of them. They look the same until you pull the panel.

A little zombie thread here, but I'd figure I'd bring back this one instead of creating a NEW similar thread. This is why we use SEARCH noobs!!!! LOL
I've seen a member on here has the EATC (which I believe is the electronic version of the Expo HVAC unit) and I like the style of it. There are only a million on eBay and I was wondering if the member who has done this had a how-to or could answer a few questions about the swap. I'm guessing it's not just a direct swap for plug-and-play action.
Any info on this?

I'd call it an 8 out of 10 on the mod scale. There is quite a bit of wiring and you do have to pay close attention to make sure that you pick the right options for the year of your Ranger and the year of the Ex donor. The length of the How-to actually makes it look harder than it is because John was extremely thorough in its presentaion and it covers a variety of combinations. If you read through it, there is almost no fabrication involved. The most tedious part is swapping the blend door actuator because of its location. It's mostly just wiring and bolt in junkyard parts.
