A tool rental place will have it to rent, they are expensive enough to warrant a rental market.
Your 2001 will have the 4.0l SOHC engine, 2000 and earlier Rangers had the 4.0l OHV(pushrod) engine

Ask for Ford SOHC 4.0L V6 Cam Service Kit or Ford Master Cam Tool Kit

Good PDF to download here: https://www.otctools.com/sites/defau...67768_revb.pdf

Just print off the pages you need
