Looking for a 2003.5-2009 4.0 SOHC

I know this is just a shot in the dark, but this is for all the people that had a 2003 + 4.0 SOHC in their Ranger and converted to a 5.0 and is located within a 500 mile radius of Kentucky.
If you still have your 4.0 and all the accessories, I'd like to take them off your hands.
I'm really looking for a motor that has less than 90K miles on it.
(Might be interested in a 2001.5 -2002 if the timing chain tensioner has been replaced)

Thanks,

Brian

Yes, I tried searching junkyards in my area about 5 weeks ago and I actually contacted one of the yards that came up in the search. I offered them $1175 for a 4.0 SOHC with all the accessories and the guy was like "Let me kick that around for a couple of days"
When he got back with me, he told me that he could do it but he didn't know about the rad. hoses. I couldn't believe I offered him that much and then he couldn't let two rad hoses go with the engine.
These guys around here that sell used parts want to sell each part separately. When you buy a engine around here basically you're only getting a long block. Sometimes your lucky to get the injectors and the upper intake. And don't even think about asking to buy the whole truck. They'll tell you some kinda BS like the title is scraped and they're not allowed to do that.
