C4 in a newer Ranger

[IvanDan]

I have a 1997 4.0L Ranger with the 5 speed auto right now and I have a feeling its just not gonna hold up. Anyone have the 411 on this swap? I heard a rumor that its a real pain in the ass and almost not even worth the head ache....true?!?!?!?!? Any shops done this before? Contact info?

that 5 spd auto trans has alot of electronics that are linked to the computer so do some research on the computer thing you may have to switch to and older computer and wire harness? other then that its all about changing out parts. your speedo may be an issue to?
