4.0ohv to 4.0sohc swap?
In my opinion, I wouldn't want to. I own a OHV 4.0, and I'm currently looking at the new SOHC 4.0s. During test drives, the newer SOHC engine does not impress me at all. It's very obvious that the OHV engine makes more power at low RPMs if you actually drive both. I still will probably buy a newer Ranger, but not because of the engine. Furthermore, I read more problems with the SOHC engine than I do with the OHV engine.
However, the transmission hasn't changed for many years in the Ranger, so I don't see why the swap couldn't be done. You would just have to round up the proper parts beforehand.
