Transmission swap

Hi guys. I have a 2001 F150 super crew with a 5.4 l motor . I have a chance to buy a 2003 Explorer in very good shape , but needs a transmission. What are the chances the transmission out of my F150 will work in the Explorer?

Exactly! They are different transmissions and will not interchange.
