99 explore engine swap?
Hi, my engine in my 1999 explore xl is starting to tick and is basically ready to be rebuilt. I have the oportunity to buy a 1997 explorer engine with half the km. I was just wondering if this would be an easy swap considering their both the 4L engine? Also would the parts be interchangable?

Thanks!
