My 1999 ranger sport 4x4 4.0L V6 had 200k miles when It was sold. I had meticulously maintained it since I inherited it from my grandfather's estate. I think it would have easily done another 100k miles. I sold it to a friend who bought it for his daughter after she had her first child. I made sure everything on it worked. Unfortunately she let the boyfriend drive it and he put it on its

In not sure how to answer your question since you have a replacement vehicle. Older rangers can be had at around the price of the engine swap, so I dont know if I'd go through the trouble of swapping out a V6 for another V6. If you were still loving your ranger I'd recommend doing the V8 swap. I'm guessing the ranger is on borrowed time since the jeep arrived

If you need a light truck around to do some dirty work and keep the miles down on the jeep I'd just look for another ranger if it were me.

I dont have a jeep or s 2nd truck. I'm still in love with my 07 ranger so I opted to for the V8 swap even though mine only had a 140k or so and had zero issues.
