flywheel will need to be changed to mate up to the "truck" tranny i believe. other than that it should be a bolt and go.
does he have the complete harness from the donor or is a patch and play?

Probably a 2.8 or 2.9, definetly goto therangerstation everything has been discussed there.

I remember there were some complications with a/c vehicles as the heater box needs to be cut and or a 1" body lift.
