Default Mustang Engine into Ranger

Well my stepdads engine blew in his ranger and i was wondering how hard of a swap it was

since im getting a new engine for my car soon i was thinkin why not just toss the old in his truck?

well i think its a 98 ranger
its an auto and has 4wd

is that a problem comming off the stock t5 in my car?
