[QUOTE="J.Rovirosa, post: 16493348, member: 76449"] I'll vouch for the 4.0 ohv being reliable; mine went 435k with only headgaskets done at 100k. The 4 speed auto attached to it not so much, as the truck had two Ford remanned units in it before I was rearended and it was totalled. Would still be driving it today, most likely. That said, the 4.0 sohc that replaced it is smooth and has a bit more power, but the timing chain guides really make it one to avoid. The engine has to be pulled to replace the one on the passenger's side and there isn't an upgraded version that addresses their failure points. It has gone 300k in my case, so I guess I can't ask too much more from it, but most haven't been so lucky. [/QUOTE]
