RE: in need of alot of help
You're working with two totally different trucks which share no common parts. Yes you will have to change emissions, wire harnesses
the whole lot. Suggestion to save you time & headaches, sale the ranger parts & buy a used 2.2L or possibly you may be able to trade.

Yes, Mazda trucks arn't really Ford related until 94 and later. From what I understand 93 and earlier ford used some of mazda's designs and tweaked them to make them a little more reliable. After 1994 ford and mazda started some sort of trade agreement where ford would produce mazda trucks in the U.S. and mazda would produce ford trucks in europe. I don't know all the exact details but thats what I hear.
