Can you put a motor from a 96 Ford Explorer into a 99 Ford Explorer? Also is a 4.0L a valve bender?? Bought a car from a guy that said the timing chain broke and wondering if I should just replace the motor or try to fix the one thats in it.

yes a 96 motor will fit into a 1999 vehicle ... sometimes valve damage can occur .. it is impossible to say for sure
