Difference in transmissions from 93-2001? (V8 vs. V6?)

[TRAXX]

Both my parents drive explorers. My Dad a 93 and my Mom a 2000 4x4 V6. Is the transmission the same in those two cars? I know the 4x4 has a transfer case but other than that is the actually tranny the same?

My reason for asking is there is a local guy parting out a 98 V8 Explorer and was thinking it might be a good idea for my parents to grab that transmission for when the inevitable happens. Will that trans bolt up to either of their explorers? What is a good price for a used 4R70W? He said there was about 50k miles on it.

Um the 93 and 00 use a different trans. The v-8 uses a different trans. None of them would swap to each other

Th '93 has a A4LD transmission which is a 4 spd trans.
The 2000 has electronic shift trans called the 5R55E which is a 5 spd trans. The '98 explorer V8 has a electronic shift 4R70W which won't fit on the v6 engines. Different bellhousing bolt pattern.
