For everything to work properly the other body would need to be a 00/01 as they were bastard yrs. with a lot of changes from prior years. You will need to swap out the ECU also I think all wiring is in place on the 2wd's that is needed for 4wd.
In addition it changed to a coil pack ignition those 2 yrs also added additional emissions sensors in exhaust to run the computer properly. An earlier model swap could be done but not worth the trouble IMHO, others may have a different opinion.
