Order engine parts for a 2001. Everything else for a 99.

Not so fast. Whatever engine you had in there before, the V6 OR V8, that you replaced with the Sport TRAC'S V6 OR V8, don't forget that the radiator HOSES may connect to their respective radiators differently. so be sure of that before deciding on a radiator. IF either engine can connect to either radiator, the V-8's radiator will provide additional cooling capacity for BOTH the engine and the transmission (if its an automatic) over the V-6s radiator. If you do towing or haul heavy loads that aspect might be a factor to consider.
