If anyone is still reading these older posts for advice be aware of the fact that the computers have an alphanumeric code on them. That code has to match EXACTLY the replacement code. The computers, for the most part, are not interchangeable. The computer for a BroncoII has to match number for number the one for your specific model. For instance, a 1989 BroncoII 2WD has its own specific computer. Even a 4WD standard model has a different computer than a 4WD Eddie Bauer. Rangers have their own specific computers. This is because every component that makes your model unique/different is controlled by the computer.
