Checking classifieds on diesel truck websites or wrecking yards. I have purchased 5 used ones in the last 2 months and have not paid more than $100 for any of them. They are available from NAPA and Carquest/O'Reilly/Bumper to Bumper but they'll run nearly $200 before the core charge (which I don't think they'll care if you give them an XLE4 for a core because they don't know).

It's a plug and play deal when going from a DPC-402 to a 422. It's just not as easy to go the other way since the BARO sensor input on the older truck is external for the XLE4; it'll shift weird/hard and have a check engine light. You won't have any problems with a DPC-422 swap into your dad's truck.
