I have a 99 Ranger with the 5spd auto. my tranny just started makin a loud squeal from the front of the tranny. Sounds like its in the bell housing. Kind of sounds like a belt squeal. But its the tranny. It does it when i first start it real bad. Then it will go away and just happen off and on. I have no clue what it is but it cant be good. Any help would be nice

It could be many of things. Unfortunatly most of them will require the transmission coming out of the vehicle to check and confirm.

Does it change at all when you press in the clutch?

It could be the pilot bearing or the slave cylinder are a few things that first come to mind.

It has a whole bunch of clutches, but I don't think that's the problem.

If it doesn't matter what gear you're in or whether or not the transmission is shifting, I'd suspect the pump pooped itself.

check to see if the sincronizer is your problem . i had this happen before on an explorer. the sincro is where the distributor used to be. it is right at the back of the block and exteneds into the bell housing makeing it seem like it is comeing from the bell housing. it is repairable. the shaft is is siezing on the bushing you will need a special tool to instal it afterwards.
