Hello,
ok heres the deal i have a 96 ranger 3.0 2wd. The trans went out and i could only find a 5r55e out of a 98. They look identical and from what i've been able to read are interchangeable. I had to swap the bell housing so i put the new front pump on the older bell housing because the newer front pump has the new needle bearing design. So that was no problem. THen i had to swap the tailshaft housings because the speed sensors were different and the wiring harness wouldn't plug up. That was no problem either. Also i swapped over the neutral safety switch which also was fine. Now i've filled the tranny and started it up and i have absolutely no gears. i've let it run for 30 minutes putting it through the gears and NOTHING. Now it seems to me that it has to be electrical. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
