was up everyone? I have a couple of questions you might be able to help with. first i am making my own leafspring mounts(so i only ned to do it on time) but both mine are broken so i cannot get good mesuments, specs on hole spacing,and width from top hole to middle holes and to bottom center hole. second question, 1995 ranger with 4r44e trans. 4.0L, will a 5r55e work and would i get 5 speeds? wht mods whould be needed to make that work if any? trans is on its way out and want to relace with newer preferably auto 5speed.

Welcome to the forums, yes swaping out to a 5R55E will give you a 5-speed auto. I'm not completly sure but it should be a direct bolt on. You may to need to swap out computers so it reads correctly. Ask your question in the tranny tech section, here:
