    Variants of M5OD-R1 (M5R1) transmissions

    I had an issue with my 1990 2.9L Ford Ranger 4x4 where the synchro teeth for 5th and reverse were ground down, along with the teeth on the slider. I've ordered a new slider and new synchros but the slider that came in seems to be for a M5R1-15 transmission and looks to be incompatible with my...
  2. M5ODR1 rebuild

    I'm looking to do a full rebuild of my 2000 Mazda B4000s transmission, it's got the 4.0L, 4WD, M5ODR1 trans, the case is spotless, but the guts are trashed, I know the bell housings are different for different engines, but can I take the internals from another M5ODR1 of a different engine and...
  3. M5OD-R1 Slave Cylinder fitting blew off...?

    My clutch pedal felt stiff on my way home today. I tried pumping it a bit when I got home and noticed it wasn't getting near the floor/stop. Then it locked up pretty good, and I guess I pushed it a little hard...and the fitting for the hydraulic line blew off. And no, not the quick disconnect...

    for example i found an m5r1 from the yard that is 2wd and i have the tail housing from another fm146 4x4 can i put the mitsubishi tail housing on the m5r1? or the one from my truck that i actually would like to use that has a manual shift lever.
  6. '94 4x4 - Good idea to swap A4LD to M5R1?

    I have a 1994 Ranger 4.0L 4x4 with 170k on it and the A4LD transmission (also has 6" lift, 4.56 gears, and 33s for what it's worth). Runs fine, no problems, but it has high miles and I am thinking of the future. I've read the tech articles on swapping in a manual. I am not a gearhead and will...
  7. M5R1 popping ut of 5th gear

    Rebuilt the SOB and everything was working fine, then one day she started popping out of 5th and wont stay in! I can hold it in while I am driving, but it wont stay. I inspected all of the gears before reassembling, but maybe I didn't notice some wear on the 5th gear counter? I did in fact amke...
  8. Need Some Transmission Advice

    I just picked up a 93 Ranger 4.0 4x4. It has a M5R1 in it. When I go to shift in to first sometimes it catches and sometimes it doesnt. When it does catch and I engage the clutch again 4 out of 5 times it will come out of gear. If I get second to catch and let off the gas a little sometimes if...
