manual transmission

Howdy there, I am trying to figure out the bolt sizes for my Ranger. It's a 1997 4.0 Manual transmission. The M50D-R1. I'd like to replace the bolts while I got the trans out.

My Ranger has run great for years, but recently developed a loud knock which seems to be coming from the transmission. I know it is not the clutch, as I already took it to a shop which said the noise was from the clutch and they replaced the clutch. But it did not help at all. The clutch was...

Help! I recently pulled my shifter to install new pins and gaskets as there was a lot of play. Upon installation it feels like it will only go into second gear and the truck is stuck in reverse. Any ideas on how I can fix this? 2000’s 2.3l M5OD transmission

I have a 2006 Ford Ranger XLT 4.0 manual Just driving down the road I lost power to any gear i tried and the truck wouldnt go over 20, also in a sort of limp mode chugging back and forth. I limped it to a part store and towed it home. I have 0 check engine lights, replaced the fuel pump...

I have a 2004 4x4 Ranger with the 4.0l SOHC and I believe the M50D-R1HD manual transmission (and an electronic t-case). I pulled the transmission to replace the clutch and these two pieces of rubber fell out. I know the one on the left goes on the shifter because I saw it before I took out the...

i have been hunting for this for a long time, literally the final piece to my swap. the 1989+ manual transmission + manual transfer case shifter boot. i posted this before but to no avail, hopefully someone else may have one or know where one is in a junkyard, a yard sells a shifter boot for...

97 Ranger 4.0 (Manual Transmission) Previously i had a bad bendix wear down the teeth on the flywheel, replaced the starter but have been having to “Bump Start” it the last couple months. Ive been able to push it myself and start it with it just barely rolling with no problems. Now it won’t...

I’ve been looking around trying to find anything on a transmission swap for a Bronco II and haven’t found anything. Has anyone done a 6-speed in a little b2? I’m currently running my stock FM145 5-speed on my freshly rebuilt 2.9l. I plan on swapping to the 4.0l after my motor goes and saw that...

Hello! It's my first time to the forum :) I need to replace the engine on my newly-acquired 1992 Ford Ranger: 2.3 L, 4 cylinder, 5-speed, floor shifter. When looking for replacement (used) engines, do I have to match all these specs (1992, 2.3 L, 4 cylinder, 5-speed, floor shifter) or can...

I have owned a Ranger for about a year. However, I work on vehicles so most defects are understandable. I don’t know anything about clutch plates or the inner workings of a transmission. It would be a good idea to drop anything down here that might come up. My issue is with my third gear syncro...

Hello everyone, thanks for having me and thanks in advance for you help. Got the 2.5L 1999 xlt reg cab 2wd manual and want to do the 5.0 swap. Searching for the best donor vehicle. Do i stick with a 98+ and deal with PATS or earlier model and deal with fuel system differences? Also i want to...

Manual 2002 4.0 ranger 4x4 with 176k miles. The truck is getting very hard to shift. I push harder than I should to get it into gear at stops. While driving it is hit or miss. Even into 3rd sometimes I have lots of trouble. Once in gear it doesn't pop out or grind. Here is history: Bought the...

Hi, I have a 2008 Ranger ext. cab 4x4 Manual Transmission with only 45,000 Miles. I'm the original owner, well kept. For about the last 15,000 Miles I find it difficult to shift into first gear or reverse. -Clutch isn't soft, feels normal -Gears are not grinding (although on some rare...

I have a 1983 Ranger with a 2.3 and a manual 4-speed w/overdrive. I am planning our my restoration and am not really sure what I want to do about the engine. The stock 2.3 was rated around 85hp. Option 1: Rebuild the stock 2.3 and then add a few upgrades like cold-air, k&n filter, better...

Hi All, Well I'm new to the ranger family. Recently I bought a 1993 Ford Ranger XLT 4.0 manual with 150k original miles. So far I am in love! I bought knowing what was wrong with it, that basically only being that I need to replace the fuel filler neck assy. So that will be my weekend...

Hi, I've got a 1996 2WD 3.0L Ford Ranger with a Mazda M50D-R1 Transmission in it. The transmission itself is in great shape, but as of late I've been having problem after problem with my clutch assembly. First the slave cylinder went, then a week after having it fixed the clutch master cylinder...

Hi not sure if this is the right place to post this so let me know if I'm suppose to put this elsewhere. I have a 1988 ford ranger stx with a build date of 10/87 trans code d so it should be a Mitsubishi fm14? I know 87/88 was two different ones so no idea which one it is. The problem is 5th is...
