slipping

I have a 2001 Ford Ranger 3.0 L V6, with a 5R44E transmission. I bought it off a previous owner knowing it had transmission issues. The guy towed his boat on the highway and went over 3rd and must have blew out the torque converter. It would hard shift and slip out of gear. Also It would not...

I have a 2003 Ford Ranger Fx4 Level II with an automatic transmission. The 4wd system seems to work properly until you start to go up any moderate to steep hills putting additional load on the system. This is when a loud clunking/slipping starts to happen every 5-10 seconds. The first time it...

Hey guys I have a 1999 ford ranger 4.0 4x4, am having problems with my automatic transmission. Heres the problem. After driving it for about 10-15mins the OD light comes on and flashes. Once it starts flashing, feels like the tranny is slipping and it shifts threw the gears hard. It doesnt do...

Howdy! I've got a 2002 4.0L V6 4x4 Automatic, 160K miles, with some transmission issues. Short version, symptoms: Place selector in "R", no movement, akin to being low on fluid. Place selector in "D", no movement, akn to being low on fluid. Place selector in "2" or "1", movement in the correct...

I am wondering if my 87 ranger 4x4 A4LD is savable with a valve body rebuild. I just picked up this truck cheap knowing it had problems. I will try to say as much as I know about it. Clock shows 26k miles so i assume 126k. old township truck Park- works, I can rev engine reverse- Does not move...

Hi there gang. I'm hoping that some of you can help direct me, namely by either confirming my theory, or if not, preventing me from going off the deep end! I've got a 2001 3.0l 2WD with the notorious 5r44e. The truck has 208k on it, most of which were put on by my father-in-law. He was pretty...

I have a 1991 Ranger XLT w/2.4 and auto trans w/129000 miles. Occasionally the engine will " bog down", act as if it's starving for fuel and I will push the peddle to the floor and it seems the transmission slips a bit then it will "catch" and start running fine. It does not do this alot, and...

I have a 2002 Ranger 4.0 Extended cab with 47k miles and the 5R55E 5 speed transmission. I don't want to rebuild the whole trans. When the truck is cold and you first take off in drive 1-2 shift is delayed, seems like it holds on to 1st gear too long, but does shift into 2nd. When it warms...

I'm driving up a steep snow covered mountain road yesterday with 4wd engaged (Overdrive off). I heard a "thunk" and suddenly felt the ass end of the truck slide out (it had slipped back to 2wd) I let my foot off the gas, regained control of the truck and started to slowly accelerate again. The...
