Hey there, I've got an 83' Ranger 2.3L 4x4 with a TK4. I finally found a TK5 transmission with a 4WD tailshaft housing that's in really good shape. Only difference is, it's meant for a V6. I know the bellhousing bolt patterns are different but the TK4 bellhousing is interchangeable with this TK5, correct me if I'm wrong on that.
What I wanted to know is if the input shafts are any different since it is meant for the 2.8L? Would I have to change out the input spline to a different one that'll fit my 2.3L? Or is it plug in and play.
