He needs a tcase. The lever you sent is correct for his trans, the lever on his tcase is wrong. A4LD/m50d lever that goes on the tcase is longer and clocked slightly different.
Not to question you but are you sure? I think it’s my fault to a degree. Look at the shifter arm that goes to the transfer case. It say A4LD on the one I gave him. I’ve got 3 in the barn. One automatic and 2 manual. I went out and looked and by god they are different. The manual arm is 90 degree doglegged. The automatic is slightly offset.
I appreciate that I mean things happen but id hate to put u out like that you already went beyond by not charging, I think this might be an issue of my 83 transfercases being different compared to the later years, I agree the shifter arm is also different and that's adding to the problem
Like I said. When I pull the one off I’ll take some comprehensive photos with tape measure in view. We can work on it from there. I appreciate your understanding. I’d like to see you get your rig together. Too bad you live so far away. If the rain keeps me in ( ranger is not at my house) I’ll do the measurements on my rigs. See if there is a length change between them.
Then the manual isn't a m5od, they came out around 1990
What was the original transmission?
It's the manual 5 speed out of an 83 4x4 ranger, the one that takes gear oil. The shifter on my truck currently A 2.3 4SPD 4X4 MANUAL has the same shifter
That I could understand. I do have a 89 BII with the M50D from a 94 explorer on a 1350 tcase. It’s outside in the rain now or I’d go get a look at it too. The explorer was an electric shift so I know the transfer case shifter is the 89s with an FM146 originally.
