Have a look here to see if you can ID it: http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/AutoTrans.shtml

Any trans from a 2.9l or 4.0l could have been used, but if you know iit is newer and that would be a good guess then look at the 4R55E

Automatics have an integrated bell housing, so to bolt to your 4.0l, trans had to come from a 4.0l(2.9l had same block as 4.0l)

aerostar had a A4LD I thought the rangers did too.

4.0l Ranger had A4LD from '90(first year) to '94, then 4R55E, '95 to '01

I looks like a4LD the gasket does but when I went to get the auto parts the filter is smaller so I ask for a 95 and it was the same one as my old one
