The 1993 in your profile will only have the Mazda m5od-r1 transmission in it.

ok trusting you, but wondering where you have gotten your information. for future plans on my truck

 

[Allis50]

and where might i buy one, because autozone.com does not have those numbers on their site.

Either a transmission shop or a junkyard will have one. A parts store might be able to get one (they usually have rebuilder type places for engines and transmissions) but you will have to talk to a live person.

thanks big help so far. hope i can find something for my truck

I know this because that is the only manual transmission that Ford put the them after 1989.

You can get a price on a rebuilt unit from your local Ford dealer as well.

i have a strange feeling that allis50 and leandrorange are the same person

 

[Allis50]

no i am only one person on here, struggle enough with making one account have no need to make two, i just want to fix my tranny. can a person interchange a tran in these rangers or is it best to still with orignal? i only haul horse/cattle feed and wood in the truck it doesn't have a hitch to pull anything
whats your thought

If you are talking about interchanging a manual with an automatic...

* first you are doing it backwards most people go from auto to manual
* second, it will cost you more than putting another manual behind it as you will have to add shift linkage, the column shift lever and other automatic only items, plus (not sure on this tho) your driveshaft may be different.

If you are asking about interchangability between years of Rangers, I believe that any 89 and newer manual transmission will work. Also the 94+ Mazda B series trucks will work.

Good luck

What engine is in your truck?

maybe he means swapping it out with a completely diff trans he has lying around?
