I've got a 95 Ranger Splash with a 2.3 4 cylinder manual transmission. I was driving home from work and shifted fine til I went from 4th to 5th when it got stuck in 4th gear and WOULD NOT COME OUT! I took the shifter and the top completely out and got it to go into neutral. Everything was fine after putting it all back together, no grinding and somewhat smooth shifting. Later in the day after driving it all around, it did it again and hung back up in 4th gear again!! Should I have to replace the trans or would a shifter rebuild kit solve this issue?? Please help, any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys

 

I would start with changing the fluid.
