My 19 year old son has a "94 ranger that the transmission went out all the way it does not move forwards or backwards a couple weeks before that the front seal blew out he put new seals front & back in and then the transmission just stopped working it was a 1 way trip anyway i believe it has the A4LD transmission in it because the trans code on the door is T it also has the 2.3L engine & i can not find a transmission anywhere for it but i have a friend that has a 2.3L motor & transmission out of he thinks an "81 or "82 mercury cougar just sitting there all wrapped up in plastic and is willing to part with it but I'm not sure it will fit because the car truck thing can someone tell me if it will fit what i should look for so on & so forth from what I've read i think its a C-3 or C-5 transmission or is there any other transmission that will fit in the truck without much modifications because I'm not that good of a mechanic at all as I'm sure everyone has figured out by now in my post and $$$ is very tight now too so any & all help & suggestions are greatly appreciated he needs this truck going so he can get a job & get his life started as we live in a small town with a population of about 500 people so you have to drive for miles to find work Sorry for such a long post.

TIA

I don't know the answer to your question about the tranny swap, but if you don't get any replys here, maybe post your tranny questions on the FTE drivetrain forum, bet somene there knows the answer.
