The TK-5 is probably the best trans Ford put in any of the Rangers. Mine is an 87 with 240,000 miles on it and no problems.

For the last 20 K it has been growling with the trans in neutral and clutch released. The input shaft bearing will get replaced the next time I need to replace the clutch.

AFAIK the 87 Ranger only used the TK manual trans. But check the trans code on the drivers door The Toyo kogyo code is 5
