4.0 V6... how long??
Our '94 Ranger's 5 speed tranny finally died. I'm thinking about replacing the tranny since the truck's in otherwise excellent shape. Here's the problem.. the truck's got 248,000 miles on it. My question is.. do the 4.0 V6 engines last well over 250,000 (when properly maintained)... ?

I called around and the only found one tranny that they "think" is good (30 day warrantee, etc..). Slept on it.. and decided to fix it. In fact, until the engine has a major internal issue, we've decided to keep it going. Just ordered a rebuilt tranny a few minutes ago. Our new goal is to get it to 300K!. (plus this gives me time to save some more down-payment $$ for the new MUSTANG).
