Well yesterday I did get a call back from the dealership. The parts manager advised me that he did find out that a 98 and 99 4x4 5R55E explorer transmissions have identical part numbers.

But since you had an extra hole in the 98, if I was to use a 97 tranny I would be 1 hole short. I got an $800 price tag for a used tranny twice. I did find one that is $400, but it has 124,000 miles on it. But I called 23 places, I only found 3 places that could get one. This is what I keep...

I have one with no tranny, it originally had the 4x4 5R55E. I need to find a replacement but I do not know what else I can get the tranny from. I was told (by the dealership) I can only get it from a 1998 4x4 Explorer with the 5R55E and a 4.0 OHV engine. I was also told (by a transmission...

I have compiled a list of info as a reference so you can see the Different transmissions and their gear ratios What they came in, as well as years Transfer cases A list of door codes for the rear axle to find out your gear set and see whether it is a conventional open differential or a...

Can you send me the site where it says that the ratio is 2.72:1? I'll see if I can find out the correct ratio.

I have not physically checked this..... Here is where I got that info http://therangerstation.com/tech_library/TransferCases.html

Yes it is, you have the M50d R2 Yes, you are correct.

I got this info from TRS and other RBV owners

Just wondering if anyone knows the length of the 4x4 5R55E..... Glacier991, were you able to obtain that info?

The 2wd 5R55E transmission will not work in my 4x4 ranger unless I rebuild it with the 4x4 output shaft. Could I get the computer from a manual Ranger or Explorer with a 4.0 SOHC and put the A4Ld from a 92 to 94 Explorer?

Well there goes the idea of using that tranny!

Yeah, I do not see any difference in the gearing. They are both chain driven, and the main reason the chain breaks is from lack of maintenance, not too much power. I'll keep the 1350... after all I already have it! I just hope the 5R55E mounts to the same holes as the old A4LD, or is at least...

I found that my transfer case will bolt up to the tranny. I know that the motor fits right onto the 2.9 motor mounts. I know everything I am going to take from the explorer. However, I do not know if the tranny will bolt into the A4LD location... I still need the length. Hopefully it is the...
