- 1993 Ford Ranger XLT
I have a 1993 Ford Ranger XLT 3.0 4x4 manual transmission that I bought about a month or so ago. It has 138,000 original miles and it was one owner. Recently, the truck has been grinding when I shift into reverse, even with the clutch all the way depressed. This doesn't happen every single time, but it happens often. Also, sometimes while I am driving, it becomes very hard to shift into any of the gears and I have to push really hard, but it doesn't happen with every shift. It recently has been getting worse, but will get easier and harder randomly as I drive. What could be the problem here? Synchros? Double clutching doesn't help. Also, it doesn't seem like the clutch is slipping. Has anyone had a similar experience? Help! Thanks!
