- 2003 Ranger Edge 4.0 4x4
hi guys
I am a newbie on the forum and have a few questions.. I have been doing a lot of research on the 5r55e (week) and the tr55s/w (stronger). my ranger is getting up there in mileage and is starting to have some shifting issues. I would rather just swap out the 5r55e for a s/w as I am also planning a SC install when I rebuild the engine. I have read the 5r55s 4.0 2wd swap sticky. His stand alone system would work.. but I would have to turn off the auto functions in my ecu.
my main questions is
1. can the auto functionality be turned off in my stock ecu? if so.. what would be the best tuner to use?
2. could the s/w be plugged into the stock ecu and just reprogram or replace the ecu? keeping in mind the need to reprogram Vin and millage and pats after ecu swap..
3. can my stock 03 ranger transfer case be bolted up to the s/w?
4. am I crazy?
