Well I've always been a die hard ford man favorite personal and farm vehicles for me, Started off at 16 with a ford ranger splash. It was a blast and still runs but i moved up to a 02 explorer xls only to find trans is short lived... little dissapointed
I have i believe a 5r55w transmission which is on the way out, estimates to repair or replace are pretty high about 3000 and up... so I have been reading the boards on here about swapping in a different trans. I love this car interior exterior are in great condition and love everything about it. Bottom line i want to put a different trans in (hopefully manual if possible). otherwise its off to buy a new car which i would hate. Since this is the new member forums i will now move to proper area to ask for thoughts help or ideas for what i can do. feel free to pm me i love this site and am looking forward to getting ideas for upgrade and mods to use on my explorer. Thanks.
