yeah I did not have the middle tie downs.
Or the engine cover.
And I never installed the tailgate damper.
I'm surprised the poor truck is still on the road. :(
And I still haven't heard any news from the dealer... :(
I am truly sorry sir that I failed you James. :(
My gear was at home, I was on Interstate 45 in the fast lane heading to Houston when my truck started acting like this. I already had plans made for a full day with someone I see rarely. My mind was on things.
Wait...what am I doing here...I...
Well I was hoping that I won that lottery and wasn't going to have it happen to me.
Wrong. Nope. Not that lucky.
Going to a friends today I got, I think, The Tranny Trouble.
I find it awesomely crazy as well...I have at home my Mishimoto pan, fluid, and other accessories....was going to...
Offer is still available - but if there is no option for local pick up they will make you buy per case which is 6 per. I figure having 12 isn't a bad thing and its free shipping.

SO...reading all this I have to ask a question. We are, here in this forum, a microcosm of the total number of Rangers floating out there with 10R80's. This is, in form, function and build, the same as the F150 transmission.
That being said...how many of this issues are being noted vs the total...
I will say that I would not have had a problem with a 2.5 Duratec or a 2.0 Duratorq similar to what was provided in Mexico. I didn't really need the EB but it was in the vehicle I wanted. :P
As an aside here the new Ford Godzilla engines have a nice footprint size-wise and would be interesting in a Ranger
heck with it being ford I wonder if the stock ECU would be compatible with the transmission? :D
For most things I get the LS swap as being easy peasy especially when dealing with that goofy crap that Ford did with the oil pumps being driven by a damn rubber band...er..."KEVLAR BELT" on the Coyotes.
Stupid. :|
