So this past Monday we drove my old Ranger across town to replace an engine with a nasty rod knock. No trans problems at all.
We yanked the engine and replaced it with another. It started and ran perfectly on the first turn of the key, but now the shifter will not make the trans go into / out of any gear.
It's actually stuck in "a" gear. Which gear, I'm not sure. We jacked the rear end up and let out the clutch to see if that would free something up but it did not.
With the engine running, the clutch will engage and disengage normally. The tires turn when enagaged just like you would expect. It will idle with the clutch disengaged and the tires do not spin.
It feels like something inside the trans is in a bind and will not allow the shifter to move the internals. Without the shifter on, you can see that the centering spring is in place and acting normal.
Any ideas? I seriously do not want to pull the trans again. Thanks.
