Default M5R1 swapping
[align=left]I have a 95 2.3 Ranger with the M5R1 and need to know if I can use a M5R1 from a 2000 2.5 Ranger? I believe they are the same except for the tail housing, one for electric speedo and one for cable. Any help about this swap will be greatly appreciated!!!

Default RE: M5R1 swapping
If overdrive is involved - don't touch it. Take it to a shop. The OD spring when released can kill without the proper removal tool.
