On a 90 ranger manual tranny v6 stuck in gear ive heard the forks get jammed ?

i had the same problame in my 1989 ranger xlt 4x4 i speed shifted a trans that wasent ment to and my trans got stuck in second and wouldent come out had to take it somewhere to get the forks in the trans replaced turns out i bent the forks and it wouldent come out of second

Check your clutch fluid,if empty,then your slave cylinder is bad.

Your clutch is not releasing properly. Is this the original clutch? Might be time for some maintenance.

DONT USE GEAR OIL IN A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. it will blow your seals out. the gear oil is too heavy and will block passages in the tranny

if this is a standard tranny the problem is more than likely in the top cover of the tranny one of two things either the nylon seats for the shifter ball are worn out, or the shift forks are worn down and have slipped out of the sleeve they sit in inside the tranny. can usually get a rebuilt top at a resonable cost pretty easy to change out. can be done through the floor board by removing the shifter and console.

i bet its in the linkege

i bet it has been making a growling noise for a while ? Whats going on now is the main shaft bearing has siezed on the shaft and or broke the shaft ,your best bet is to find a used tranny fixing your will cost more then a used one

Can;t be sure on this one except to tell you that you may have a bent or broken shift fork in the tranny. The only way to find out is to remove the shifter from the top of the tranny and see if you can see the fork and move it in and out of gear. If not the next step is to remove the tranny and take it apart. With the information you gave that is about all I can help you with unless there is more info you can give to me.

I agree, sounds like a bent shift fork.

try bleeding your clutch
