1993 ranger loud whine in gear & slight noise in neutral?
Ford ranger 1993 stick.
So I had a low whining sound that would be slightly noticeable in first gear. But then I went to my mom's and had the truck sitting for 5 days, I live in Minnesota & the 10 inches of snow and cold hit. When I got home I started and moved it, seemed fine. Still a little high pitched whine. That night I had to work and the whining sound was louder thru 1st 2nd & 3rd. On my way home from work I shifted into 5th. (4Th gear had no whine sound) and noticed the 5th had a low whine sound. Was going about 75 when my truck made like shifting without clutch engaging and just shut off. I popped the hood and the belt and pulleys are all tight. Got back in and started. Now in idle there's a noise. 1St 2nd 3rd all are extremely loud whine/grind sound. 4Th has a low hum. Limped home in 4th gear. I can still shift into the first 4 gears( didn't try putting it in 5th) but there's that terribly loud sound. It was difficult to shift at first but was easier after a couple stop & go's. Got home and shut it off. Checked fluids & there good. Didn't check the tranny fluid because it was ******* cold and I didn't feel like getting under the truck to check. So I'm wondering what you would think it could be… & if it helps at all the sound started happening after my dad tied chains to my truck & to a tree to make it fall in a certain direction. And he said it sounded like low power steering for some reason that I forgot, but topped off PSteering fluid.
If this is a standard shift transmission---manual transmission---I would start with the throwout bearing. If your dad rode the clutch while pulling on the tree that would do it.
Internal bearings that's why you get it in certain gears and not others. Find local shop at ATRA.COM for road test and estimate to repair since the transmission has to come out to repair it

Any ideas?
- Will a 1993 3.0 Ford Ranger engine fit and work with my 1995 Ford ranger that has a bad motor? My 1995 ford ranger 3.0 5 speed ran hot and cracked the heads and spun a bearing. Will a 3.0 out of a 1993 Ford Ranger fit and work? My concerns are the 1993 has a distributor and my 1995 does not. Are the water pumps and accessories the same?
