Zumbrota Drivetrain M5R1 5-Speed Manual Transmission for Ford Ranger | Explorer 2001-2011 - RMTM5R1F-8TE

If you’re in the market for a reliable manual transmission, let me tell you about the Zumbrota Drivetrain Manual Transmissions. These guys really know what they’re doing when it comes to rebuilding. They don’t just slap things together and call it a day; they’ve got a solid three-step inspection process that ensures you’re getting something you can trust.

First off, they kick things off with a pre-inspection. This isn’t just a quick glance; they’re checking for case cracks, excessive wear, and any OEM-specific issues that might pop up. If something’s off, they catch it right there. Then, they dive into the nitty-gritty of measuring component parts to make sure everything aligns with OEM specs. It’s all about precision here. Finally, there’s a post-build inspection where they fine-tune everything to meet their high standards. You can bet they’re not cutting corners.

What really impressed me is how thorough they are with the internal parts. They check for gear wear, make sure the mainshaft is straight, and test the synchronizers. Each unit gets dyno-tested too, so you know it can handle real-world scenarios without a hitch. Plus, they replace all the seals, which is a must if you want to avoid leaks down the line.

And let’s talk about cleanliness. Zumbrota goes the extra mile with their hydro-blast rinse and sandblasting procedure for both internal and external parts. They even have a proprietary shot-enticed deep cleaning process that sets them apart in the remanufacturing game. It’s not just about looking good; it’s about ensuring everything runs smoothly.

Now, for those of you wondering if this will fit your ride, here’s the scoop: it’s compatible with the Ford Explorer Sport 4WD from 2001 to 2002, the Ford Explorer Sport Trac 4WD from 2001 to 2003, the Ford Ranger 4WD from 2001 to 2011, and the Mazda B4000 4WD from 2001 to 2009. So, if you own one of these models, you’re in luck.

And just to give you peace of mind, Zumbrota backs their manual transmissions with a 2-year unlimited mileage warranty. That’s right—drive it as much as you want, and you’re covered. If you’re looking for a dependable manual transmission that’s been rebuilt with care and attention to detail, you might just want to check out what Zumbrota has to offer.

The shipping fee quoted in the shopping cart includes transportation of the product to your location as well as the return of your core to the manufacturer. If you opt to send your core in advance, we offer a 50% refund on the shipping cost. However, please note that this option may prolong the overall process, so we generally advise against it.
