My swap is getting closer to happening nd I have decided to stick with an automatic Transmission, I like the manual trans but its time for something easier to drive in this SoCal Traffic.

Any comments are welcome, please feel free !

Which automatic transmission will be the best to use in the follow 5/0L/Ranger Swap.

2003 Ford Ranger Short Bed Standard 2-dr Cab.
Is now manual, with just one the 100K mark.
Motor wiring will be a "Three-Wire Harness, not an Explorer 5.0L Swap"
Which ever Trans I pick, it will need to be modifiable for an AtlasII T/C.

I've been thinking the A4OD would be the best idea, it will bolt up to the 5.0L and is relatively compact.
I've thought about a newer six speed but size and money are both big factors.

Any other thoughts on what to use ?

Thanks ahead of time, appreciate all the input on other threads !
