just replaced the tranny fluid in my ranger and 2nd gear grinds really bad, any ideas or will i just have to get a new tranny?
 
I am not too familiar with it either, I am sure you will get a good response from member Brinker88, he is the man with that stuff
 
A buddy of mine has a 96 Cherokee. His made a grinding pretty bad. He ended up needing a new transmission. He tried changing the fluid with Royal Purple, but only helped for a week. Like Hooligan said, talk to Brinker88. He knows his stuff.
 
i put dex/merc in it, and i drove it around today and i can throw it into gear really hard and that some what helps but i also dont really need 2nd my 3rd gear speeds up really fast
 
Usually if a synchro is bad, it will be 2nd, 4th, and reverse.


Probably a bad gear.

You can try Lucas trans treatment, but no promises, could make things worse. I would say save for a JY tranny and swap, then rebuild your current tranny while using the JY one.
