I have a 1993 Ranger 4wd automatic. At 1st startup loud clattering noise and some vibration felt in truck fkr a few seconds than goes away. Does not mean any fluids and no slippage. However, if I do d if I try to pull out with transmission selector in 2nd gear, I than feel slippage. If pulling out in any other gear...no problem.

    Not sure about the noise you are hearing (maybe worn valve lifters?) but as for the transmission, if it's an A4LD, you can do a number of checks---fluid check, clean the governor, adjust the vacuum modulator. and this transmission also has adjustable bands, which may improve your situation.

    Noise is really loud from transmission area.  Changed filter and fluids and vacume lines....also new vacume modulator.

    The noise will go away if I press the gas peddle and bring up the revs just by 200rpms

    How do you adjust the bands?
