Just use the motorolla box!!! You have a junk yard near you right? You can find these boxes in several different Fords
All the wires you need are already in place in your truck

So it goes like this, 1986-1994 the trucks had a stand alone 4x4 control module (remember the little box under the dash with the white  button and little red light)

in 1995 they added some of the ESOF functions to the Gem module and a small 4x4control box. This system is a PITA!!

In 2002 they went back to a stand alone 4x4 Control module...the motorolla box

Same dash switch, same shift motor controls, GEM no longer involved

So you can get your system working by wiring in the motorolla box and possibly using the 4406e motor.

The shift motors are slightly adjustable for position, remember the hash marks on the armature top plate? You may be able to adjust your current motor until you get hi and low.........if that doesnt work then use the motorolla box and possibly the 4406e shift motor.

Ill dig up the  wiring info so you can see what is involved
I can ship you one of these boxes as well, I give my stepsons $40 for each one they bring me from the junk yards, so $40 plus shipping and its yours I have about 8 of them


Any 2002-2004 Ranger under the pass kick panel you will find the motorolla box and cut the wiring pigtails too.....also 2002-04 Explorers have them and several other fords..
