Its very possibly either a broken flex plate or unbolted tork converter. My flex plate broke 3/4 of the way around and made intermiten growling noises. A different Ford I owned had only two tork converter bolts instead of three and one was loose and it made all sorts of ugly noises.
NO. A knocking noise in the engine is a problem in the engine.

Your transmission fluid might be low.
Do you need the engine to be running when adding transmission fluid to a 1995 ford aerostar
Its my understanding that the 92 and 93 Tranny is the same for the two years. It might make a difference if one is a electronic 4-wheel drive and the other is not.
I'm not a mechanic / technician but I believe it can if the automatic transmission uses a modulator valve that has a vacuum line connected to it because the vacuum comes from the engine . If there is a problem with the modulator valve then the transmission fluid could be sucked into the engine
A loud knocking noise in the motor of a car at high speeds is most likely the engine. There could be another issue with the transmission if the knocking only happens at high speeds.
3.0 Liter V6: freeze plug
knocking noise
I have researched this question to an extent and according to what I have found, if you have a 3.0 engine the transmission out of another ford with a 3.0 engine only will fit.
( No ) the 1997 Ford Explorer uses automatic transmissions that are ELECTRONICALLY controlled , where the 1992 model year is not ( P.S. I'm not a mechanic / technician )
