    Consider this tranny configuration

    I feel for you man. I have an 02 and this spring Ford replaced the Torque converter and front pump under my extended warranty.Thank god I bought that when I bought my truck. I offered to replace the torque converter with a good aftermarket billet one and save them the cost but they wouldn't do...

    Torque Converter Question

    Thanks for the help. The ATS 5 star looks pretty impressive.

    Transmission OD question

    The silver box under the frame rail is probably a Banks Transcommand module. I have one. Helps your tranny shift firmer. They work great. I've had one for 2 years.

    Torque Converter Question

    I recently talked to a tranny shop guy who told me that all Ford 4R100 TC's after 99 were made with triple clutches . I was considering a Banks Converter but he said I would be wasting money and that he could build one just as tough. Can anyone give me some info on the stock TC? Thanks.

    6.4L Discussion Information

    I spoke to a Ford New car salesman last week here in Alberta and he said they just got word that the 6.4 won't be out until July of 08. Anyone hear the latest on when they're out for sale?

    Aux transmission cooler recommendations

    No offence but I switched to the 6.0 cooler out of an 04 model last year and what a huge difference. The 6.0 cooler is about 2,5 times larger than the one in your truck. I also installed an aftermarket tranny gauge and you can really see the difference. I installed the gauge before I changed the...

    Trans cooler questions

    The stock 02 tranny cooler has a 3/8 inch line and the 6.0 has a 1/2 inch line. It is an easy bolt in replacement for the 02 model.The bolt holes line up perfectly. All you have to do is reduce the line from 1/2 to 3/8. I did the change last summer and what a difference. All you need is...

    Lift kit swap?

    Lift kit swap?

    The important thing is that you be careful. The truck weighs a lot so don't cheap on jack stands. I used 6 ton stands for the truck and 3 ton stands for the axles. Your gonna need some big wrenches and sockets. A 3/4 drive set would be a bonus. You'll need a torque wrench. You can probably get a...

    Gears: thinking of switching from 410 to 456?

    I have 4.30 gears and am running 37 inch Goodyear MTR's. Actual height is about 36 inches. I'm running just under 2200 at 70 MPH.

    Rear Axle Ratio

    4.10 was not an option on a Diesel up to 2002. Only in the 5.4 and 6.8 V10. Unless your diesel was a dually. I still have the original books from ordering mine.

    2001 f350 tranny issue

    A lot of the tranny problems occur when you boost up the engine power which is so tempting and easy to do. Get a larger tranny(or add another)cooler and a tranny temp gauge. Heat is one of the big killers. I switched to a cooler out of an 04. Made a huge difference.

    Rear Axle Ratio

    All the SRW come with 3.73 unless someome changes it like I did. The dually is usually a 4.10.

    Dont' know but?

    I assume there will be another different tranny as well?

    Now the bad news

    I've had a Detroit Locker in mine since new and haven't ever encountered any slop. I love it and if I bought a new truck tomorrow my wife would insist I install a DL in that one as well. But I hope your repairs are not too expensive.

    Highly Pissed off....

    I believe the trucks with the 6.0 have a cooler that is about 2.5 times bigger then the 7.3. I replaced mine with an 04 cooler last year. Made a huge difference.

    Dont' know but?

    I read somewhere just recently that the 6.4 is a bored out 6.0. Don't know how true that is. :dunno

    It was definitely the front pump. Ford is covering the repair which is great. :sweet

    Need Tranny Help

    Well the valve didn't cure the problem. I took it to the dealer and the shop foreman informed me today that it was a sticky part in the front pump. My truck has a premium warranty but because I have modified my truck they may not warranty it. Even though the mods have nothing to do with causing...

    What comfort upgrades have you done?

    I installed a Pioneed Avic-N2 navigation unit with voice command and a rear camera. My wife tells me I could get lost in a paper bag so she and my daughter bought it for me. I was really hurt and told them I resembled that remark. It sure works great though. Especially with maps of all of...

    Gauges will be in soon! pre or post turbo!

    Pre is definitely the best. I had the sensor installed and they put it in post turbo but I made them change it. There was a difference of almost 150F at 70 mph.

    Need Tranny Help

    Actually I never mentioned going to the store. I went for a drive( about 35 miles) prior to the overheating problem. But I think I may have found the problem. It's fairly cool today and with the fluid temp level okay I went for a drive. After about 15 miles my autometer gauge was around 170...
