it was a junkyard trans... I was told it came out of a 80k mile v6 mustang.What kind of miles were on it or do you think something in the controller caused the damage?
I have had this one for over a yearWarranty? Most salvage yards give only thirty days from purchase date.
Some will work with you, some won't.
Yes,..., but you’d have to buy an aftermarket bellhousing for an AOD, that bolts to the front pump. I have a 10” l/u converter..You just have to have it cut apart, and have the Ford mating flange put back on it. Hardened 2 pc input shaft, deep pan, better bands, alto red cutches..It’s just sitting here..Ok guys I have basically figured out what I want to do... unless someone has a better idea.
Full rebuild of the trans with the silver fox kit or equivalent... rebuild my valve body.... I still need a torque convertor
unless @CarMichael Angelo convinces me to just get his transmission.... Mike can that thing be converted back to auto shift with just a valvebody?
I will give you a call tonight.Yes,..., but you’d have to buy an aftermarket bellhousing for an AOD, that bolts to the front pump.

I think I have a the same problem with the Sprag/diode on my wife's 96 GT and its 4R70W. It will not shift into 2nd in drive. You have to get above 30 in first and feather the throttle a bit and it will shift into 3rd and then OD but no 2nd. However, you can manually shift it into 2nd and it will stay but slips a little on the upper RPM. When the car is cold in the morning, it doesn't slip hardly any 2nd. No slipping noticed in any other gear. Car only has 121K on the clock and the transmission has been messed up for the last 20K or so. Still drives ok but definitely not fun to drive without 2nd. I was going to do a 5 speed swap on the car because she and I both prefer manuals but I have enough projects and cant afford to have this car down for long time so I think with our tax return I am going to have the transmission rebuilt and be done. Seems like the sprag/diode thing is a common problem with these transmissions especially on the earlier ones. Hope you get yours figured out.Well gents... I checked it all dropped the VB triple checked the shift kit ect... retorque the VB and still no 2nd... not even when it's in manual 2nd.. I found a good amount of silver in the trans fluid so I am going to assume it's a sprag/diode isse... f$%k man I cant catch a break.
Gonna call silver fox performance in the morning. As much as I appreciate the offer @CarMichael Angelo I want an electronic transmission... I think I am going to order the 700 kit from them.
admit it... you just looked at the pictures right?After catching up from page 180ish I'm unsure of what to do with my down time at work. Digging the progress. I can't wait until this is on the road!
