Thanks for the clarification on what tranny i had, but according to chris, its not exactly the same as the ford factory 4r70w. Apparently this guy builds transmissions for dragsters, and ishis shop is a performance tranny and engine shop, so maybe ill get hooked up with some better parts. Ill post the list of what was put in when i get the car and receipt.

Tell em to swap in a 4R70W in there or your going to blow that motherf***ing dealership up!

Sorry but it already has one. The AODE hasn't been used since 1993 or so. That is direct from my Ford CD.
Automatic Transmission
The 4R70W has the following features:
l Wide ratio gears
l Four speeds
l Rear wheel drive
l Automatic
l Electronic shift
l Torque converter clutch control
l Line pressure controls
The transmission uses Ravigneaux-style double-pinion gearset with two bands, one one-way roller clutch, one mechanical diode and four friction clutches to produce four forward gears and Reverse.

so you guys know.. i posted a new thread about the aode and 4r70w transmissions. there are two articles the second one specifies when they were produced... the 4R70W was available in 1996+ with few exceptions everything below 1996 has AOD-E

I bet you won't if you don't ask for them.

RE: Automatic Transmission is F*cked up!!!!!!!
actually 96-04 AODE and 4r70W are the same transmissions. i believe AODE is just a widely used named for electronically controlled transimissions, hence A(automatic) OD(overdrive) E(electronically)
atleast that's what i'd be guessing it stands for, but AOD-E and 4r70W trannys in 96-04 stangs are the same thing.

4R70W
A revised version of the AODE was released in 1993 with the Lincoln Mark VIII. 4R70W stands for 4 gears, Rearwheeldrive, 70x10=700 ftlb load capacity at the output of the torque converter and Wide gear ratio. It has lower 1st and 2nd gear ratios for better take-off acceleration and improved gearset strength. On vehicles powered by a 5.4 L V8, a stronger gearset is used than in normal duty 4R70Ws. In 1998, due to durability concerns, the intermediate one-way roller clutch was replaced with a mechanical diode providing extra holding capacity and longer service.
The gear ratios are: 1st: 2.84:1 2nd: 1.55:1 3rd: 1.00:1 4th: 0.70:1 Rev: 2.23:1
Applications:
[ul][ul][*]1993–1998 Lincoln Mark VIII[*]1993–2003 Ford F-Series[*]1994–1997 Ford Thunderbird[*]1995–1998 Lincoln Mark VIII[*]1995–2004 Ford Crown Victoria[*]1996–2001 Ford Explorer[*]1993–2004 Lincoln Town Car[*]1994–1997 Mercury Cougar[*]1995–2004 Mercury Grand Marquis[*]1997–2004 Ford Expedition[*]1997–2001 Mercury Mountaineer[*]1994–2004 Ford Mustang[/ul][/ul]
With all the new components added to the 4R70w since 1993, Ford decided to designate newer transmissions with the name 4R75W so that an older transmission would not be used in the newer vehicles.
The most popular modification for the 4R70W is the "J-mod". It is a shift kit specified by one of the Ford engineers that designed the transmission. It offers quicker shifting, smoother operation, and increase service life. All parts can be bought at Ford dealers for less than $60.
A 20,000+ GVW cooler is highly recommended with or without a shift kit. Breakdown of the friction modifier in the fluid often results in "converter shudder" (feels like driving over rumble strips) where converter tries to lock up, but slips.
