How to identify your transmission

How do I know what kind of transmission I have? I have a 2003 Supercrew 4x4, 5.4 automatic. Is there a tag on the transmission like the rear end or do you just have to look it up? Thanks.

AFAIK all f-150's excluding lightnings since 98 or 99 have the 4r70w.

There should actually be a sticker saying 4r70w, but ya, aside from 5 speed manuals, 4r70w's are in all, 4r100 are in Lightnings. The new tranny is a
4r75w or something like that.

Actually the "new tranny" is 4R75E -- got one in my '05 SCab.

Not necessarily I would check the sticker on the door, I have a 2000, 5.4, 4x4, Super-cab with a 4R100.

[Transmission Codes]
U — 4-speed automatic (AODEW/4R70W).
E — 4-speed automatic (4R100).
7 — 4-speed automatic (4R100).

Do you have the 7700 Package? Could you get a pic of your tranny and door sticker? It's not that I don't believe you, I just want to add it to the tranny info page as I've never seen a truck with your combo.

No 7700 group. It did come with a factory tow package, I don't know if that matters. I could not get a good pic of the tranny but I know it is a not the same as the one on my 97 2wd 4.6 which was smaller and had a different shaped pan. I have sean pictures of a 4R100 and it looks the same as my tranny.

Here are the engine/transmission options from 2001 a brochure it should be the same as 2000. The description of the 5.4's tranny "w/electronic four-speed automatic" is different than all the other tranny's. I always assumed it was referring to the 4R100, in others words all 5.4's came with the 4R100.

- 4.2L EFI V6 engine with five-speed manual O/D transmission (NA on SuperCab 4x4)
- 4.2L EFI V6 engine with four-speed automatic O/D transmission (NA on SuperCab 4x4)
- 4.6L EFI V8 engine with five-speed manual O/D transmission (standard on SuperCab 4x4)
- 4.6L EFI V8 engine with four-speed automatic O/D transmission (standard on SuperCrew)
- 5.4L EFI V8 engine w/electronic four-speed automatic O/D transmission (optional on all models)

Did you read the whole thread before you posted? Look on your door sticker.

Okay, I may sound stupid, but there is no door sticker on my 2001 F-150 Lariat, how do I figure out which tranny I have?

Crawl under and look at the trans oil pan.

4R70W (but yours won't have the drain plug):




4R100 (note the "Utah" shape):

2 types

According to this my 95 F150 Auto 2WD 302 can have 2 types of transmissions. Not sure if it helps but mine has the OD button on the shifter. Can you tell me if I'm mistaken or simply what tranny I have please? Thanks

Look at your pan. You have either a 4R70W or a E4OD. E4OD was replaced with the 4R100 around 1999 but it's essentially the same transmission. You most likely have the 4R70W.
