Magnetic Drain Plug?
Can anyone tell me if the transmission pan drain plug on a '99 F-250 4x4 has a magnet in it?

I've got a '93 Lightning with an E40D and have replaced the OEM trans pan with one from a '99 F250 4x4. I think the pan is for a 4R100.

Is the plug magnetized?

I can't tell you for sure year to year and model to model but my 4r70w has a large diameter magnet on a locator in the stock pan.
I went to a deep alum pan and it had a location to place this large magnet as well as having a small magnet in the pan plug.

The plug is not magentized. Ford puts a magnet in the pan, but not a magnet in the drian plug.
