Ok so for the second time my transmission on my 2004 f150 has went out again so I bought a remanufactured one it’s a shift pro by ete, I’m wondering is it safe to use my edge now or should I just sell it? I was thinking that the edge is the reason my tranny went out both times because both times I put it on level 3 and ran for awhile and then guess what tranny is slipping. Does the edge cause that or was that just something within my tranny? I really don’t wanna mess this new one up but I do like the idea of the firm shifts that helps the clutches last longer. Has anyone else used an edge with a remanufactured tranny?

First Time I did it was at 207000 this time at 234000 it’s the 5.4 I hadn’t even done the first fluid change on it and it was slipping in every gear

I looked on there website and watched the video and that’s what concerns me because they changed some stuff to make it last longer and I don’t wanna use the edge and shorten the life again if that was the problem but I loved my edge even bragged about it and actually ran with a few mustangs from a running start

I’m currently waiting on a reply if they give one

Dave,

here are all the updates we do to the 4R70 transmissions.

• Six-plate direct clutch and four-plate intermediate clutch packs, standard on all models, increase durability and performance.
• New EPC solenoid installed for precise pressure control.
• New boost valve kit, pressure regulator valve, bypass converter clutch sleeve, and plunger eliminate delayed engagement, shudder, and soft shifting.
• Upgraded spiral lock snap ring and staked retainer for intermediate clutch address an OE design flaw and eliminate premature failure.
• Updated 1-2 and 2-3 accumulator pistons prevent harsh shifting and premature clutch failure.
• New overdrive servo pin sleeve installed in ETE REMAN’s servo modification process with custom-designed tooling and bushings.
• Completely remanufactured pump with new line bore bushings eliminates leaks and provides superior flow and durability.
• Fully remanufactured torque converter is tested for leaks, lockup, concentricity, and balance. Upgrades exceed OE requirements and eliminate the possibility of front seal leaks, premature bushing wear, and vibration.
• 2001 and newer models feature a new 3-4 capacity valve sleeve and an extra-thick zinc-coated Super Tough Plate to eliminate plate cracking and cross leaks caused by repeated stress from the 2-3 accumulator piston spring retainer.
• Police, towing, and performance packages include: eight-plate direct clutch pack, additional valve body modifications, elevated pressure regulator valve, and other upgrades to increase durability and load capacity.
• New custom-spec bushings improve internal fluid flow control and pressure.
• Complete road simulation testing using ETE REMAN’s proprietary dynamometer testing program called CARS (Computer- Aided Road Simulation). Every transmission is cold- and hot-tested while using Synthetec ATF, a custom-blended
fully synthetic automatic transmission fluid, and filtration system.


this is is what they told me about what all is done to it but they won’t say anything about the programmer, any ideas?

I don’t wanna sell it I like it I think it made a day and night difference and I’d really like to use it again. There has to be someone who has either used it before or using it now on a remanufactured

Actually I’m not gonna use it I read up a lot since posting this and see that it’s rough on transmissions, probably why I’ve had 2 go out already so I’m done with it I’ll either sell it and get a sct or use it for the gauges
