I am just curious-- which automatic transmissions are found in the '94-'96 F-150 302's and 351's? Did they use the AOD (what I have in my 1990) the notorious E4OD, or did they use something else? I might be looking at getting a newer truck someday and I just wanted some background information. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

About all I can think of at the moment...

 

Well I do know that the E4OD was still in use in the year model truck your talking about. But I did hear that it was changed in some sort though. I haven't researched that improvement myself but thats just what I heard.

 

i recently drove a 96' w/ 302 . it had the e4od in it .

tf what'd it run you to get your aod rebuilt?

 

Macgyver,

To tell you the truth, I'm not sure. I wanna say in the neighborhood of one grand, but don't quote me on that. I wasn't the one who had it done, the guy I bought the truck from had the tranny rebuilt. He told me how much he paid for it when I was checking everything out, but this was 2 1/2 years ago so I really can't recall exactly how much he said.

 

ok , thanks . i was just trying to get a ballpark figure to know ahead of time what mine will cost ....lol

 

I think it's more than that to get it rebuilt. now a days they just get a junk yard tranny and clean it up, check to make sure the gears are good, get a new converter and paint the housing. that is all. to get someone to build you one today i would think it be more than a grand. just my .02.

 

You're probably right, it might have been more than a grand, but like I said, I really can't remember what the exact amount was. And it might also depend on what the guy's definition of "rebuilt" is. Maybe he just had some work done to it, not necassarily an overhaul or a swap and said he had it "rebuilt" to give me some peace of mind about buying a truck with a jacked tranny. Who knows? Best thing to do is go to some tranny shops and get some quotes. I'm sure they're all familiar with the Ford AOD's!
