I just want to say thank you for encouraging me to do mine. I actually don’t think I would have done this job if it wasn’t for you. With your video I was able to drop mine with the ratchet strap and floor jack method and it worked almost perfectly. Anyone who is hesitant about this, you can definitely do it

It’s excellent to be able to watch these videos from somebody that knows what they’re doing right now. I am trying to figure out how to bolt up a torque converter with the studs on it when installing this transmission, I’ve got the stud lined up where the starter goes the only place I could barely see, and it’s lined up and wants to go through, but how do you pull it through so you can get a bolt on it I imagine I’m gonna figure it out sooner or later anyways thank you for the videos

Ya, I got lucky they don't shipped Transmissions up here, Unless you know a guy at Napa Auto Parts. I've worked outside most my Crane & boom trucks commercial electric lighting company contractor. Being trained by real men. So when I became a Contractor. Nothing scared me anymore. Until I moved to Alaska. This is where boys become men. No Joke.

So basically if u take one of those air hammers, you can blast the old bolt and nut into the box frame. Then in the side of the frame there is a small access hole. You can drop a brand new bolt down that hole, have the threads come thru and put a nice stainless nut. That’s how I always go about that issue.

Quick question...that connector on the ECU harness that goes into the solenoid box in the pan... How likely are those to fail and how likely are the wires to corrode or burn up from transmission heat ? My moms 5r55S all of a sudden went in limp mode out and throwing low circuit codes for shift B and C pressure solenoids and the Torque Converter Clutch out of nowhere and I bet it has something to do with that connector or the wiring from it to the ECU... If not, it's the solenoid pack itself, which is like $400..🤦🏾‍♂

I currently have the 5r55e with close ratio and a 4.10 axle ratio. I am wondering if I could remove it and install a 5r55w with wide ration and change my axle ratio to 3.55. This would give me better highway economy and lower engine rpm’s and still give me the good acceleration because of the lower first and second gears in the 55w. Wondering if this would be a direct fit? Am I going to run into electronic problems? Will it plug and play?

Install a real mechanical oil pressure gauge to get a accurate reading of what you have.

I'm looking or someone that can tell me if the 55s and 55w will go in place of a 55e. I want the lower 1st and second gear for my ranger with same top gear ratios. dont want to do axle gears because it effects the highway rpm also.

The computer won’t recognize the internals of different transmissions. You have to keep the OE 55e.

I bought a 2003 explorer with 210k miles for $600. Owner thought it threw a rod or worn bearing after hearing a loud rattle coming from within the engine and didn't want to fix it. After doing some research I believe it's the infamous 4.0 sohc death rattle coming from the front timing chain. It also needs a valve cover gasket and there is oil one of the spark plugs as well as rear diff is leaking fluid. Other than the engine problems, the condition of this car is a solid A. Tires are brand new including spare, absolutely no damage to the body other than that notorious crack down the back hatch. Interior is pretty pristine for an 03. It has no rust at all. All of the electronics work. AC blows ice cold. I'm sure the transmission is reaching the end but as of now still works well. My question is, what should I do with it. I really need another vehicle that can pull a medium trailer and would consider having it fixed if it made sense to do so. Would it be worth it to pull the engine and replace the timing components and gaskets or is the engine past its expiration date? Buying a used engine seems like a dice roll and hooking a reman to a 200k transmission doesn't seem to sensible. I'd appreciate some guidance! thanks!
