I got a 94 F350 with that trans. I had to spend $1600 to have it redone, and I took it out and put it in. I've got other Fords with the C-6 and FMX and they just work and work. That E4od is not that great. Trans shop said yea, 150,000. miles is good for one of them. Oh, really now??? I do not like the electric/computer doing the shifting. That and the pain in the butt of having to push the OD button every time the engine starts to keep it out of OD, like for just running around town. I have used it a few times with trailer and tractor behind and not impressed. I'd like to find something else that would work that has throttle and road speed to control the shift. I have wondered if there is a 5 or 6 speed Allison that would work, like out of a garbage truck. The only draw back to the C-6 was it is only 3 speeds but they did the job, saw lots of them goin' 75 mph on the freeways out west. One of the common problems with the E4od is the solenoid shift module. If you have erratic up or down shifts that may be the whole trouble. It can be changed with the pan off, "rebuilt" units can be bought. I wanted to tear my old one apart but it went back as a core. Send me a note if you want with more ??? George S.
