To some it is a challenge to simply disassemble and assemble a Ford transmission. BD's challenge was to examine the mechanical design and study the shift strategy with the goal to improve the durability and driving experience. The normal smooth shifting associated with Ford transmissions produces heat and advanced wear that severely shortens life. The BD transmission and convertor clutches are mechanically and pneumatically designed not to slip. The new shift strategy change results in "Quick Sharp Shifts."

Enhancements to achieve this include new control valve designs, higher pressures as well as improved internal oil flow enhancements of the existing port sizes. Additional oil passages have been added to route the oil to assist the current Ford splash lubrication design. Torque load capacity was improved by adding 33% more clutch surface to each of the 4 clutch packs. The planetary gear packs are special high strength steel and the new heavy duty roller one way Sprague clutches maintain directional stability and dont explode. Each transmissions shift pattern and oil pressures are tested on BD {pwer's Transmission Dynamometer then matched to a torque convertor and packaged in durable plastic molded cases for shipping.

Note: Transmission core may be required up front. Please call for availability before ordering. Torque converter not included.

Warranty Note:

A new BD-Power Torque Converter must be installed at the time of installation of a BD-Power Transmission. Use of a 3rd party or OE Torque Converter will void transmission warranty.
