    2001 Sport Trac 4x4 5R55E Removal

    Anyone have the R&R manual for the transmission on my baby? I've got the book to rehab the tranny itself, thanks. Looking for a good video or PDF. Thanks!!!!

    Ordered the rebuild kit from Whatever It Takes Transmission site - new stuff on the way. Ordering a trans jack from Harbor Freight. I'm gonna take a Mercon V shower! and rebuild it myself - never had such a fun challenge to look forward to. Local shops want $4500 to take out and put in a rebuilt...

    Well, drove great for a little while - Check engine light and Overdrive light flashing ... stopped by AAMCO and they pulled a P0715 code. Looks like it is a speed sensor ...

    Ok, took almost 8 quarts of Mercon V - shifting flawlessly and so quietly so far!! Gonna take to shop and have bands torqued by a pro since I don't have the tools for that small area! I hope this works long term!!

    Ok, kids - how in the heck to you access the area to adjust the tranny bands? Geeze ... take off the 4WD drive bar and shift linkages? What a pain in the arse. Can't find a video on this.

    Alrighty, here's an update - decided to just get a rebuilt valvebody since it didn't have Sonnax updates that I could determine. Was about the same after the core charge as just replacing the solenoids and such. Used https://www.wittrans.com/ Whatever it takes transmissions. Arrives tomorrow...

    Well, I've gotten this far - neither gasket blown out ... I'll put her back together with new gaskets, re-torque all, and new filter - re-torque bands. Question, should I go ahead and have vbody rebuilt/check solenoids while I'm this far in? Don't know the cost yet.

    Friends, back again with my 2001 Sport trac - it shifts perfectly when cold, but once warmed up, shifting from 1st to 2nd, and 2nd to 3rd are very lumpy and jerky. Can prevent jerk if let off the gas during then shift ... continues getting worse and worse as it heats up. Any thoughts? Thanks...
