I finally got in my new tranny. I decided to pick it up from SPM. Terry said they had one taken apart in their shop and said it was a good tranny, so I was like what the heck I will give it a try. My old tranny went out due to a broken motor mount that I had no idea about. The mount that is on top of the tranny was broke. The bolt was just broke right in half. Anyway i took it to the track and had massive wheel hop. It broke the part in the diff where the splines hold in the axel. But i thought i would share a couple of pics of the tranny tear out. Cost me more then i thought it was going to be, we kept finding little things that needed to be replaced. Like, speed sensor, new wiring harness for new backup light switch, bolt for broke motor mount, and other misc. things. I can not figure out what shift tower i have now. it is not the same tower as the stock one. i searched around a lot but can not figure out if it is a cougar or focus tower. What are the benefits of the focus tower anyway? Also added a Spec Stage 1, along with the honey fluid, and some poly mounts. i have not posted that much at all, i am more of a reader, but i will post a pic of my car that way you all can see her. oh and BTW a tranny swap if not fun at all. I would not recommend it without access to a lift and some well knowledge friends. Dont know what I would have done without discounts on my parts since I would at a local shop, or without shane. Can you belive that, Shane the local honda guy at the shop, helped me fix my ford. LMFAO!! Thanks Shane!! Thanks for the feedback.
And yes lthat is my friends Reline in the back. That thing has been in the shop more then he has been able to drive it.
Here is the mount that the bolt broke in. It was the bolt that went into the bottom of the mount. Those would not have been sodas with we where not at work.
Speed sensor was a pain in the ass to get. Ford did not even know what we were talking about.
