The E4OD I had behind my modified PSD did just fine pulling loads heavier than that, on and off highway. And there's no such thing as flat ground where I'm at.
I'm not positive, but I remember the auto trucks being rated for higher towing capacities than the 5 speeds.

You can build/ or buy a well built E4OD relatively cheaply.

Rebuilt Transmission - Ford Transmissions - E4OD - Monster Transmission and Performance

ask about up grades over stock for about 3000 you can get one that will tow 16000 lbs and it comes with a stall converter

Forward clutch is dead.

Rebuild it. Find a good shop. Put some $$$$ into it if you want it to last.

The E4OD is one of those deals. You get what you pay for. Most people will put a couple of bucks into the tranny, then call it junk when it fails.

2wd or 4wd?

seems like worth a call to see if she came from the diesel.

that's 2wd.

still.you know,with proof of miles and if he was willing to provide money back after a trans shop inspection,and if its for a diesel,you could pay a shop to swap the guts into your 4wd case and save some $during this transfer,they could inspect things/replace as needed to save some $.that could turn into a nightmare if your not careful though.you know how things like this go sometimes when trying to save. sometimes it comes back to bite ya.
