1994 f150 e4od into a 1997 f250hd?
I picked up a 1997 f250hd 4x4 with a 351 that has a bad e40d trans but is otherwise in great shape. There is a 1994 f150 4x4 with a 351 and a e40d being parted out locally that I can get the trans from. Would this be a bolt up or is there differences because of the year/models? I don't know much about the gasser drivetrains as all my rigs are diesels, but I couldn't pass up this f250 for free! Thanks for any advice- Scott

A 1994 E4OD is inferior to the 1997 E4OD but should bolt up OK.
You will need to put the solenoid shift pack out of the 97 E4OD into the 1994 E4OD.
The 1997 computer is not programed for the type of clutch pack the 1994 has but I do not think you will know the difference.
The TR sensor may have a different plug on it also. If you swap the TR sensors make sure you line up the neutral marks when you adjust it in neutral.

The TR sensor is the Transmission Range sensor on the drivers side of the transmission.
The 94 solenoid shift pack has the coil damper diodes mounted on the solenoid shift pack.
In 1997 they had been moved to the PCM Computer. So if you use the 94 solenoid shift pack that has a different plug on it also you would have two sets of damper diodes.
I do not know of any one who has tried running two sets so I do not know what would happen. May be nothing. If you do let us know how it works.
But you will still have to put a new pig tail on the trucks wiring for the old type solenoid shift packs plug.

manually shift your trans into 1st gear.
do you have forward now? if so.it's not time for a trans replacement just yet.
when it comes to the E40D.never start by asking which donors may work.always start by providing symptoms of current trans.
9 times out of 10,it's just something electrical,brother.

There are always some changes inside the transmission from year to year as no two years E4OD transmissions are the same.
Yes you can ohm out the coils or put a 9VDV battery across them and they will make a click sound.

No the 1996 would be the same. The only difference between the 1995 and the 1997 operating would be the different type clutch pack and the programing for them in the computer so a 1995 would work for you also plug and play.

The damper diodes was moved from the transmission to the computer in 1995. So when the shop rebuilds a transmission for a 1994 the would use the 1989-1994 solenoid clutch pack. If they did not they would be unable to plug the transmission in after they installed it.

Captain,
I would guess none of those items. The transmission only shifts when the computer tells it too. Assuming you have the gear pointer pointing at OD and you have not turned OD off with the button on the end of the stalk.
You need to see if you have any codes in CM.
If no codes you may have a bad TPS.
Does the speedometer work OK?
