Cool Tranny ???

I have a 96 F-250 power stroke 2WD with a dead automatic transmission, I've found a 98 model with a good low mileage transmission are the two compatible ??

When you say a '98 model, what do you mean? There was no '98 F250 with a PowerStroke diesel.

Your '96 likely has an E4OD (some fleet vehicles still got the old C6). What you need is an E4OD from behind a diesel, as the diesel had its own bellhousing bolt pattern, preferably a '95-'97 F250HD or F350.

The 98 model refered to is out of a box van. I've not seen it. A friend of a friend found this and says it shows 102K miles. It is a 7.3 powerstroke Diesel. As far as the E40D....I'm not sure.
Thanks for your response !

If you have overdrive, it's an E4OD. The gear indicator will read P R N (D) 2 1, plus you'll have a button on the end of the lever. If it's a C6, there won't be a button on the end of the lever, and the indicator will read P R N D 2 1.

I do have an OD W/button etc. and so does the 98. Sooooo...I assume, the 98 is compatible ? Right ?

Thanks for your help !

It should be. I'd double-check the tranny pan--if it's the same (20 bolts), then you should be good to go. I'm not sure when they switched from the E4OD to the 4R100. The 4R100 would fit, I'm sure, but may not be compatible with your computer. Those more knowledgeable than I would have to chime in.
