E4OD Slams into second

E4OD Slams into second
The older ones (late 80's) were not the best, but now with all the upgrades and redesigned parts, they are more than sturdy enough.
I install some of the parts into my C6 trans (like I put in the aluminum 4 pinion planetary is good for 500 HP and if needed, the 6 pinion planetary is good for 800 HP or so easy)
The problem you have is that the center support is worn out on the inner sealing surface and that gives a hard one/two shift, and it has nothing what so ever to do with reverse.
It will need to be rebuilt and the exchanged trans will have the updated parts.
It will cost you a bundle like all the other computer controlled automatic over drives, and a used one from a wrecking yard is still a bit pricy for a gamble also.
The E4OD was the first trans I learned how to rebuild when I worked for a ford dealer.
