According to rockauto.com you only have 2 choices. See if one of them matches your pan configuration.

The OEM gasket is reusable, it doesn't require replacement unless damaged.

I know he wanted the filter, I was trying to help him identify his transmission by starting with the pan configuration.

Can I just use the Fram FT1167A? I lazily identified it on Amazon, which I sort-of trust.
They say it's a match.
Is there any animus toward Fram transmission filters here as there often is for the orange can of death oil filter?
Does the exact filter for the 4R75E vary depending on coolers and other diffferences?
Motorcraft also says the FT-138 and FT-147 are possible if it has "pump inlet filter" or "pump shaft strainer". FT-182 and FT-183 are choices if you have the "heavy duty aux trans oil cooler". So for Motorcraft, how can I possibly know??

You're overthinking this. If you're going to do a fluid and filter change, just go do it. The Motorcraft filter is only $18 on Amazon, $40 at your local parts store.

Thanks, SHO89.
So you advocate for the FT-105. Interestingly, Amazon indicates that is NOT the right filter for the Mark LT (2008), so your suspicions of them are well-founded.
More interestingly to me, the FT-105 is the same filter for my 2005 Lincoln Town Car.
Does the Town Car really have the same transmission as a large truck? Amazing if so.
I'd never use the Town Car to tow anything, but perhaps I can.(?)

Go to fordparts.com and click on "Buyer's Guide". It returns 2,953 total applications ranging from 1996 to 2017 model years for the "FT-105".
The same filter is used on all of the transmissions based on the same basic design, there have been several generations of them over the last 20 years. It has nothing to do with the towing capacity (or lack thereof) of your Town Car.
