My dad is currently looking at buying a new F-250 to replace my moms explorer. He is planning on getting a 5.4 w/ Torqshift auto. Has anyone experienced any issues with the Torqshift. Thanks in advance!

 

Can you get the 5.4 ltr with the torqshift? I was under the impression that you can only get it with the powerstroke or the V10.

 

I haven't seen too many negative posts about the torqshift on the site. That's usually a good indication that it's been pretty reliable.

 

Since '05 the TorqShift is the only auto in the F250-F550 with all three engines.

 

the ts is a big strong unit and the only one i have worked on for a problem was in a high miles plow truck and all that was wrong was worn out clutch packs on the later ones the early ones had a planitary gear set problem that ford modified with bigger sets in mid 05. apart it looks a big as a alison from gm.
enjoy the new ride and don't worry. i imm don't think a 5.4 can pull that one apart very fast.

 

i have an 05 250 with the torqueshift hadda have it rebuilt cause the electronic valvebody crapped out and some clutch plates needed changing. other then that its great youll like it lol just dont break it cause its expensive as hell to fix
