Pretty much just the name. The 4r100 is an e40d transmission. The only difference is depending on what year your transmission was made. If you have an E40d repair manual you will be good to go for most everything, you might also want to get a revisions update as that is where the differences will be. I found that I referenced my revisions manual more than the repair manual when I rebuild mine. Some of the parts that have been updated replace obsoleted parts, so depending on what you replace you may have to replace the complimentary part as well.
Check out Suncoast.com and brianstruckshop.com for some more info. If you are going to rebuild it your self, I suggest transgo HD/2 repro kit, Eagle Red alto clutches and Kolene steels. From the research I did, sounded like they are the best, and the top two tranny repair shops mentions frequently here use them as well. I ordered all my stuff together including a triple disc converter for 1200 from transmission exchange. So far I am very happy, didn't realize how much the dang thing slipped prior to the rebuild.

I did a E4OD over the winter and the parts kit said 4R100. I haven't had my 4R100 next to it to see if its only the plugs. I have had the valve bodys side by side and that all looks the same. Kind of like a C6 with overdrive and electronics.

It is just the ouside casing or cover to the plug. The actual pin layout of the plug is the same.

Hi everyone I just had a quick question I have a 96 Ford Bronco with a 5.8 liter with a E4od transmission 4x4. My question is a buddy of mine has a 2000 Ford 7.3 powerstroke that I was wondering about swapping out with my 5.8 liter will I have to change the transmission out or will I be able to put it right up to the original transmission.

I know this thread is ten years old but just to clear up any confusion for the newcomers...

I have loose E4OD gas and diesel and a diesel 4R100. I am going to build an album. Is there any interest here regarding what it should contain and where it should be posted?
The scope of my intent is what I take this thread to be. "What is the difference" usually starts with "I have this transmission, what is it", or I am looking for a particular transmission, how will I recognize one?
What to do with it after I have it is rather well covered by the existing manuals and valve body kits. I intend to reference a couple of those.
I have built an E4OD and I have a 4R100 to build, soon I hope.

A build thread with pics of the procedures and updated parts can be very helpful and welcome. It can go in the Tech Folder stickied at the top of the page.
PM our mod Sous and pitch the idea.
