Transmission swap issue
I'm replacing my tranmission in my 97 Explorer and the until I was shipped did not have the overdrive drum sensor. I was referenced Ford tsb 97-20-19 as addressing how to utilize the single speed sensor unit where I once had the the 2 speed sensor type. Anyone have this TSB 97-20-19 or thoughts on this?
Any help much appreciated!
