AOD identification

Guys,
I have a 5.0 HO that I'm putting into a 54 Ford and I'm looking for a 92-93 truck AOD to mate to it. I've read from tranny sites that these were the strongest stock AOD's that Ford built. Some of these trucks had a wide range gear ratio that had first as 2.84:1 second 1.55:1 instead of the standard AOD which was first 2.40:1 and second 1.47:1. How can you easlily tell these apart? Part#? Thanks for all your help in advance.
Mike

AOD Identification

I have just purchased an AOD Transmission which I was told came out of an F150 from around 1988, but I would like to be sure
I have spent the last two days trying to identify it from various charts but it seems that I cannot find anything around the 1987-1988 model
The ID Tag shows PKB J12
under that is 011366 H10
Under that is E7TP 8AB
I am hoping someone her can send me a link with the right info on it or have the information I would like.

Thanks in advance
Regards
Bill in Oz

Someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the E7 in that last number denotes 1987. Disclaimer: I just wrote up and have not had coffee yet!!!

The letter denotes decade and I believe E is 1980. The number is year in the decade. Now depending on the number, it could be a part that was introduced in 1987, and remained unchanged, and used in subsequent years. One of the letters behind the E7 will denote vehicle line, but that is really getting back into the cobwebs for me

Thank you

AFAIK, I don't think Ford ever made a wide-ratio AOD from the factory. The lineage went AOD '79-92, AOD-E '93-'94 (Electronic controlled AOD instead of that troublesome TV cable), then in '95 the 4R70W was introduced by adding wide-ratio gearing to the aforementioned electronically-controlled AOD-E.

I had my buddy build a custom wide-ratio AOD for me - made by using the wide-ratio 4R70W internals in the AOD case, and still mechanically controlled by the TV cable since my car has no computers (stand-alone trans controllers were rare and expensive)...My particular trans was built with all of the heaviest-duty drums/clutches/bands/sprag since it is used behind a 600+hp 395W. I used a broader Performance inner input shaft since I am still wanting converter lockup in D and OD. Also, it is using a Silverfox SPT-R valvebody that allows for full manual control of shifting at the track, but also retains auto shifting when driving on the street.

There was never a factory wide ratio AOD. E7 is an updated case casting as the AOD came out in 1980...the best are the 92/93. I would not consider them stronger, but they should have any and all hydraulic improvements available and would be the best cores to build a unit from for anyone as they were the end of the line. I have never seen a truck with anything other than the B servo.

Also this thread is nearly 20 years old.
